So hopefully, i can get out of this once a month mode of updating this thing. It has been crazy busy here...but it is all good!! We braved the mall after picking Alex up from preschool to visit Santa. I think this was the first successful Santa visit we've ever had. Actually, I don't think we went last year since the previous three years with Alex weren't great and after all we have the BEST Santa visit at Nana's house on Christmas Day. So with Santa Bestefar why bother with those store-bought Santas (haha!). Anyway, Alex asked for his remote control train and his Playmobils (as expected). It's nice that they let you take your own picture - but you are allowed only ONE picture. I totally understand that policy, but it makes it quite stressful for someone like me who would easily snap 10 or 15 in the space of that couple minutes. I got one and it was as good as I could expect.
