Getting ready for Christmas...

Here are some fun pictures we took of JD the other day just before taking him to the mall to have his picture taken with Santa. He found the blinking red rudolph nose in a drawer and just loved putting it on and looking at himself in the mirror.

As far as having his picture made with Santa, he was NOT a big fan of that at all! He started crying as soon as his bottom made contact with Santa's knee and did not stop until we picked him up again. We even tried to bribe him with a sucker, but that didn't help the situation whatsoever. We told the photographer to take the photo anyway as it will be a funny picture to show JD when he's older. So, we left the mall with a picture of JD wailing and leaning out away from Santa's body with a sucker in one hand. We put our poor children through some of the strangest things sometimes! :^)
