Visit with Santa



As you can see, Karoline still has a lingering case of Santaphobia. Not at all interested in sitting on his lap, but we did manage to snap a couple quick ones with her standing next him whilst clutching herself and hiding her fear behind a forced smile. Waited in line for over an hour and she was all about it until we were five minutes from the front. She was the same way with Santa calling on the phone last week, too; couldn't stop asking when he was gonna call, but as soon as the phone rang, she ran for cover!

She did however let Daddy read her the letter from Santa without covering her ears or running away. We'll tell Santa to stick to written correspondence for a while. Maybe next year!

Karoline's Getting a Baby Sister!


It turns out that Mommy's constant nausea was not a sign that it's a boy after all! That's ok - girlz rule!

Karoline's First Big-time Boo-boo


Yesterday, Karoline overshot the swing at Ma and Pappap's house, did a faceplant in the dirt, and bit almost all the way through her bottom lip. Mommy and Ma rushed her to the hospital where she got five big fat stiches and was VERY VERY BRAVE AND DIDN'T CRY OR FUSS AT ALL WHILE THE DOCTOR SEWED HER UP!

Day at the Farm




Karoline has been having quite the tour of pumpkin patches and petting zoos this Fall. This past weekend, she visited her Gramma in St. Mary's County and hit Bowles' Farm with some friends (shout out to Baby Caleb!) From top: expertly navigating her way through the challenging strawbale maze; playing in the corn-box with some other kids and some shadows; chillin' with a giant, flag-waving Spongebob Squarepants; and taking a ride in the Dora car of the Barrel Train.

Little Slugger



Here's "Lefty" Karoline punishing the ball on a beautiful September afternoon. I think she'll be ready for T-Ball with an actual team next year!

Karoline's First Day of School!



Karoline started Pre-school today! She did great - no tears or clinging to mommy and daddy when it was time for them to leave! Such a big girl!

Braids


Went to Myrtle Beach last week; on our way out, Karoline decided that she had to have her hair braided. So that's what we did.
