We took William to see Santa, it started out real good, and he seemed to enjoy the jolly old guy.
He loved his beard
Santa was asking William if he had been a "good little boy"
William was attempting to crawl and scoot around on the floor, so I told him if he could make it to the tree I would let him open a package.
Here is a picture of William kicking back in Grandpa's chair. Looks like a big boy, huh?
