Jolly Ol' St. Nick

We took Jack to the mall this weekend to get his picture taken with Santa. It all started out so well - we only had to wait in line for about ten minutes and Jack was excited - ready! John handed him off to the Jolly Ol' Man and things were okay - he was a little unsure, but was quite fascinated by his furry sleeves... we managed to get a few cute pictures of him with the Big Guy and then Jack turned around and realized he had no idea who was holding him and that was it - he wanted far far away from the bearded man... He started reaching for me and trying with all his might to get away from St. Nick and when I didn't get there fast enough we had REAL TEARS... for those who don't know Jack very well he NEVER produces real tears - it's the rare occasion that he really cries. But once he was in my arms he calmed down quickly and even managed to point and smile at Santa while we were checking out so I'd say the visit was a success. He still hasn't told us what he asked Santa for though - he's very good at keeping secrets! After the visit with Santa we met Nan and Poppy for some wonderful Mexican food. Jack had the best time walking around the restuarant with Nan and sitting in Poppy's lap after everyone had finished! Check out the photosite for some updated pictures!
