Thanksgiving to Christmas...


The three of us escaped to Florida for Thanksgiving- last trip before Baby Girl arrives!

Cal snuggling with his fuzzies after a long day at the beach...

Cal's morning swims wiped him out! We rarely made it back to the hotel before he began his afternoon nap.

Calvin became very fond of bird watching (and chasing) while on the island.

Cool Cal ready to take off on his jet ski!

Dada and Cal insisted on bringing the Tonka to Florida.

Once back in St. Louis, the countdown to Christmas began!
Here's Cal and Dada with the "neigh" at the St. Charles Christmas Festival.

Our tree proved you can't pick one out by yourself!

Off to the Botanical Gardens for the train exhibit.

Cal couldn't contain his excitement!

The fact that Cal couldn't touch the trains drove the little guy to a near panic attack and eventually us out the door.

Both Calvin and his father LOVE getting their pictures taken!

Decorating ornaments and eating cookies at the Art Museum.


Cal at home inspecting all of his ornaments he made at the SLAM.

Cool Cal finally liked his sunglasses once we left Florida!

It's all fun and games until you get your finger stuck!

The cousins finally meet!

Cal practiced being a big brother on Cousin Frannie.

Here we are in Kansas City for my sweet goddaughter's baptism.

While in KC we got to go to Christmas at Union Station.

Cal on the choo choo at Union Station.

Mammaw even met us at Union Station and waited in line to see Santa for us while we played.

Here's part of the Blesi gang on Christmas Eve.

Cal and Cesi with Mac on Christmas morning.

Cal was much too busy to "cheese" (pose for the camera) while there were still presents to be opened.


Yay! Cal finally got to take Nana and Gramps to the Museum of Transportation and show off all of his choo choos.

Snow!

Cal loved playing with Nana in the snow.

Saying goodbye to sweet Cesi...
