“That’s beautiful. What is that, velvet?”– Coming to AmericaSo I convinced my dad to dress as Santa in order to avoid the ridiculous lines and overpriced but somehow average pics with an anorexic, or worse, mullet wearing mall Santa.
Remember him? Absolutely ridic. Almost made me cuss.
Plus, I thought ‘Grandpa Santa’ would make for one of them ‘kodak moments’ that somehow eluded me at the Pumpkin Patch.
Although an excellent plan in theory, my child- who has somewhat outgrown her earlier and hilariously random phobias- was absolutely petrified. Despite my best attempts at a proper introduction, Boog went krraaaayyyy!
While Gia and I were in the other room, my mother paraded my velvet and faux fur wearing dad into the living room. I then walked in real casual like and eased onto his lap trying to keep Gia from knowing the goings on.
who dat?
Hell naw! Nope, not even.
Syl tried to distract her with a Yo Gaba Gaba episode…
She recognized his voice but was so terribly confused… ‘did you eat my paw-paw?!’
that one solitary tear, while Santa’s smizing 🙂
As good as it gets…
My turn! Fluff, fluff, fluff! 
I asked for a babysitter…
Mr. and Mrs. Claus
MAC’s Ruby Woo lipstick… per YOUR suggestion! What ya think?

o this is pure comedy. haha
i'm so late, but that series of photos is hilarious! po baby couldn't get right. been hearing good things about this lipstick; i just found a really nice bold red at sephora. it's like a deep berry color with the slightest hint of orange to it. it's my first red and i love it!
That was sooo funny. Now I know not to feel bad when my little one screams at the thought of Santa. Well, it's not that you didn't try.. A mom's work is never done 🙂
Gia is smarter than a 5th grader. You can't pull nothing over on her. Glad she settled down so you could get your picture!! OBTW the lipstick looks very nice!!
KinkyNappyHappy
Laughed so loud at the photo recaps! you are hilarious, Nikki!. Nice try, though 🙂
The lipstick is FIERCE!! I need to go to MAC and get it now!! Cute baby pics
Lmao Nikki that 5th picture of Gia crying once she realizes whats going on is priceless I can't stop laughing. The camera person did an excellent job at capturing each moment. You look beautiful as usual, Happy Holidays!
LOL. And you look very pretty in these pics.
LMFAO!!!! these pictures are priceless. I love the Ruby Woo on you and of course your hair, hmm now I need to head out to MAC and try this one out. 🙂
It's about time that Ruby Woo looks gorgeous on you girly–keep it up! Got to get your adult sexy on!
SO CUTE AND SO FUNNY. I HOPE YOU HAD A HAPPY CHRISTMAS. AND I WISH YOU A HAPPY NEW YEAR 2012.
GOD BLESS.

Maybe you can photoshop the mullet part out? Gia looks so cute in that picture…
You know I am team red lip!!! Looks great on you! Mark my words on 9:51am Monday December 26th, this is only the beginning with your soon to come obsession and delight in lipstick! So happy you have joined the wild side. How did you feel with it?
-Shanti
Stop the maddness!!! HAHA!
I can't stop laughing! Hope you enjoyed your Christmas Nik!
You should also try MAC Red….NARS and Chanel also have some nice red shades. Any woman can wear red,you just have to know your undertone…..are you cool( you have red undertones, you look better in silver) or are you warm(you have a yellow undertone and you look good in gold)? Check out Michelle Phan she spoke about this. I have a warm undertone and MAC Red works well for me. My sister is cool and she uses the same color and it looks nice on her as well.
Wow your hair is so long and looking great! And wow, these Boogie stories always have me cracking up! She's so beautiful and so hilarious at the same time! Your captions just slay me
Funnty!!!!!!
OMG, Nikki– you look so much like your sister in that last picture! Gia is too cute! She wasn't having ANY of that ish. Other than dealin' with the terror of Black Santa, I hope you had a great Christmas!
LOL awwww poor Boogs, she looks terrified!! haha Well you look like you had a wonderful Christmas, God Bless you and your fam 🙂
May I just say:
a) The black Santa Claus is genius! Love it and I plan to do that w/ my children and
b) LOVE the Mac Ruby Woo ! I have it and it's the best matte lipstick I've ever encountered! Also, the MAC Rebel lipstick is very pretty. It's a satin lip stick but it has amazing shine and you almost never have to re-apply it.
Beautiful pictures! Merry Christmas to you and yours! I pray that your was day was a Blessed one filled with lots of joy!
OMG the 5th pic of her crying had me rolling!!! Hysterical! Love the lipstick on you. I think it looks amazing and I might just run to the MAC store tomorrow and buy one for myself.
Love the hair and the mac ruby woo lipstick, it's perfect for us chocolate girls!
Nikk, you had me rollin' with laughter with your captions for what baby Gia would be saying if she could talk. The pictures are a treasure, just adorable. Your hair was "the whip" girl. You looked good and YEP the lipstick was working for you. Did I say your hair was gorgeous? Okay, just checking. (LOL) Have a wonderful New Year.

