Moms-to-be, listen up! This Instagram challenge is all about you. While we're usually looking to our loyal readers to share your best kid pics, this week, it's all about the expectant mamas. Inspired by the popularity of pregnancy photo shoots, we'd love to see the special snaps that you're capturing on your very own of this amazing time in every mom's life.

To share (nonexpectant moms, you can play along too — just find an old favorite!), first make sure that you follow us on Instagram at POPSUGARMoms. Then upload the picture that you want to share, add a caption, and tag it with #POPSUGARMoms so that we can find you. We're sure that you look fabulous, so why not show off your spectacular self?

Instagram Challenge: Your Best Kids' Photos With Santa

An annual Christmas tradition for many a family, having your kids' photos taken with Santa can be fun, frightful, or just plain funny, depending on your little ones' reactions.

An annual Christmas tradition for many a family, having your kids' photos taken with Santa can be fun, frightful, or just plain funny, depending on your little ones' reactions. We were thrilled to see the response to our latest Instagram Challenge, in which you, our readers, shared so many adorable snaps of your kiddos on the lap of jolly old St. Nick. Click through to see some of our favorite photos and a big thanks to all who participated!

Instagram Challenge: It's Not Too Late to Share Your Kids' Photos With Santa!

When a visit to see Santa is part of your family's Christmas tradition, each year is likely to bring about a new reaction from your little one(s).

When a visit to see Santa is part of your family's Christmas tradition, each year is likely to bring about a new reaction from your little one(s). For all the talk about and adoration of jolly old St. Nick this time of year, actually seeing him in person is likely to elicit everything from stage fright to tears to refusal to let the next child in line take his turn. Which is exactly why the resulting photos are always so memorable. Seeing our readers' kids' photos with Santa this year is at the top of our Christmas wish list, so we hope that you'll oblige and share away!

Last call! Today's your last chance to upload your best shot to Instagram, give it a caption, and be sure to include the hashtag #lilsugar so that we can find you. We'll post our favorite pics tomorrow!

(Here's my little guy, looking just a bit perplexed on his first visit to the man in red.)
