Christmassy Day

Maddox loves to play with Jessi. Jessi . . . not so much. If I tell Jessi to stay she will though, reluctantly. One morning Maddox wanted to curl up with Jessi in her bed with her "kankie" and she lay there quite a while talking to her. This morning we went and had breakfast with Santa at a nearby church. She was not at all interested in seeing Santa and reluctant to sit on his lap. I knew she'd never cry though, as that would draw more attention to her than she'd ever want. She just sat on his lap holding very still and staring off into space. She's probably thinking "if I don't move too much or make a peep maybe this won't last long". As you can see, she wouldn't even relax her arms--she might accidentally touch this strange man!

Maddox was a lot more comfortable with Elmo. She had no problem going up to him and sitting down on his sled.
When we got back home we made puppy chow. She stood up on the step stool to help and loved it. She's not much help at all, but she liked to think she was. Of course, she got to lick the spatula after we were done . . . with Mommy's help . . .
