On our weekly pilgrimage to the cheap cheap mecca that is WalMart late last week, Raegan heard, with much glee, the announcement over the loudspeaker that Santa Clause was in the garden department taking free pictures. Well of course that decided the issue for us. Not dressed up, not cleaned up, but DANG were they excited!
Raegan got her first glance and that was it;
"Santa Closet!!! SANTA CLOSET!!!!!" and she sprinted past all other patrons ( ok, there were like 2) and vaulted her little body onto Santa Closet's lap, where she told him all about the pink milk she really wanted and asked, over and over, for a candy cane. Kael was not as impressed but whatever; they're both in the same picture. Raegan did NOT want to get down, she insisted that "the Closet" wanted some pink milk... We did manage to finally drag her bodily off of the poor man's lap and out of the store. She asks for him at least once a day ( with all the Christmas hype happening on TV and in every retail store we visit, she has no option but to notice the "Santa Closet" everywhere. )
Just now as I type she says "Hey, that's me! And the Closet!!"
She's so cute.
Side note: Look how freakin' HUGE Kael is in comparison. Look at his HANDS! Good Gawd.

Kael is how much younger than she?
WOW! Never really noticed that he had gotten so close to her size!
Kael is 20 months younger. He wears the same shoe size but in a WIDE, as well as the same shirt size. His pants would be 3T as well but then he'd walk all over the hem so we keep him in 2T and tell him to suck it in.
The whole 'closet' thing cracks me up....
Aw man, your kids are WAY better with Santa Closet than mine. We got another screamer picture this year... I'm betting NEXT year will be a good year for the man in red at our house. ;-)
