"You better watch out - You better not cry"

Buck taking a few steps in the Santa waiting area (yes, I totally love this little outfit).
Buck finds a chair and a smile.
Buck finds something hilarious -- probably his dad making a joke. They seem to have the same sense of humor.
"Uhhh....is this going to take very long?"
RKZ enjoying the wait more than Buck. Thought it's been awhile since I posted a pic of the hubby.

I think I mentioned that we took Buck to "see" Santa a while back. Of course, Buck has no idea who the hairy man in the suit was...but at least Buck didn't cry his eyes out. He had more of a vacant stare for the picture. I only cared that Buck looked cute in his sweater. I was actually hoping for a little crying - for the sake of a fun memory picture - but nothing. Just a vacant stare - which is actually quite negative for Buck. He probably wonders why somebody else's Grandpa was holding him in front of a camera. The mall had a great waiting area, though. We got some good shots of Buck taking a few steps. He's up to about 10 solid steps in a row at this point. Fell and totally gashed the side of his face today (bad mommy. I was reading Oprah's holiday addition magazine looking for presents). I'm sure Buck will have a HUGE bruise just in time for the holidays.

Decided to do all of our Christmas shopping on-line this year. I'll let you know how it goes. Actually, all of you can tell me how it goes as the presents are actually going to show up on your doorstep! Well- those of you who have been good this year :)

Going through a bout of homesickness up here in the Great White North. Problem is that I miss a number of things about Huntington Beach, Reno, Toronto and even Colorado! I'm too schizo to know where I'm homesick for!! Crazy woman. Seriously.
