.The Boy Who Hated Santa

20131207 christmas party (51) edit

At our ward Christmas party this weekend Ames met Santa for the first time.

Look, I’m not sure that this boy would have hated Santa so much in other conditions. You see, the room was LOUD with speakers booming the loudest dance music ever right beside Santa’s chair. Ames was on edge the entire time we were there, and it was only elevated when I handed him over to the stranger with the beard. The boy couldn't even stand to be in that room, let alone sit on Santa’s lap. It wasn't great, but you know, the pictures do make us giggle.

Otherwise, the party was fun. We really love our ward. Wish we could have stayed longer, but at least we got the rest of our Christmas shopping done afterwards and had a nice dinner out.

Ames is a very interesting little 16 month old now. So smart and funny, but really timid and nervous around large groups of people and loud noises. Hopefully this doesn't last forever.

At least he didn't suffer long.
