Jingle bells, Jingle bells

Jingle all the way. And Deck the Halls and Jingle Bell Rock and all the other Christmas songs Brendan has had us listening to the last few days. On Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday he was telling me he wanted it to still be Halloween, but then I got him a Santa hat on Friday and we got our holiday pictures on Saturday and now it's "I want it to be Christmas now". He wore the hat the whole weekend and pored over the eToys catalog to get some ideas for Santa.

I was so happy with how the pictures turned out. It was a little early to take them but I wanted to get in before the holiday rush. Brendan was an ace with the photographer, if anything he kept trying to ham it up and we had to try and get him to tone it down a little and do some genuine smiles. I can't decide which is my favorite picture, they came out so nice. And I wish I was half as photogenic as Brendan is. There was a little issue with the coupon I wanted to use and some deceptive bait and switch type stuff and I'm waiting for a call back from Sears to try and resolve it, but I can't complain about the quality of the photos. Now I'm just trying to choose which pictures to use for our holiday pictures. Snapfish and Shutterfly have cards you can use holiday cards where you can use multiple photos on it, so I think I know where I'll be getting cards from, lol.

    Oh these are great!!! I particularly love the one of Brendan lying on his back, b/c its not your standard pose and he just looks so relaxed. I also love the two pictures of the two of you together, particularly the one your whole bodies in your jammies - that is so sweet.

    Those eyes are to die for! Excellent pics. I'm rather fond of the one of him lying on his back.
