Today we went to see Santa. Let's just say the day before Christmas Eve is not the best day to go as everyone is trying to fit it in, but we avoided meltdowns from both Tyler and Rilyn so that is good.
I was pretty sure we would end up with an awesome screaming baby photo but apparently Rilyn does not discriminate at all when it comes to men and cuddling. For awhile now anytime someone holds her she will lay her head on them and suck her thumb for a total of 5 seconds.
Well, Rilyn loved Santa and just wanted to cuddle...no smiling for the camera...just loves. At one point even Santa fell in love and said we could just leave her. The impatient cranky elf taking pictures was not so smitten nor patient with the mother who kept saying, "oh she loves Santa" "look how cute she is" "I can't decide on the picture." Yep, lots of dirty looks from the elf, but really who cares about the elves? Santa is the boss and Rilyn is definitely on the good list!
