I like traditions... I hope that they create fond memories and excitement for my kids. This year I was so excited to start a new Christmas tradition for my family... making cookies for Santa.
Notice the tight grip he has on the one cookie. Every once in a while he will try to sneak in a bite and we have to stop him and remind him it is for Santa.
Then we decorated them with mini M&M's...
He did a good job for a while and was really getting into to it.
Then the brilliant idea struck him that he should eat one...
Mmmmm... mini M&M's are pretty tasty! Thus began the UNdecorating of the cookies for Santa... so we had to stop there.
If you look really closely you can see the voids in the icing where some M&M's used to be.
And when we got up in the morning the cookies were all gobbled up! Santa must have been pretty hungry. 
We forgot about the reindeer this year... but hopefully they will realize we are new to this as parents and forgive us this once. Next year we will be sure to leave some carrots or something out for them! Sorry reindeer!!
