1st Santa Visit

Our little muffin man had his first visit with Santa Claus.  I was so excited to take him.  As soon as he woke up from his morning nap we got him cleaned up and dressed in his red Christmas clothes, threw his diaper bag together and headed out.  We were so rushed.  I forgot to feed him his lunch and after refilling his snack container I left it on Tyler's dresser.  Poor kid.  He's so good though he didn't fuss and had to wait until 2:30pm for his lunch.

Santa visit was a success.  We instructed Santa not to speak.  I placed Declan on Santa's lap and he didn't even notice where he was.  He saw that his picture was being taken and that always makes him happy so it was all smiles.  His left arm was stuck out weird in the photos so I ran in to adjust it and Santa helped by holding his hands.  That drew Declan's attention to Santa.  He looked up at him.  It looked so sweet but what was really happening is that Declan was looking at him in a "I think I'm afraid of you" manner.  There was a little stare off and then he looked back at us in fear...then he opened his mouth and started to cry without any noise.  Poor bud.  He's such a trooper.  We are so happy to have our little guy's first Santa picture and so excited to be entering our first Christmas season with our little prince.
