On Saturday, I (with the help of my mom - thanks mom!) took the kids to Santa Day at Lincoln Trail. I had never been to this event before, but Macy really had fun. She got to make some ornaments, decorate and eat a sugar cookie, get her face painted, make some reindeer food, and have a balloon flower made for her. Oh, and of course we can't forget that she got to see Santa and Mrs. Claus too. She was all stoked about seeing the big guy, but of course when it was her turn she got scared and wouldn't even make eye contact with him let alone tell him what she wanted for Christmas. So I just plopped Holden on Mrs. Claus' lap and snapped a pic. I'm surprised she even half smiled in it.
Then later while we were doing the other activities, she kept asking about Santa and saying she wanted to see him. This is exactly how it went last year... all excited about seeing him until the actual moment arrives. Last year we were walking away from him when she apparently realized she better tell him what she wanted, so she yelled back to him that she wanted a baby doll. So far this year she hasn't been quite as specific in her Christmas request, she says she wants candy and toys. I'm pretty sure santa will be able to deliver on that!

I'm really excited for Christmas this year... it is going to be so much fun with two kiddos!
