Santa Squeaker- a family ATC

My youngest was born on Christmas Eve and this is his bday ATC.

Because he was a Christmas baby, the nurses gave us a stocking and Santa hat to photograph him in. We called him our Santa Squeaker. (He made these funny little squeaky dolphin noises.)

This drawing is so cute!
What a sweet Christmas gift! And how great that the nurses had a photo op idea all ready to go for you! When my son was born, the nurses suggested we put our wedding rings on his wrists to help everyone get a sense of how tiny he was. That is my favorite pic of him as a newborn and I never wouldโ€™ve thought of it on my own!
Do you by chance have that newborn photo that you can share with us? It sounds adorable!

Cute story with this!
@AudiobookLover your story is great too! Our oldest was born the first day of school and was fairly big, one nurse said, give him a lunchbox and send him to school :smiley:
