Great Jameisms of the Holiday Season

Yesterday I decided it was time to kick off the holiday season - so I drug the Christmas decorations out of storage and began "decking the halls", however I wasn't even two hours into my new project when I hear "Mom! Ball!" Those were the last two words I heard before a glass Christmas ornament goes flying across the room. How do you explain to a toddler that some balls aren't meant to be thrown?!

This morning, JP woke up in such a good mood that I decided it would be a good time for me to take him down to the mall to have a picture taken with Santa.
Mom: Do you want to sit on Santa's knee?
JP: (shaking head) NO!

Guess he wasn't kidding.....
