Breakfast with Santa

Well, we got close to Santa's lap...
We got there and Eli said that no,
he wasn't going to sit on Santa's lap.
But I told him I'd go up with him and
hold him. So eventually he told Santa
he wanted puzzles and a soccer
ball, and he even gave Santa '5'.
And he didn't even cry.

Boys

What are the boys up to? We are getting ready for Christmas. We still need to get our Christmas tree up, though. Tomorrow we are going to go have breakfast with Santa at the Cox cafeteria. Eli says this year he will sit on Santa's lap, which would be a first! When asked what they want for Christmas, Duncan's answer usually involves Pokemon. Eli's answers have ranged from chicken nuggets, to a bed, to a racing car. We also are getting ready for Eli's birthday party on Sunday. Hopefully there won't be a big ice storm over the weekend. If so, we will have lots of food and cake to eat!! Speaking of Pokemon, Duncan has been scrounging up change from various parts of the house, into a plastic zip-loc bag, and then wanting to go to the store to buy Pokemon cards. It's always fun to watch the cashier's expression when he puts his $4.26 in change up on the counter. Also, I have been using the old line, 'You know, Santa is watching you, and he won't bring you any presents if you keep acting up'! Duncan went on to tell Eli that Santa was going to bring him rocks instead of presents. So now whenever Eli does something bad, he looks at me and asks, "Am I going to get woks?". Well, Eli wants to play now so I'd better go. He keeps pressing random buttons on the computer get my attention. It's working.
