Santa!

Sofie is obsessed with Santa.  She has been practicing what she will tell him she wants for Christmas.  She talks about him, points out photos of him everywhere we go...loves to sing "Santa Claus is coming to town".  Our first encounter with Santa a few weeks back ended with Sofie hiding behind me and not wanting anything to do with him.  Ever since then she has been convinced he is "scwarewy".

We ran in to Santa over the weekend while out on our daily walk through town.  After about 10 minutes of negotiating and watching the other kids climb on to his lap, we were here.  It is blurry because she would not sit still...notice how she is not looking at him!



Then we followed him around for about 15 minutes, watching him take photos and chat with others and she ended up here...still wouldn't look...


Telling Santa what she wanted for Christmas...



Decided he was okay and she would show him her "jingle bell"...



Soon they were pals...






And we ended here...

  1. How cute! I'm impressed with Sofie taking up with Santa! I don't think Luke is going to have much to do with Santa.....we'll see! Maybe if Joy sits with him, just maybe! The pictures of Sofie with Santa are so cute and they sure tell the story....not so sure at first, but slowly inching closer! :)
