Visit to Santa

Darcy enjoyed meeting Santa and letting him know that she has been a very good girl and she would like a Red Rider BB gun with a compass in the stock and this thing that tells time for Christmas. He told her she'd shoot her eye out.

She was a little sleepy while we were getting her set up, but still pretty happy. Then the genius helper elf BLEW in her face - are there any babies out there who would smile at that?!? Seriously, I can't believe that they were making the older kids use peppermint hand sanitizer before they could climb onto Santa's lap, but they blow their Food Court scented breath at a baby's face? It certainly wouldn't make me smile (it's flu season, people!!) but Darcy definitely doesn't like the old "blow-in-my-face" trick, it makes her scream bloody murder. So things went downhill rapidly from there. We got some cute pics of her in her snowman dress though, before the face-melting screaming started.

Santa assures me that he will bring me a good night's sleep. We'll see if that fat old elf lives up to his word.
