Here Comes Santa Claus...

So this morning was our neighborhood's annual kiddy Christmas party. Ava got to do arts and crafts (decorating a paper tree) before meeting the big man herself. I thought she'd totally freak out, cry, and not want to sit on his lap, but she proved me wrong! All I had to tell her was that Santa had a present for her if she sat on his lap. She knew that it was candy, and you can see from the picture she was more interested in getting her candy cane than really talking to Santa :)



Ava also got a new book from the Hopes for Christmas. It's a lift-the-flap Little People Christmas book and she loves it. Her favorite thing to find is the snowman. Too bad it's 68 here in Charlotte today. Poor, deprived child of ours.
