HO HO HO... Our first visit with Santa

Yesterday we did not one but two visits to Santa!  Thankfully Micah was feeling much, much, better yesterday and we went to the doctor for a check up and left with the OK to see Santa.  We started off at the base.  I know most of you think that Santa flys in a sleigh but this year he got a bit of an upgrade and arrived to see the kiddos in an F-16!







After being up for a pretty long time, being poked and proded at the doctor and staying up past nap time Micah did pretty well hanging out waiting for Santa.





Unfortunately he did not have much love for Santa, and would have much rather had Mommy continue to hold him rather than tell the jolly old man what he wanted for Christmas.







After we saw Santa we headed home to try to make the most of getting the afternoon nap in. While he was sleeping we figured once he got up we could try to cram all of our Santa in one day and try again freshly refueled with sleep to see the Santa at the mall. 

This worked a bit better.  Micah had a death grip on Brad as he got closer and closer to Santa but some how we managed to pry him off and even convinced him not to cry.  Don't get me wrong... he didn't smile but he didn't cry.  It was a small victory.
