Meeting the Man in Red

Sitting on Santa's lap for the first time!

So I've been hearing a lot lately about this guy named Santa Claus.  It started a few weeks ago when Nana brought me a new book to read (I LOVE having books read to me already!).  The book is called The Night Before Christmas, and it's about Santa.  He lives at the North Pole, but on December 24th every year, he loads up a sleigh full of toys and other goodies, and with the help of his 9 reindeer (those are sort of like my doggy but bigger and with antlers on their heads) flies to every little kid's house in the whole world to deliver them.  At least, if you've been good he delivers them.

Reading Twas the Night Before Christmas with Nana

Anyway, it's a really good book, and after reading it for the first time, Nana and Mommy took me to meet Santa Clause!  I got to sit on his lap for a few minutes, and I was calm and happy the whole time.  Next year maybe I'll be able to tell him what I want for Christmas, but this year Mommy and Daddy told him for me.  :)  I'm excited to see what he brings me next week!

Nana made me my very own Christmas stocking!

On my Christmas stocking that Nana made for me, there's a picture of a baby with his mommy and daddy and some other visitors.  That's because we actually celebrate Christmas because it's the birthday of this other guy named Jesus.  I've been to church with Mommy and Daddy a few times, and I've heard my Aunt Hilary singing a song to me about how Jesus loves me, so I know a little bit about him already.  I can't wait to learn more about him when I'm older.  He sounds like a pretty cool dude!
