Santa Claus is commin to town!

Merry Christmas!

I'm supposed to be in bed asleep, but I was so excited that I had to share my news! There are 2 presents under the Christmas tree for me!!! And there's a sock hanging on the mantle that has a teddy bear and my name on it!!! Mommy keeps buying me stocking stuffers! I LOVE Christmas time!!

I hope that everyone had a great thanksgiving. I did! So many people held me and told me how cute and sweet I was. It doesn't get much better than that. Not a whole lot has happened this month. I got to see (and taste) snow. When Daddy took me outside to see the snowflakes, I stuck out my tounge and tried to get some in my mouth. Mommy tried to get me to eat snow, but it was too cold and I made a terrible face. Mommy keeps trying to get me to eat weird stuff. Tonight it was rice cereal and applesauce mixed together. She thinks that she is so smart by putting it on her finger and then sticking her finger in my mouth. I don't have the heart to tell her that I have figured out her trick. I don't know why she wants me to eat real food. I think that it makes much more sense to come get me in the middle of the night and feed me a bottle while I sleep. What's that? Well, of course I sleep while mommy and daddy feed me in the middle of the night. Sleep is important and I really like it. I'm sure that they like getting up and feeding me in the middle of the cold, lonely night.

I have started sitting up on my own. I did it on 11/29, but didn't really perfect it until 11/30, which was also when it snowed here. I thought that it was too cold to stay outside for a long stretch of time, so I worked on my sitting skills in front of the TV. I'm good at it now. Tonight, I sat in front of the TV watching Wheel of Fortune and playing my piano. I love Wheel of Fortune. There are cool noises and Vanna's pretty. Papa says that I am partial to blonde women. Honestly, wasn't checking out those ladies at dinner the other night...or at Hobby Lobby...or at church...

I'm going to be the littlest lamb in the Christmas pageant at church on December 17th. My dress rehersal is this Sunday. I really hope that I don't completely steal the show. That wouldn't be fair to the other actors. I'll have to try to tone down my natural charm. I got my first professional pictures taken on the day before Thanksgiving. I'm a model! Mommy told me that I can't cry as much at the next photo shoot because I'll get a reputation for being hard to work with. There were 2 pictures taken of me in my christening gown, 2 taken in my pants, shirt, and vest next to the Christmas tree, and one nude shot of me. It was done very tastefully if you are curious. Maybe I will give some of the photos out at Christmas.

Well, I better go. I hope that everyone has a great holiday season. Feel free to send me gifts! I have a new wish list on the Target website!

Ciao,

Evan
