Today I took Lilly to sit on Santa's lap and have her picture taken. Just as soon as we get it scanned I'll put it up. We've gone to see the same Santa for the last 3 years and have our pictures out to compare. It's amazing to see the chubalicious 8 month old become the sweet toddler, and now, the way-too-grown-up-looking 2 year old with long hair. We couldn't get her to smile today for anything, so she looks like she's not happy about being on Santa's lap. Nothing could be further from the truth though.
She was so excited about seeing Santa today, and kept talking about what she would ask him for... a Larry doll. (She has a bean bag Bob The Tomato from Veggie Tales, and has lately been asking about a Larry The Cucumber "doll".) This apparently, is her greatest Christmas wish. May we always be so lucky! She enjoyed sitting on Santa's lap, when we weren't cajoling her to smile, and dutifully told him what she would like.
Despite my attempts to explain to her that now we wait until Christmas to see what Santa brings, there was much sadness when we left Santa and the mall without a Larry. It might be a long 2 weeks.
