Breakfast with the big guy

Yesterday we had our annual brunch with Santa at my parent's dinner club. The food was absolutely wonderful and Eddie's reactions to Santa this year were very funny!

{eddie was a no go for pictures}

{honestly? my dad looks high.}

{finnegan the who}

{my handsome baby boy}

{i love finn's face...all "mom, seriously?"}

{this picture melts my heart.....Santa landed on the roof (!!!!) and those reindeer are NOT very gentle. There was lots and lots of banging and the roof was shaking, and I was quite sure that Santa was going to fall through the roof any second. Eddie was, quite honestly, TERRIFIED. He looked like he was going to cry at any second. And then? Santa started to wave through the skylight! Eddie and Frankie were able to run over and catch a glimpse, and all was forgiven}

{love! i cut off my dad's head while i was trying to make Finn smile, but I still love it}

{Eddie was finally open to pictures once he got cotton candy, which he loved this year after hating it last year!}

{boo on the focus on this picture, but Eddie would not let me take another one}

{so i snuck some pictures}

{wonderful picture, huh? it took a lot to get eddie to share, so i had to document it!}

{food coma?}

{finney's flash face, lol}

{eddie playing the jingle bells along with the elves and pianist}

{the boys and Santa}

{Eddie asked Santa for "construction guys" and a drum. Santa was VERY good about the drum request, telling Eddie that he would only bring Eddie a drum if he promised to only play during designated hours...lol}

It was very funny to see Eddie with Santa...right when he got up there he just started jabbering away, faster than I could translate, so poor Santa ended up doing a lot of mmm-hmmm-ing and ok-ing and such. The best way to get through a conversation with a three year old, right?!
