Party Like Your Birthday is Two Days Before Christmas

For December babies, and especially for babies born on Christmas Eve Eve, there's great concern about birthdays getting overlooked.  That has not been my experience since I'm December-born and it is certainly not the case for Keaton.  She just celebrates for an entire month.

We embraced the season this year and invited Santa to Keaton's party.  I just called him up and he had an hour to kill between shopping and eating cookies so he stopped by.  Mrs. Claus packed some goodies for the kids and everyone got to talk to the big guy.  Lem and Alice were our outstanding photographers so here's what they captured.
