December Update

 I didn't realize I haven't blogged since Thanksgiving so I am just going to give you a December update all in one post.

We made Christmas cookies together. I found dye-free sprinkles and made dye-free frosting so that Max could eat them.

Zoe met Santa at daycare one day. She looks just as scared as Max when he sees Santa. I guess it runs in the family. 

Cookie, our elf, brought the family matching cozy pajamas.

We decided to all wear our extremely warm pajamas outside by the fire while watching a Christmas movie. The plan was to roast marshmallows by the fire, but we were all too full from dinner.

We went to Cruise the Zoo Lights and that was a lot of fun. It was kind of a cluster with so many people there, but we had fun checking out the lights from the car. Plus, it was "cold" out that night so it was nice to be warm in the car while we drove through the zoo at four miles per hour. When we were approaching Santa, we asked Max to pop his head out the window and wave. Max's response was "Oh, no, no, no." We finally convinced him to and he did it super quick and said he was done. I don't even think Santa saw him do it because it was that quick. This is why we send a letter to Santa every year instead of visiting him in person.

Max had ugly sweater day at school.

I finally received Max's first-grade school picture and he's such a cutie!
