Christmas 2006

So, my girls were "big girls" this year and actually went to see Santa. Sofia still doesn't really get the concept of who Santa really is, but she still wanted to see him and sit on his lap. I think she didn't think it was an actual real person, so it was a little confusing for her. The entire way to see Santa, Sabrina refused to see him. I kept trying to sing Santa songs to keep her motivated. Finally, when it came time to actually see Santa, Sabrina said "No!". Then, I told her that I would give her a cookie if she just got a few pictures with Santa. She immediately said ok, and reached for Santa to take her. What a negotiator! In any case, it worked out that Sabrina was willing to at least sit and pose for a few pics before crying out for a cookie. Sofia, was sweet and calm, as always. She told Santa she wanted nuts for Christmas.
