Santa Claus is coming to town!

Ok, so not just yet, but he will be here soon! In the meantime, we took Riley to see Santa and get those oh so cherished yearly Santa photos. Let me just say, this child was scaling the walls to get away from this stranger we kept calling Santa! We were desperately trying to convince her that he was ok to hang with but she is much smarter than that and knew this man was not in her group of "people." The "elf" snapped as many pictures as she could and tried to convince me that the photos weren't that bad. I'm just going to have to let go and realize that 18 months just isn't the best age for Santa pictures. I have to give Riley some credit though, she didn't cry one bit. She did, however, just give that look of a deer caught in the head lights x 10! Cheers for no tears!


And just to take a look back at how much can change in 1 year, here is Riley's 2008 Santa picture.
