Because I simply can’t help myself…here’s Maile at just two months old, oblivious to the fact a man she’d grow to fear was cradling her ever so sweetly. :) The next year my four month pregnant self was able to get 14 month old Maile on the big guys lap by bribing her with a candy cane and distracting with a stuffed reindeer. Easy enough. I was getting cocky with my good Santa picture luck.
I’d like to draw attention to the lovely Christmas sweater he’s wearing and clear my name by adding that I put him in that sweater as a joke. I had received it from some daycare parents when he was born in JULY…clearly a re gift of their daughters. The snowmen on the sweater have blond pigtails and it’s clearly a very girly sweater. I thought I was being funny…I’m sure I’ll be apologizing to him for the rest of his life. Sorry Kainoa.
It’s what you all have been waiting for….
This years Santa picture……
Quite possibly the best to date….
Wait for it….
Wait….
Wait….
TA DAAAHHH!!!!
ps Did any of you notice that I totally recycle Maile’s Christmas dresses by making Laina wear them the following year!?! For what it’s worth she’s TOTALLY excited about all the dresses when it’s her turn. If she didn’t like the dress I would definitely buy her a new one.
