Well, the CDC had pictures with Santa today. I wondered what Caleb would do since he didn't much like his last experience. (See previous post) I hid behind a pole so that maybe he wouldn't see me.
Tresia had Caleb in her arms, and she said that he was shaking from just seeing Santa. This is with standing pretty far away from him! So, when she tried to put him in Santa's lap, it just wasn't going to work. Caleb was not going to stay in Santa's lap no matter what.
So I came out from behind the pole, and took at picture with Santa with me holding Caleb.
Hopefully next year will be better. I'm sure he'll have the whole Christmas thing figured out by then and know that he needs to be nice to the Santa guy. I was hoping to take Caleb to the mall Santa to get another picture, but after today's scary experience with the big red man, I don't think I have it in me to make him go through it again.
So, when I get the picture, I will make sure to post it on here.
Oh, also, Caleb got a shiner at school this morning. He was playing with the cars that you can sit in, and he fell and BOOM! Tresia brought him in so I could see him, and it is quite the boo-boo he has. I tried to take a picture of that too (I know, I'm such a mean mom!), but he kept wanting to grab the camera from me and then run away. I'll try to get one tonight. He'll love those pictures when he's all grown up! :)

You know - I am probably not even going to try with Kimber - she does not want to and will throw a fit. As strong willed as she is - it isn't even worth it. It kind of makes me sad - but I don't know if she will ever let him touch her. She is okay to say hi to him but does not want to be touched.
