In addition Lily and I have had colds. Lily is feeling better but my cold is hanging on as long as it can.
Before the cold virus hit we made a visit to Santa.......
The littles were so excited to see Santa, to dress up, and to have their picture with Santa.
We went to a different mall this year (less crowded) and that was the first mistake. Lily noticed the difference right away and pointed out that she liked the place we went last year (her words to be exact.... you know the other mall from my picture last year...I like that one better mom).
The minute we stepped into the mall Ty was in a bad mood and that quickly rubbed off on Lily.
Lily pointed out that she would rather mom take the picture than Santa's helper... who by the way was more interested in where Lily and Ty were from than taking their picture. The usual... are they twins... and then so on.
I had my camera just to snap some pictures of them by a fountain in the mall.... well.... the mall security guard followed me like I was the paparazzi.
Needless to say the actual picture with Santa did not turn out well....
Lily and Ty LOVED the fact that Santa gave them each 2 candy canes... They ended the Santa visit on a happy note and enjoying every bit of their candy canes.
Mall Christmas tree
Sitting by the fountain.... Lily is looking at the ribbon directly below her and Ty was looking at the skylight above...
Finishing her sentence of.... I don't like Santa at this mall....
Lily also noticed that Grandma Glenda was not here... Grandma Glenda meets us here once in a while for lunch... Miss Lily remembered that and wondered where she was....
Back home by our tree....
Gotta love these Ty cheeks.....
Mom with her littles
As always I am so proud to say that Robin at
Red Thread Stitches made this beautiful outfit that Lily is wearing.

Oh my...well, first, I hope your cold goes far, far away and doesn't come back.
Second, you are a patient Mom to have such a, um, adventurous Santa sitting trip. Good grief!
Third, 'momarazzi', I love it!! LOL! The fountain picture is priceless, love it, too. And those happy, loving, adorable faces, boy are you blessed!! :-D
What sweet pictures, and yes, I love Ty's cheeks!! I love the picture of all of you too. Ty looks so handsome in his suit!
I hope you fell better soon!!
Oh I do hope you feel better before Christmas; hope the cold in your state isn't like the NC cold going around...it's taking forever to go away. In our house, it keeps recirculating. Yuck! Loved the photos. Lily is so funny. I was cracking up reading your post. They looked adorable...glad to see them "happy" again at home in front of your tree and such a sweet picture of the 3 of you! Get better soon.
Feel better soon! Love these pictures they are so special. What adorable and sweet littles and they are so photogenic. Momarazzi, you take the most wonderful shots of your beautiful children. I cherish each and every expression! Wish I could have been there. Love, Mom
Oh my gosh! The littles are adorable beyond words. And you are such a wonderful photographer! The one of the two of them by the tree is simply gorgeous.
Sweet, sweet, sweet.
Merry Christmas to you all!!
Beautiful.....hope you are feeling better.
Hugs,

Tiffany...I love the photo of the littles with their mama! You are still glowing over there in Ohio! :) Its so disappointing when a trip doesn't turn out as planned...especially when there is so much work involved in dressing up the kids. But I still love the photo by the fountain...its so "unstaged" and just shows what kids are really all about. The photo at home by the tree is gorgeous...my favorite one! I hope you guys are feeling better soon!
Love and Hugs from St. Louis!

Having recently been at that mall and seen Santa and his "throne", I agree w/Lily. This particular Santa seems a little grumpy and only smiles when the camera is clicking. I waved at him and he did not wave back. :-(
However, kudos to you for making a a valiant effort to get a Christmas picture of Lily and Ty with Santa. They both look like they stepped out of a catalog! The pictures that you took make up for the Santa visit. They are wonderful.
(Hope u had some aspirin at home!)

Ty & Lily are just the sweetest! Love all the photos!
Hope your feeling better soon.
