SANTA

I was really hoping to get this picture with Santa. Cale and I had visited Santa at the mall a few weeks ago- and although she waved at him and touched his furry coat-she had NO desire to sit with him. Today, she clung to me for dear life- but we were all able to see Santa. When it was time to go- she told Santa bye a few times and waved. She tries to say Santa- it comes out mostly "Sa" but at least she tries.
PS. there may not be a Christmas card from our family this year- this might be it!

Smile!

SNOW!

I think we found a couple "kids" that like this weather!

Raking leaves

The weather was nice- so of course- we were outside all afternoon. Cale helped pick up leaves and put them in the bag. Mainly though- her focus was on listening for airplanes in the sky. Cale is pretty fond of the holiday lights- however, only until bedtime. She does not like them on when she is trying to sleep...

Little Drummer Girl

Cale is so busy these days- it is hard to get a still photo of her! Seems like I can barely get her to stop long enough to take the picture. Here is her best drummer girl- nothing like playing with part of the vacuum!
One of her favorite things to do is "dance" to Christmas music in the kitchen. Basically- she spins in circles and waves her arms around. I hope to get some video of that soon.
