Unfortunately this year we won’t be doing as much socializing as years before but we’re definitely keeping busy and having fun! We took our first trip to Winter Wonderland and loved it! CC wasn’t ready to test her footing on the rides but she did persuade me to go down the gigantic inflatable slide with her. Thankfully, my hearing has been fully restored but I may need an extra trip to the chiropractor!
This past weekend was our first Breakfast w/ Santa of the season. CC was having fun exploring and laughing with the other kids while we patiently waited our turn to sit on Santa’s lap. She hugged Mrs. Claus and bounded right up to the Christmas tree only to stop like a reindeer in headlights when she saw the big man in red. She clung to me, like only a toddler can do, so you can imagine the not so flattering pictures of me trying to console her. At last I was able to pry her fingers from my sweater and slip away just in time to see her calmly look Santa in the eye. I breathed a sigh of relief at the stillness of the moment and snapped my fingers to get her attention for the camera….
Next up a week of gingerbread houses, baking, holiday show, zoo lights, and of course another attempt at a picture with Santa!
