Mimi and Mommy took Tyler and Jack to see the man in the big red suit today. Surprisingly, Jack was excited to introduce his baby brother to jolly ol' Saint Nick. He planned to put a bug in Santa's ear about a Wii for himself and a playset for his brother. As one might have anticipated on December 23, there was a mad dash to get final requests in to the big guy. At 10:00 a.m., the line was already estimated at 1.5 hours wait time. Whew. Good thing we had Mimi! She met us at the mall and was able to stand in line for about 40 minutes before we arrived.
Jack enjoyed his visit with Santa very much. Tyler looked a bit like a deer in headlights, if you must know, at first. As the picture taking elf shook her squeaky ball to gain his attention, he gave a look to say "Um, I'm not sure what all this is about but, yeah, I'll look at ya." He then took his attention back to the big guy with all that hair and his eyes never left until we plucked him out of Santa's lap. We captured the moment with a few pictures of our own...and now we wait patiently for 2 more nights for him to make his appearance on our rooftop!
Merry Christmas to all, and to all a good night!
