Santa, bring me a gift!

We're making progress on the Santa front.

Whew.

Grandma rented "The Santa Clause" for us to watch, and I think Bentley is starting to get the idea. He's talking about lists and reindeer and Santa. It wasn't too late for him!

We asked him what he wants Santa to bring him, and he told us "a gift". When we tried to dig a little deeper for something more specific he clarified with "a present". I like it.

We couldn't figure out what he was saying when he said "present", at first, so we tried plane, paints, all sorts of p words until we hit on present. Along the way to understand his initial response he decided on crayons, paints, markers, and brushes. Check! We can do that! At least for now this little boy sounds pretty easy to shop for.

As for what Viva & Jake want from Santa, according to Bentley? Gifts with their names on them, more specifically he mentioned Santa is to bring them lots and lots of matchbox cars. Hmmm.... is this a slightly biased recommendation on his part?