OMG those pictures are too cute! I used to be terrified of santa too so I know how the little one feels…..Glad you got at least a couple shots…..
And the lip color and hair are beautiful!!

Funny pics! Your hair looks different and cute. I definitely think the bold lip is stepping up your sexy, but I don't Ruby Woo is YOUR shade. I suggest looking for a shade of red that's a little darker and warmer (like Chili, Dare You To, or Russian Red in the MAC brand).
I'm liking the lipstick and hair. Very nice. Your dad definitely makes a better Santa.
Your hair and YOU look AMAZING! Merry Christmas!
Niki!!!!. Thank you so much for taking the time to share this with us. Especially at such a hectic time.
The pics are simply adorable. You are Crazy FAB.( like you had a glam squad prep). LUVed it all.
Merry Christmas and many blessings!!!

Merry Christmas!

Merry Christmas Ms. Nikki to you and your loved ones! You look absolutely sexy with that red on, very nice look 🙂

Am I wrong for not taking my 1 year old to see Santa this year because I knew she would probably kick Santa in the man parts and run in terror?! I love your family pics! You are working that Ruby Woo honey! And if those are the Steve Madden P-Ginna boots in Cognac, I understand your addiction! I have them too! Be blessed doll!
Merry Christmas Nikki!
Those pics are priceless!
Merry Christmas.
I couldn't help but laugh. Gia's too much.
Flawless. And I couldn't stop laughing! Love your stories!
Oh, and I have to point out, your sister has eyes and brows identical to your father's!! It's so apparent in the pic with the two of them together!
Woman you look gorgeous! My son reacted the same way. Its so funny. Off subject. You look great post-pregnancy. It took me 1yr to get my pre baby body back.
YES! I love your family posts! Gia is a riot and your hair and makeup is perfect! Merry Christmas everyone!
Girl you are bonkers! Thanks for sharing!
OMGosh, Rhonda C, stop it! I can't take it! Hilarious!!!!
Thanks ladies and I hope your tomorrow is full of joy, love and things of that nature 🙂
So excited about the Ruby Woo… I was a little self conscious while rocking it at the mall, but after a while it grew on me. Plus, it got hubby's stamp of approval ;0)
By the bye–
hair- twist-out (8 of them) on a dirty 2.5 week old blow-out (twisted with a little Dax)
Sweater- Gap
Jeggings- PacSun (of course!)
Boots- Steve Madden… I wear them EVERYDAY!
Boogs' screaming pic definitely had me rofl! She's grown so much!
Nik, you are trying to kill 'em!!! You look amazing!! What did you do differently with your hair? You're showing length!!
And, OMGawh, Gia and Santa Daddy is hilarious!!! I almost cried laughing!!
First, I love your look. I've been sporting Ruby Woo for a few years now (recommended by Mop Top Maven). She was on point and so are you with your appropriately-red pout! Me likey!
As for Gia and the pic with Paw-Paw-Santa, a freakin' riot! Who can blame the poor child? Wasn't it obvious that some man in an oversized red velour suit ate her beloved paw-paw? Where's the outrage? Where's the urgency? Someone call 9-1-1 stat? And……..get me the hell outta here!
Your family shenanigans are hilarious! Wish I were there!
I am laughing while trying not to let tears drop at Gia and mall Santa(WTH?!!)
She is adorable!! and you look great, WERK Ruby Woo, IT. LOOKS. GOOD. ON. YOU!!!(remember Bruce Bruce from Bet Comedy Shows)anywho
MERRY CHRISTMAS from the Wright Family
Your hair and makeup… WERK!!!!
You're such a good mommie Nik! Merry Christmas!
Merry Christmas!
Poor Gia, y'all tried :/.
I enjoyed the pictures. Ruby Woo looks good on you.
Screaming laughing at this entire post!!!!!
OMG I'm absolutely crying @ the mall Santa! Who thought that was a good idea?!
you look flawless. I love your holiday hair! 🙂
