liam and christmas

christmas time with a 15 month old vs a 3 month old has been so much more fun! he has no idea whats going on but he likes it! 

he likes the tree, in fact he loves smelling it and will always say mmm even though it's fake and has no smell. 

                                  

he loves the image of santa and will point it out and say dah-dah(santa) whenever he sees something santa-esque. however, meeting santa in person was a different experience. the first time we saw him was at the mall on black friday. we weren't planning on talking with him or taking a picture at first. it was let's just look at him, then it was let's just wave to him, then let's just say hi to santa, then it was sit on his lap and before we know it, we're getting pictures taken. in a batman shirt. so festive aren't we? anyways, i think because we gradually got closer he was fine(until santa tried bouncing him to get him to smile. that crossed the line.)

running into santa at target was a whole different thing. the guy was so nice and tried talking to liam but liam froze. he normally babbles, waves or blows kisses to everyone but for santa he just stared. then "santa" asked if we wanted a picture and picked liam up. and the next picture does the rest of the talking. again, so festive in the salmon colored shirt.

liam loves the christmas lights! he likes to watch me plug them in every evening. 

my personal favorite part is the pergola. it looks so magical. i want to drink hot chocolate under there every night.

                                               

i know i may be a little biased, but look at this kid!!!!! where do i sign him up to be a baby model? he is such a freaking stud! i can't stand it!
