Here Comes Santa Claus...(by Gage)

Santa Claus, who are you? What exactly do you do? My mommy and daddy keep talking about you and even took me to see you Monday night. Mommy kept telling me that I "did better than last year". It seems as though I was terrified of you last year...well, this year, I was still a bit weary of a big guy with a white beard dressed in head to toe in red flannel. But I did say hi to you and tell you that I wanted a horsey for Christmas. Griffin sat on your lap, but I chose to sit on Mommy's lap who sat next to you. But I will say that you were really nice to me and I'm loving the stickers you gave me! I will ask Mommy to post those pictures later. They are pretty good if I do say so myself!

In other news, Mommy and Daddy are all decorated for Christmas. Mommy brought home ornaments for Griffin and me last week. She bought Grif a "Baby's First Christmas"...but mine is a snowman riding a horse! I love it...I keep wanting to take it off the tree and Mommy has to keep reminding me not to...sigh...

In case you can't tell, I'm really into horses these days. I've almost perfected counting 1-10 and I like to sing along with Mommy when she sings ABC's...I hit on a few of the letters. I love the song "Jingle Bells" and I'm learning it too!

Griffin is starting to be more fun these days. He's sitting up now and so we can play toys together. I love making him laugh by playing peek-a-boo with him. He's been sick for about a week now, but seems to be feeling better. Shew...!

Well, I'll leave you with a couple of pics of Griffin and me at our annual Christmas photo shoot and a couple of just me in years past! Enjoy them as I know you will!
