Santa's Coming!!!

Calder is a bit young to understand Christmas but we went ahead with the Santa picture and lots of presents. Santa said he would be just as good to him as we would be. Lucky boy! Such a good boy too, not a tear or frown when with Santa. This is the best Santa I have seen, he even made me do a double-take as my inner child softly wondered, "Santa?".



Calder is getting right into the spirit of things, he is really laughing and smiling a lot lately. I think he can sense the excitement in the air as the people who love him gear up for the holidays.



Calder really loves to read. Daddy and mommy love to watch him investigate books.



One of the rituals "in the making" is the nightly reading of stories to Calder. Daddy loves this time with Calder. Especially when Calder is so interested in it. Daddy had a rough time feeding him prior to the book reading as you might notice from the shirt with formula stains. Calder calmed right down when the reading began.



Calder's mom loves to read to him too. She has much more time to do that and I am a wee bit jealous. OK, mucho jealouso. We stayed home today and daddy got to spend some precious time with Calder. We'll be seeing Denny, Alicia and Norah next week. We decided it would be too crazy to meet up on the busy shopping day of the year, so we postponed and spent time with our families. See you guys soon! And Merry Christmas! (you admitted you read the blog so I had to say hi!)



Calder is growing so quickly. It's amazing to witness. Every growing boy needs to be active! Check out his exercise regime!!! He started to roll over yesterday. Growing boy!


Here's my big man. Sorry for the quick blog, we have family over and my help is needed. I'll write again over the next couple of days.


Goodnight Calder, Daddy loves you!
