Gabriella has loved playing with stuffed singing Santas, hearing songs about him, seeing his picture, and even saying both "Santa" and "Clause" (though not together). However, as you are about to see, visiting Santa himself is a different story! While in line waiting to see Santa at Barnes & Noble, Gabriella saw him and was so excited and eager! (Mommy thought this was a great sign). As we got w/in a few feet of him, she clung to Mommy, buried her head in her shoulder, and began shaking. What?! She would barely look at him, and would certainly not touch or talk to him. She was terrified. (I have to admit that his "ho, ho, ho" was a little creepy, lol). I tried for a few mins. to persuade her, but the closer she got to him, the more she trembled. Noni insisted that Mommy sit her on his lap for atleast one picture...poor baby...that was awful! Hopefully next time will be better...
Checking him out...
"Too close, Mommy, too close"
"You're NOT talking me in to this"
"Don't leave me!"
"Help!!!"
We tried cheering her up outside of the bookstore by sitting next to a giant reindeer.
My pretty baby
She's saying her name "Gabi-lella", which always makes her smile
Little doll
Having fun with Noni
