Santa Pictures

As crazy as it seems, we have our Christmas pictures taken before the holidays truly begin. This year, our pictures were done the week before Halloween. It is always a big undertaking to have Parker's Christmas pictures done. We know, since he was 1 month old, he has NOT been a fan of St. Nick.

We prepared him this year for the pictures. We told him that since he was almost 4 he had to be brave. We really talked Santa up in hopes of getting at least a semi decent shot of the two of them. Can I say success?

Michael and I were TERRIFIED! Per usual, Santa sneaks up behind Parker to get a few good shots, but the moment Parker realizes what is behind him.. it is down hill from there. Not this year, this year he saw Santa and turned around and said "HEY"... then preceded to tell him everything he wanted for Christmas. Unbelievable. Michael and I stood in total and complete shock while taking it all in. We are SO proud of our baby boy. Finally, a Christmas without a picture of him crying in Santa's lap!

Here is a sneak peak of our family Christmas pictures..
