Christmas 2008

Our holiday fun began the Friday after Thanksgiving with the Grand Illumination in downtown Naperville. There was a parade, ice sculptures and entertainment. Kaden had a great view of the parade thanks to Daddy!


The Christmas season kicked off with a family holiday party at the McClain's house. Kaden had fun playing with all of his friends. He especially liked sharing some holiday treats with his friend Cezanne.




After hosting the family party, the McClain's were gracious to host a party just for Mommys and Daddys. We had a great time. Pictured here are all of the ladies. The guys thought it was funny to put the Ho, Ho, Ho sign in front of us!!!!!






Shortly before Christmas, we were lucky enough to have breakfast with Santa Claus at the Naperville Community Center. There was a yummy buffet, musical entertainment, crafts and of course, pictures with Santa. Kaden had fun playing jingle bells.

Santa had Mommy sit on his lap and try to convince Kaden not to be shy.






Kaden finally warmed up to Santa and gave him a big hug!















Kaden and his friend Michael relax in a warm tub on a cold winter's night.

















Kaden's class hosted a very special holiday sing-a-long. Kaden was a bit more interested in playing with the trains than singing songs.



















Kaden is in the closet......literally. Sneaking into Mommy's purse is very fun!





















On Christmas Eve, Kaden picked the very best cookies and carrots for Santa and his reindeer.























Kaden had so much fun on Christmas morning. He didn't know which toy to play with first!

























We were so happy to be together to enjoy a nice Christmas dinner
