Santa Came!

For the first time ever, Santa came to the Taylor household.

 And Larkin jumped in with both feet!

 It took about 3 seconds for him to park it in my lap and demand "Open, open, open!"

 Because he can't say any word just once. And also because he doesn't think he can open gifts without being in someone's lap.

 The big train set was a hit.

 In fact, maybe a little too overwhelming...

 Don't worry, he recovered and went on to open the paper off all of the boxes.

 Then it was time to open the boxes so he could play with the toys. Super excitement over his "sweepers"... I'll have to tell you about his love/hate relationship with all things "sweeper" sometime. Not today.

 He was also trilled with his pots. He got right to cooking and eating.

 Oh my gosh, my kid thinks he's a stay-at-home mom.

He also went on to open his stocking with fun little treats inside. By this time, no matter what he opened, he gave a big excited "Ohhhhhhhhhhhhh" when he saw it.

 Then more playing.

I think Santa's first visit was a hit!
