Ready for Christmas!

Santa always visits my workplace in early December, so I bundled up the baby and talked my mom into coming with us for a photo op last Saturday. I thought for sure Boyd would freak out about meeting the big man in red, but he LOVED SANTA! We could scarcely believe it, but here is the proof...

His face in the pic below kills me. Part coy, part "how YOU doin'?"

I don't know what it is about photos, but after the first few snaps Boyd gets all smiley and happy for the camera.

I found his coat and booties on Zulily. Usually shipping from that site takes forever, but the package arrived a couple weeks ago - just in time for Santa.

Adorable, right? I just love this kid so much and was very proud of him for doing as well as he did. Next year I'm SURE he'll have the big meltdown, so I'm thankful for these amazing photos now.

Happy weekend everyone!

We are cruising!

Boyd loves walking around. His steps are becoming stronger and not so halting. He'll plop down after he gets tired, but then put out his arms to be pulled up for another round.
