A Visit with Santa

You have to put your name on the nice list.

Santa will check it twice though.

{First year penning his own name} 

 Pretty successful!  

No tears, though Anderson was not particularly impressed.

{Alekzander later pointed out that we didn't tell Santa what Anderson wanted.

Luckily, I think the old guy has a special connection with babies,

and knows exactly what they want.}

Telling Santa his Christmas wish :: a red scooter.

Santa initially heard "red skittles," but we were able to clarify.  

And to clear up any confusion, Alekzander drew a very clear picture of his wish.

Incredibly proud Mommy & Daddy moment - 

Alekzander flipped his paper over and drew out his Christmas wish ...

{unprompted & unassisted}

Apparently there were no red crayons available 

to add detail to the scooter, so on his own, he spelled out R-E-D. 

{Yay Mrs. Meaghan & TK}
