Santa

It is that time of year again - time to meet with the "big guy", let him know you have been a good boy or girl all year, and present a list of demands/gift requests.

Last year, Henry and Santa were best buds. They laughed, Henry played with his beard, they hugged. It was a grand time. Here are some photos of their glorious meeting last year:






This year... it was not as pleasant:




As you can see, we couldn't even attempt a photo of Henry sitting on Santa's lap (my attempts to pry my screaming child off me and put him there were starting to feel like child abuse, so I gave up and joined the photo session). This is actually the best picture we got, if you can believe it. I suppose it is a rite of passage to have the "screaming child with Santa" picture, though. Hopefully next year won't be as traumatic for either of us.

Not sure why but I found those very, very funny. His face is fantastic. Ah... here's to hoping next year will be better. We hope to take C this weekend or next week - wish us well! Though my strong suspicion is that we'll have a photo that looks very similar to yours! =)
