Christmas Eve - The Littlest Santa




We decided that we would start a Christmas tradition this year of driving around and looking at Christmas lights on Christmas Eve (since this was something Cole could do this first year!).

So we put our littlest Santa in his little Santa pj's and set out.  We're looking forward to doing it again next year!

More playtime on the floor!



Modeling his cute sports onesie!


Playing with the Roly Poly Chime Ball that was Mommy's when she was a baby!

One cookie is for Stella and one is for Daisy (Jenny's dog)...can you guess which is which?!

The many faces of "Santa" Cole!


"I think I'm ready for a nap..."


"Zzz...zzz...zzz..."


"I'm going to close my eyes and pretend I'm sleeping..."


"Aye aye matey!  Shiver me timbers!"


"Mom, I could really use a refill on my gin & tonic"


"WHAT?!  It's almost Christmas?!"
