But since he got so popular he went to higher things (tv shows) and was replaced. The replacement is blah. </p> <p>This was Mavrick's first pic with Santa. so magical. </p> [attach=62/12/mehf68.576x562.Screen-shot-2012-12-03-at-8.08.12-PM.png] https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/pictures-with-santa-a-must#post-430089 Mon, 03 Dec 2012 19:53:10 +0000 Maysprout 430089@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>If by picture with santa you mean picture of LO running away from santa scared. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/pictures-with-santa-a-must#post-430083 Mon, 03 Dec 2012 19:49:38 +0000 littlecasita1122 430083@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>No desire here either...glad I'm not the only one who feels like this haha! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/pictures-with-santa-a-must#post-429782 Mon, 03 Dec 2012 15:57:36 +0000 shopaholic 429782@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Awww....I'm excited to do Santa pics next year. I even love the crying ones...they're priceless! Would the grandparents take LO for pics? I know my in-laws took our nephews for all their pics. And @Mrs. Sunglasses: my MIL took nephew #2 for Santa pics because everyone else got too lazy to take him for pics. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/pictures-with-santa-a-must#post-429781 Mon, 03 Dec 2012 15:56:54 +0000 lovehoneybee 429781@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I kind of want to, but then DH reminded me how much I hate crowds this time of year, and how anxious and crazy a Santa line would make me, and @stargal: just reminded me that "Santa" comes to visit at my BIL's house every Christmas to hand out a few toys he forgot to deliver the night (usually played by either FIL or DH) so I can get a picture of that then. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/pictures-with-santa-a-must#post-429774 Mon, 03 Dec 2012 15:53:35 +0000 hellobeeboston 429774@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>ha - i thought i was the only one. I am definitely not planning on bringing LO to see Santa until he asks to go. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/pictures-with-santa-a-must#post-429705 Mon, 03 Dec 2012 15:28:31 +0000 sarac 429705@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Lol, I have no plans. If my daughter ever wants to, I'll happily take her. But she'd just scream if I tried to give her to a stranger. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/pictures-with-santa-a-must#post-429490 Mon, 03 Dec 2012 14:03:25 +0000 cyndistar3 429490@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We went to the mall last year to have Caidence take pictures with Santa, I took my camera though and didn't spend any money on ordering pictures. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/pictures-with-santa-a-must#post-429445 Mon, 03 Dec 2012 13:46:06 +0000 Mrs. Train 429445@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I do but it's my parents and they come to our Christmas party. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/pictures-with-santa-a-must#post-429420 Mon, 03 Dec 2012 13:35:24 +0000 Bao 429420@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We always did it as a tradition when I was little, so although you pay an arm and a leg, its something id like to continue with LO :) If you don't want to do it, don't do it! no biggie! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/pictures-with-santa-a-must#post-429419 Mon, 03 Dec 2012 13:35:06 +0000 travelgirl1 429419@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My co worker's sister takes her rabbits to the mall for Santa pics, all 8 of them, then emails the pictures around the whole family like they're grandkids or something. Pretty funny but actually cute pics! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/pictures-with-santa-a-must#post-429417 Mon, 03 Dec 2012 13:33:57 +0000 Mrs. Yoyo 429417@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We took LO to a Santa brunch yesterday and he was TERRIFIED of Santa. I don't think we'll be getting any photo ops. Like, not even of him crying with him, because he will NOT let go of me near Santa. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/pictures-with-santa-a-must#post-429411 Mon, 03 Dec 2012 13:32:28 +0000 alongfarview 429411@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>So, I think maybe it's because I never did Santa pictures when I was growing up, but I have never felt any desire to do Santa pictures with my kiddo (or the Easter Bunny, or any other character where you have to wait in line at a mall)... maybe I'll feel differently next Christmas when I actually have a baby and not just pregnant, but I doubt it... all to say that no I certainly don't think you're a bad mom for not wanting to do santa pics! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/pictures-with-santa-a-must#post-429404 Mon, 03 Dec 2012 13:30:41 +0000 autumnlove 429404@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I never took a pic with Santa so I really want LO to have a few! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/pictures-with-santa-a-must#post-429372 Mon, 03 Dec 2012 13:15:08 +0000 SugarplumsMom 429372@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I love seeing crying with mall-Santa pictures! We weren't going to do it, but there was a free stall at the mall last week. I'm thinking about stopping by just to take 1 picture, idk if it's really worth the hassle though. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/pictures-with-santa-a-must#post-429370 Mon, 03 Dec 2012 13:14:12 +0000 Andrea 429370@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I've tried for the last two years, without success, so she can't blame me for not trying. I'm a superstar mom, haha!! The blame is all on her for not wanting to get within a foot of Santa!! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/pictures-with-santa-a-must#post-429368 Mon, 03 Dec 2012 13:11:31 +0000 banana 429368@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We didn't do it but I love seeing photos of other kids with santa. Especially when they're crying or screaming. Ok that sounds mean but you know what I mean... haha </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/pictures-with-santa-a-must#post-429363 Mon, 03 Dec 2012 13:10:31 +0000 Mrs. Sunglasses 429363@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I just feel bad, because we did it for Mavricks first christmas but then we'd skip it for Sienna? It just makes the whole, the second time around not as special for the kid. no? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/pictures-with-santa-a-must#post-429311 Mon, 03 Dec 2012 12:51:02 +0000 stargal 429311@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Ya I don't want to pay 30 bucks for a 5 by 7 pic of p not looking at the camera. My hubs is going to dress up as Santa so o could still get a pic of pierson with "Santa" </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/pictures-with-santa-a-must#post-429296 Mon, 03 Dec 2012 12:48:03 +0000 Mrs. Pen 429296@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>nope. We're not doing it.
