The meltdown

That speck in the distance would be Calia, running and screaming about needing to look "down here" to find a tree, when we had already found the one we wanted.

So mad.

The 5th Annual Christmas Tree cut down.

Calia, Daddy and Coda

Nolan and Mommy

So serious!

Cutting it down.

Amazing!

Dressed and ready to go get our tree.

Sunday night...don't worry..he bounces back quickly.

Nolan after finishing a whole stage 2 jar of food for dinner!

And mastering the sippy cup!

While Nolan was eating, Calia took off all her clothes,

wrapped herself in her blankie and ran through the house...

Apparently, she was going streaking.

Last Tuesday, Nolan..with his 103.7 temp, a right ear infection and a tooth cutting through...not his usual happy self.

The Diva Fashionista...or so she thinks!

When Calia woke from her nap, last week, she was upset that the arms on her dress shrunk...really it is size 24 months and the sleeves have been 3/4 length for months. She needed to take it off immediately, but refused to take the tights off, and wanted to wear this turtle neck with tights...no pants or skirt. Oh and don't forget the boots, always have to have the boots.

Ok, back to the kids...

Nolan has Coda's ear!!

But, Calia has Nolan's sock!

Cute boy
(the close up of this pic was nothing but drool and boogers...yum!)

Calia explains the colors of the street lights...

Not to be outdone...

Calia noticed that she could fit almost all of her hand in her back pockets...except her thumbs. Then proceeded to walk around the house like this, asking "How does it look?" My reply was "too cool" Then we had to take multiple pictures, so she could see...

The basic pose
