Pancakes with Santa

While Ian was out of town Lucy and I met Erin, Andrew and Jay for pancakes at their church. It was a Santa breakfast and Lucy was thrilled to be able to tell the big man in person what she wanted for Christmas. Apparently, it is a good thing that she had already put "a train" on Santa's list since she told him about 15 times that she wanted one for Christmas. She was enamored with him. She sat on his lap for quite some time, prompting Santa to say, "We'll she is pretty comfortable. She's been here since Thanksgiving and looks like she'll be here until after the New Year." Lucy added, " I want a train and presents for my momma." A candy cane was the only thing able to pull her away.

Then she spent the rest of the time running free and hugging Andrew, their new favorite pasttime together.
