Snow/Christmas party

An unusual event happened last Saturday morning. It snowed!! Of course this was the Saturday that we were taking Caleb to get Christmas pictures made that morning so he didn't have much time to play in it. So, right before we left we went on the deck to see how he liked the snow. I had to place him on the snow in order to get some pictures. He wasn't sure he wanted to be on the snow. He walked back over to the place on the deck where there wasn't snow to stand on. I think if we had more time out in it he would have liked it. He better like it we are going to spend a week in Wisconsin where they should have lots of snow!

Walking back to the clear spot

Checking out the snow thinking "I don't want to be out here where it's wet and I can get dirty!" haha

His 2 main comfort items he rarely lets go of...his paci and "choo choo book".

Mom's Night Out Christmas party with the playgroup friends. We ate at the Acropolis restaurant and had an ornament exchange. It's always a fun time with these ladies!


Today was the last day of school for this year! So all the classes had Christmas parties and book exchange. I was able to escape my classroom for a few minutes to be with Caleb. Here is Caleb eating his hot dog since he will not eat the pizza provided. :) He did eat the Goldfish and sugar cookies that were brought.

Looks like he's trying to take a juice box

He ate the sugar cookies!! First time ever!! The teachers helped them decorate the cookies with icing and sprinkles but he did not want to eat that one. He just pointed to it and talked about it's "2 eyes". :)

I am just shocked he ate the cookies! He must not have had enough lunch so he was forced to eat them. haha

The kids got to pick out the gift they wanted. So Caleb picks out the gift bag instead of the wrapped presents. I told him to open it but instead he took it to his teacher thinking he was supposed to give it to her. He was probably remembering when I tried to get him to take his teacher her gift on Tuesday but he wouldn't do it.

Reading the 2 books he opened. He got a Tiger and Winnie the Pooh book. The Thomas book in the picture is the one from class that he didn't want to put down as usual. I finally got him to look at his new books. :)
