Earlier in December, Mommy and Daddy took me to the mall on a Sunday after Mass. They wanted to take me to see Santa Claus. The entire time we waited they asked if was going to sit with Santa and take a picture. To amuse them, I said yes. But when it was finally our turn - forget about it! I'm pretty sure Mommy still has scratches on the back of her neck from me that day! I wouldn't even sit with Mommy and Daddy near Santa. So needless to say, we left the mall without any pictures that day.
A week later was our subdivision Christmas party. Santa was there taking pictures with all the kids. The photographer was Mr. Matt, who's taken my pictures many many times. And they had cookies. Mommy was helping with the party, and Daddy was away for work, so Grannie and Paw-Paw came to town to help Mommy with me. After lots of encouragement from everyone, I finally decided I'd take my M&M cookie over to show Santa. I sat on his knee to show him my cookie, and Mr. Matt snapped the picture! So, here's the shot of me, Ole Saint Nick, and my M&M cookie! (Great job on getting a picture of me with Santa without tears, Mr. Matt!)
