    The one at MOA is good.  You have to have an appointment but he'll spend 10-15 minutes with the kids and try a variety of poses.  I think I'm going to make an appointment with him next week.

    Things I did different with this pregnancy:
    1. Waited TTC until after I had 3 normal menstrual cycles.
    2. Got a new OB - amazing man who listened!
    3. 200 mg progesterone until 12 weeks
    4. Daily lovenox injections

    the pricing isn't horrible, as long as you don't want a ton of pictures.

    Plus, if you buy something (at ANY price) they allow you to take your own. So you could buy one picture for you, and print off the ones you took yourself for the grandparents and what not

    I was just there yesterday and thought Santa had a pretty darn good beard!  I thought the Mrs. Claus was a nice added touch.

    Maplewood Mall has Santa Dan! I read that he's in remission from pancreatic cancer. The article made me cry (not really a hard thing to do), so we're going to go see him.

    He's there 5pm to close, Friday, Saturday and Sunday.

    Roseville is great and for about 32 bucks, you get some pics, a release with the cd.

    I know one of the downtown Macy's santas. He looks VERY realistic (even in street clothes, lol). He mentioned they have 4 at a time this year, so I'm not sure how you would go about finding a specific one.
    Sorry you're due during bathing suit season

    Northtown has a real beard but looked cranky. ;)  I took my own pictures and got a few extra for $20.
