Visiting Santa and the Christmas tree

  Today we took Kyle to see Santa and we also got our Christmas tree.  It was so much fun.  Kyle was SO serious when he sat with Santa but he didn't cry or freak out anything.  He just stared LOL  We also went to buy a tree from the Boy Scout's in San Mateo.  It's become a tradition as the lot where the trees get sold is down the street from my old apartment.  Natalie and I bought our Christmas tree there (they lent us a little wagon to carry the tree from the lot to our apartment; it was so cute!) and then Robert and I bought our tree there last year, as well.  It was so much fun to do all of these things with Kyle.  I think he enjoyed it, too!

I dressed him in a red button-up onesie, with gray plaid pants, and his new, black Converse.  He looked so adorable!
We got a new, much smaller stroller.  Although we love our BOB, it's rather huge for when you just want to go to the mall really quick.  Doesn't he look so cute!!??
Waiting in line to see Santa
Still waiting :-)
Waiting some more...
And just a bit more...
Here he is!  The picture we ended up buying is so precious.  It's just Kyle looking up at Santa, and Santa looking down at Kyle.  Santa has a little smile on his face and you can tell he's saying something nice to Kyle.  It was the cutest of the three poses!  Unfortunately, we only have hard copies of that one so I can't post it!
Entering the tree farm...





Kyle touching his first Christmas tree!

The chosen one, in the truck bed, on our way home.
Here she is!
Decorated and with Kyle
Here is one of our first married Christmas ornaments that our wedding photographer gave us last year.  It's really cute!
Kyle was so excited while we decorated the tree!  He was having the best time!
Robert broke this gold ornament... no big deal lol



Oh, and we got our new couch and chair, finally!!!  I think that this picture really doesn't do them justice because they are really awesome!  Once the holiday season is over, I am going to rearrange the furniture in the living room and make it all new! :-)
