Santa, Potty Training, and more

I am excited that Christmas is just around the corner.  Plant Crist had a Christmas Party recently.  We were excited that both Joshua and Noah were okay with Santa.  I say this because they sat in his lap, though Joshua was looking a little anxious.    However my other theory is that perhaps Santa was just the lesser of two "evils."  You see, Ronald McDonald was there in full gear which even creeped me out a little.  He approached us while we were in the Santa line and asked to hold Noah.  Joshua clung to daddy and ultimately gave Ronald McD a high five.  I think he may have been relieved that the clown left which made Santa a good guy.

Joshua enjoys turning the Christmas tree on in the morning, and when we come home from school, and then turning it off at night.  He also enjoys counting the ornaments and touching them.  He still takes them off the tree and puts them back on.  He keeps biting the plastic gingerbread man like it will turn into a cookie.  We tell him not to eat the ornaments and he says "Ohhh," like it's the first time he's ever heard that.  
Quality time with Daddy
Here's a funny Joshua story. I was told that Joshua has had success with potty training at day care the past few days so when I picked him up I said "Mommy is so proud of you!  Did you have a good potty day?" He answered "Yeah, I not fall in!" I guess that's a bigger deal than actually using the potty.

Noah is as cute as ever, though he is wearing his mommy out with his lack of sleeping at night.  I have been dragging at work.  Hopefully it will get better. All the while Noah remains a dedicated right-handed thumb sucker.
