First Christmas Parade!

Tonight we decided last minute to bundle up and head out to the Christmas parade. It was sprinkling and we were afraid that the parade wouldn't happen, but by the time we got there, the rain had stopped. At first Clay didn't know what to think about it, but got into it after a while. I didn't know what to expect, but it turned out to be a fun little parade! Here are some pictures:

Nothing says "Happy Holidays" like a Christmas Panda!

Santa riding in style on the fire truck!

And guess what tomorrow is... It's PICTURES!!! And guess what the weather looks like...

Yes, folks... that's a 90% chance of rain right there. Looks like the photo shoot is doomed for a third time! Hmmmm... looks like we need a back up plan. The photographer we chose to do his 12 month pictures (Yeah... he'll be 15 months tomorrow! So much for the 12 month pics!) only shoots outside, so we are at the weather's mercy! Hopefully something will work out!

And in the midst of all the craziness of the holidays, we've found out that Clay has to have tubes put in his ears. We took him to an ENT last Friday and he said he was a prime candidate for tubes. He is scheduled for the procedure next Monday morning. We've been told that it is a quick procedure and they don't even put him all the way under... just a little bit of gas to knock him out a few minutes. We were told that he would only be away from us for about 20 minutes. Hopefully this will prevent these horrible ear infections he keeps getting!


Have a great week!
