Santa! Santa! Santa!

There's absolutely ZERO fear of the big guy this year in the eyes of our 3-but-nearly-4-year-old sweet Kinsley!  She is ALL ABOUT SANTA!!!  It has been SOOO much fun!  Our sweet Carter, on the other hand, is still trying to warm up to the idea of him.  We have had so much fun this December...with our official Santa visit at Bass Pro Shop (for the second year in a row) last weekend (12/14) and then breakfast with Santa and Mrs. Clause this morning (12/21).  We are LOVING this time of year!!!

Both of our kiddos!  "Love" for Santa on one side, and "not-so-much-love" on the other!  But just a priceless moment! 
I'm sorry - but this is too cute...
These next shots were taken in rapid sucession….notice Kinsley's facial expression beginning to change.
"Carter, don't worry...we've been good this year, there's no need to cry."
"Um, mom, he is ruining this for us - we'll never make the Nice List now!"
"Carrrterrr…come onnnn.  Stop crying!" 
"Mom, seriously can you come get him already???"
"Ahhh, all by myself - that's better!"

Ahhhh, finally getting around to discussing to THE LIST!
Yes!!  A candycane!!
(Which she loves in theory, but hates the taste of them…too funny)!
Ending the night with a carousel ride, of course!
***Breakfast With Santa***

Best seat in the house!
No problem hopping up in Santa's lap! 
Sweet Kinsley with Santa and Mrs. Clause!
We tried a photo with the three of us, but Carter wasn't having any part of it…too close.
Telling him what she wants for Christmas - you know, in case he forgot since their visit last weekend.
"Mom, they are right behnd me, aren't they?"
Having a deep discussion with the man in red…she was so excited he came over to our table!

***YAY!!!!  ONLY 4 MORE DAYS UNTIL CHRISTMAS!!!***
