December is finally here! I enjoy all holidays, but Christmas is my favorite. Our house was fully decorated before Thanksgiving (although I did wait until Thanksgiving night to turn the Christmas lights on outside).
Yesterday I took Navy to Henderson to play in Central Park. Their Christmas Parade was today, so they had all of their Christmas decorations up in the park. Navy enjoyed running through the park, climbing on the different props they had-----a train, sleigh, school bus, fire truck, etc. Santa is there on Saturdays and Sundays from 1-3pm, so we will definitely be going back again soon to pay him a visit.
I failed to mention that before we left for the park, Navy insisted I put a pink tutu on her. Luckily I was able to convince her to leave it in the car before we headed out to play.
This morning the FOP had their annual Breakfast with Santa. Last year Navy didn't like Santa at all. Unfortunately, not much has changed this year. I tried to prep her as much as possible-----we looked at pictures of Santa and talked about how nice and fun he is and how she was going to meet him and sit on his lap. She seemed like she was excited to see him.....until she actually saw him. She clung to me so tightly and would not let go!
Later on, a little girl walked Navy up to see Santa and she went with her, but kept pulling back on the girl's hand, trying to get away. She never sat on his lap, but when he left the breakfast she waved at him and blew him a kiss. I think she was relieved he was finally leaving the building! I can't wait for her to see Santa again later this month! :)
