Santa Success!

She finally did it. Ella was not terrified of Santa for the first time. She gave him several hugs and sat on his lap. I also had to clarify earlier today that she would not be seeing St. Nick on Christmas.......apparently she thought she would. I came up with a great reason as to why he had to come while she was sleeping...you know, too many kids-pictures-talking--all take too much time and he'd never get all the stockings filled before Christmas morning. I fully expect her to have sleep issues tomorrow night thinking about it, even though Santa told her she must go to bed on time without arguing.

Being three is so fun!

In case you don't recall, previous year's were 1: screaming on Santa's lap while I held her 2: shaking his hand from afar.
