Naughty or Nice?

Max and Molly went to visit Santa (and Mrs. Claus) today! This was Molly's first visit and Max's second -- we didn't go last year because Molly was so little and Max wasn't old enough to care. This year, however, Max is TOTALLY into the whole Santa/Christmas thing. When we were getting into the car, we told him we were going to see Santa and he talked about it the whole way there (a good 15 minute drive).

I'm happy to report that there was no crying! Molly wasn't sure what to make of the situation, but she sat on Mrs. Claus' lap and was content enough. Once Max spotted Santa, we had to physically restrain him so he didn't go running up there before it was his turn -- he was SO excited to see Santa. He happily sat on Santa's lap, talked nonstop, and was thrilled with the candy cane Santa gave him. The photographer had a hard time getting him to stop talking long enough to snap a picture. I remembered to bring my camera, but cleverly left the card at home, so this isn't my pic (they really aren't as traumatized as they look in the photo):


We stopped at a different place afterwards to get our Christmas tree -- Max saw the trees and the Christmas decorations and went running up to the building yelling, "Santa Claus! See Santa Claus more!" I have a feeling that he's going to be a lot of fun on Christmas morning. ;)
