St. Nick's Day 2011

Nicholas is totally eating up Christmas this year. St. Nick came last night and Nicholas has been talking about it all day (including all through school, according to his teachers).

St. Nick brought Nicholas some new animals and a package of Christmas fruit snacks.

Nicholas got a cow and a pig (which make noise!) from the dollar impulse bins at Target a couple weeks ago and somehow St. Nick knew that he'd like the other 4 animals as well.

Nicholas even insisted that all his animals line up on the table while he watched tv. He tried to explain to me why they had to look at him instead of the tv, but I didn't follow.

He is one very happy little boy. So happy, in fact, that he insisted on drawing a thank-you card for St. Nick this morning. (What can I say, at least he has manners, right?) I was fine with that since we were running a little early. Then he insisted on putting it in an envelope and mailing it. Luckily the boy couldn't read the address I put on the envelope.

My parents should be receiving the card in the mail in the next couple days.
