Cooper took quite a liking to Santa this year, and this was before he even really understood Santa would be brining him presents! As soon as we mentioned Santa this year, he decided he loved him! He was constantly talking about him and how Santa says, "Ho, ho, ho!" I have several Santa ornaments, and naturally, those were Little Man's favorite. One morning while Coop was watching his cartoons, I noticed he had taken an ornament off the tree...
Speaking of ornaments, here are my two favorites this year...

An idea I found on Pinterest-I printed a picture from each of Cooper's Christmas's on transparent paper, cut them out in a circle, wiggled them in a clear ornament, and situated them with tweezers. They look really pretty when the lights on the tree shine through them!
Back to the Big Guy...
Cooper has never had any hesitations about Santa Claus, and this year was no different; however, he wasn't sure about sitting on his lap! We went to Bass Pro Shop, and Cooper played for awhile in their Winter Wonderland. His favorite though was climbing on each and every four wheeler! We were having a really hard time getting him off and away from them, so finally Karl told him to go tell Santa that's what he wanted for Christmas. Although most people don't understand what Cooper's saying when he talks, he does for sure! Well, he took off down the red carpet, went and stood in front of Santa, and started babbling! Then when he was done, he crossed his little hands like he always does and started to walk off. We quickly plopped him on Santa's lap before he could get away, and then he froze!
What a beautiful child. May God bless him all the days of his life.
