Last night we took Chloe to the mall to introduce her to Santa. We were a little nervous about this adventure (We all have see Christmas Story), but it went remarkably smooth!! Santa was on a break when we got there, so we had to wait a little. By the time all was said and done we were only in line for 30 minutes (or I should say I was in line...Brook took Chloe strollin' to get some gifts). The Santa was very good. He looked great and Chloe really liked him (no crying). Little did we know you don't have to buy their pictures. You can wait in line, plop your kid on the big guy's lap, and snap your own photo. Next Year.... This year we paid for the professional photo, but I think it turned out great.
Other big news on the Bender front is that Chloe is taking real steps. She will let go of whatever she is holding onto and stand for a few seconds. The other night she walked back and forth between me and Brook several times. Each time she took about 4 steps. We really think she will be walking by Christmas and at the latest, by her birthday. My next goal is to try to get her walking on video. As soon as I do, I will post.
12 more days till Christmas.......are you ready??
Happy Holidays,
Love,
The Benders

You think it is great now that she is taking a few steps...but wait until Christmas when you are after her all day because she can walk faster than she can crawl and there is all kinds of fun things to get into;o)
Can't wait to see the video!!
