Santa 2013

Tinsley and Ace did not love Santa this year.  Tinsley has never been much of a fan.  They both did really good last year.  Ace was too little to know what was going on and Tinsley loves Debbie and Laura so she did great taking pictures with Santa when they took them.  This year was a different story.  Unfortunately the Santa that Debbie and Laura know wasn't feeling well.  We hope he is feeling better next year- he and his wife are so sweet.  The Santa that we saw this year was at a different photographer's house.  Ace doesn't do well with strangers at all right now.  He is not used to different places or people because we really don't get to take him anywhere.  Tinsley also takes a while to warm up to new people.  The Santa we saw was so sweet, and the photographer was nice as well.  But, the place and people were different which they just don't do well with. Ace wanted NOTHING to do with Santa and Tinsley just sat with him to pacify us in order to get away from him as quickly as possible.

It didn't start out well from the beginning.  Santa was sitting on the bench when we walked in, so we thought we might be able to get some cute pictures of the two of them together before Santa came back.  They weren't going for it....

"No thanks, I don't want to sit on your lap and talk"

Ace REALLY didn't want to sit on his lap

I love this one- Ace sort of stopped crying for a second and then turned and looked at Santa and the screaming started again.

And then it was Tinsley's turn...

Really trying to be brave

And this is where we told her to give Santa a hug and we could go. 

Santa torture 2013 is over.  :-)

We didn't see Santa in 2010, since Tinsley was only a few days old, but 2011 and 2012 links to Santa are below.
