A couple of weeks ago Alastair's work hosted a children's Christmas party at his office. It was Anna's first time meeting with the big man in red and you can see by the expression on her face that she wasn't too sure about Santa Claus!
Anna wanted to be as far away as possible from Santa....
Not even a game of peek a boo could convince her to sit on Santa's lap! Though Santa did suggest Alastair sit on his lap while holding Anna! Strange but true!
After all her Santa fun, Anna went straight to work at her Daddy's desk proving what a big help she could be at the office...answering phones...
Typing memos, sending emails.....
And ready to head out to any construction sites!
At school Anna wrote her first letter to Santa! She's very excited about Christmas....she talks about Santa, Christmas lights, sings Jingle Bells. Everyday I ask her where she's going for Christmas and she answers Scotland! Anna also talks about presents and whenever I ask her what she wants for Christmas I always get the same answer...the conversation usually goes like this -
Mommy: "Anna what do you want for Christmas?"
Anna: "Presents!"
Mommy: "What kind of present do you want?"
Anna: "A purple present!!"
Not sure what a purple present is but I think I'm going to have to at least find some purple wrapping paper!
On our last blog post I wrote about how Anna is just growing and changing before our eyes....we're now entering into the funny things my kid says phase. My favorite new story is on our way to the holiday party we were stopped at a light waiting to turn. In the backseat Anna was pointing out the window and saying "Daddy! Daddy!" She does this all the time...but this time I looked at what she was pointing at and burst out laughing - it was a man walking down the street in a kilt! Seriously what are the odds of that!? So laughing out loud I tried to explain to Anna that just because a man is in a kilt it doesn't mean it's her Daddy!
