Santa Halloween?

Eric really likes wearing his "bones pajamas" recently. Yesterday I thought it was ironic that he was wearing those "bones pajamas" while wearing a Santa Hat. This is a new hat from Hallmark that sings "Santa Claus is Coming to Town" when you press a button while the top of it moves around. Eric is holding it because it moves fast and furious enough and the hat is big enough that the hat will fall off if he doesn't hold onto it. He also sings along with the hat. I love hearing him sing. Too cute!

This weekend he came to me wanting to sing "Santa Claus is Coming to Town" but he couldn't remember the words. I showed him the video of him singing "Santa Claus is Coming to Town" last year when he was three. He sang along to the video while making his stuffed animal dance to the music. He's been into that song again lately and wants me to sing it for him at bedtime almost every night.

Dollar Scoop Tuesday is part of our routine now. We make sure the kids eat dinner early on Tuesdays, around 4:30pm since we leave the house by 5pm. That way we can go straight to Baskin-Robbins after Natalie's swim team. Eric had the orange sherbet tonight. He saw the bright orange color and said he wanted "this one". When we said it was "orange sherbet" he said, "That's not orange sherbet." Sigh--he's very opinionated and he thinks he's always right. Anyway, he was in a silly mood and when I had my phone out to play with a new photography app, he started posing for me. He's such a ham! He actually reminds me of Alex at this age!
