Baby Falls Asleep Waiting For Santa But Mr Claus Isn't Fazed
The excitement of Christmas just proved to be too much for this adorable baby, who was so tired at queuing up to meet Santa Claus that he fell asleep on him.
Zeke Walters had been patiently waiting with his parents, Donnie and Kelli, to meet Father Christmas for the first time but he was snoozing by the time they actually met.
And Santa was so unfazed by having a sleeping baby on him that he too rolled over for a bit of shuteye as Zeke dozed soundly on his tummy.
The result was the cutest photo that Zeke’s parents could have hoped for.
They wrote on Facebook: “I can’t believe how adorable our son’s pictures with Santa came out.

“After falling asleep in line waiting, Santa asked us not to wake him and the outcome was the cutest thing I’ve ever seen.”
The photo understandably went viral and dad Donnie praised the actions of Santa at the Eastland Mall in Evansville, Indiana.
He told MailOnline: “I can’t say enough about how nice and kind the Santa was and how thrilled we were with the outcome of the picture.”
Donnie later uploaded another picture of Zeke after they went in to the mall to let Santa know their picture went viral - but the tot was asleep yet again.
Not even Santa can get in the way of nap time.
