It's the time of year again: time to visit Santa. I knew it would be iffy this year, as Matty is old enough to now be afraid of strangers. BUT, I decided it couldn't be any worse than last year when he spit up on poor St. Nick. So, with Daddy in tow, we headed down to Bass Pro Shop again to visit Santa's Winter Wonderland.
Santa's workshop was set up right next to the boats, dirtbikes, and four-wheelers. My "all-boy" little boy was in HEAVEN as we explored the "trucks" while Daddy held our place in line.
WHEELS!
He knew just what sound to make here too (Insert cute little boy truck noises for full sound effect).
Not only were there all kinds of things that went "brrrrrr," there were FISH! Huge, fascinating, fish in a ginormous tank with a real-live waterfall.
So you can only imagine what happened when we ripped him away from all the cool stuff and forced him to sit on some bearded stranger's lap? Yep. Total meltdown. The picture was taken after the first meltdown, when we tried to distract him with a candy cane, but before the second meltdown. *Sigh* At least Santa is smiling this year.
Once we got him away from Santa and back to the fun stuff, he was completely fine. Although being completely sticky and on a sugar high (seen below) wasn't too much fun for Mommy and Daddy.
Ah, well. Santa's a pretty forgiving guy, right? I'm sure he's used to meltdowns and sticky fingers. :)
