Finally made it out to get our picture with Santa Claus. I debated about whether or not to do it, on the one hand it's traditional and I love looking back at all our vintage pictures with Santa. On the other hand it is kind of commercial and possibly not fun for babies. I wanted to go to the Eaton Centre figuring it was the classic choice (wasn't a Christmas Story filmed there?), but apparently they no longer do photos there, Santa has gone futuristic and now only does Skype visits so we ended up, as usual at the Dufferin Mall (my Santa research had proven that he is a legendary Santa among local malls since he has a real beard).
Little M did not as I expected cry, but kind of sat there staring at everyone with a look of shocked wonder, the middle aged camera elf tried to make her smile by shaking a Mickey Mouse stuffed animal with bells on it at her, not knowing about her extreme aversion (borderline phobia) of Christmas stuffed animals. She did manage to crack a mini smile and we were good to go. Considering the joys of photoshop you think we could've gotten a sharper image with a little less redness everywhere, am I being too critical? I promise to stop being a Christmas picture Scrooge...
