Katelyn's preschool party

Well, since we have no pictures to document any of the happenings in December, I'll get right to the fun stuff. While she was getting ready, she was reminiscing about all the things she remembered when she went to Kelsey's party. She was not afraid of sitting on Santa's lap and welcomed the idea. Something I will never understand is that she works up for the big moment since Thanksgiving, talking and planning what she will ask the big guy for when it comes down to it. However, when that moment actually comes, she asks for something completely random and nothing she had ever mentioned in the previous month leading up to the big day.
All the kids gathered around, while Miss Kris calls Santa to find out where he is, followed by the singing of Jingle Bells.
Sitting on Santa's lap. And what did she ask for? Pink shoes! Again, nothing she'd ever mentioned before.
Thumbs up, mom!
And it wouldn't be complete without having Addison sit/cry on Santa's lap. She could tell I was going to hand her over, so as I was getting closer the grip she had on my arm tightened and I think she may have been crying even before I passed her off. I could hardly snap the picture because I was laughing hysterically! Is it so bad if we get a kick out of our children, even if it is at their own expense?!
Everyone singing Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer and saying good-bye to Santa.
