This past weekend was another busy weekend :) Friday was my work Christmas party. Jack was a little ham and was loving every minute of attention he received from my co-workers. I had my annual cookie baking with some friends on sat. It is always so much fun spending time baking and just talking! On Sunday, Ryan, Jack and I packed into the car and went up to my Grandma Lange's to help her bake cookies. My Grandma has made these cookies for as long as I can remember but they are kind of a pain to roll out, cut and frost so she likes to have a little extra help! I of course don't mind helping and sneaking a few cookies here and there. It was a nice day--my sister Stephanie and I helped bake while Ryan and Jack hung out. Jack was so good all day. My grandma held him and he was so interested in her watch, trying to pull on it and make noise with it! My grandma than put him on the floor between her feet and he managed to get her shoes untied!! Stinker, trying to get his 89yr old great-grandma to trip ;) After decorating 175 cookies--yes, 175 (For those cousins of mine that read this--there better be some cookies left on Christmas) We headed to the St. Cloud Mall to see Santa!! After standing in line for almost an hour, Jack had his first meeting with Santa and Mrs. Claus. He was dressed in a cute little outfit that said, "Santa's Favorite." The Santa at the mall was so good and said, "so that is where my socks went!" Too cute. We weren't able to get Jack to smile because he was too busy checking out all of the lights and other decorations! The picture is still very cute! This week is busy again as I am working away on preparing for lots of H1N1 vaccine clinics and Ryan is working alot of overtime. I am going to sneak out tomorrow for a half day to get some Christmas shopping!! I cannot believe that Christmas is only a week away--CRAZY!!
