This was the first Christmas Vivien was okay with Santa. I don’t blame her for being less than excited to sit on a strangers warm lap, but it did feel like a little victory that she was good with old Saint Nick this year. Notice how she was at 15 months when I first tried to get her to sit with Santa. No go.
,
This year she went with her best friend and a week later took this picture with her cousin Lily.
She told me she would not have done it alone. “I’m brave with my friend.”
But let’s be real, the ’09 Santa was a much better Santa than the ’06 one. She can spot a phoney, phoney.
Vivian is a smart chick. I still think most Santa’s a bit creepy…and what kind of guy applies for that job, anyways???
She is gorgeous BTW — and I love her dress — v. cute!
You should see my daughter’s Santa pic..she’s got both of her arms outstretched trying to get out of Santa’s lap and into daddy’s arms who was trying to make her smile and mommy was behind the camera lady trying to pic which picture looked less “Get me out of this guy’s lap he’s creepy!!”
HAHA
BTW, Vivien is beautiful just like her momma!
