Kallee and the winter so far

Kallee and the season of snow

Just like her Mother and Grandma Lee, Kallee version of snow is this, “It’s COLD!!”. Kallee is a summer girl who survives the winter. But she still is happy and she enjoys life. When we get home each night, Kallee will hang with the boys for a few minutes, and then goes inside. We leave the front door open with the Storm door closed and she watches us from the friendly confines of the house. She tells us by banging what she wants and Jayden usually helps me get her watch she needs. If Kallee has to go outside, we definitely cloth her up to the max so that she can stand the cold.


Kallee is also still in the thumb sucking mode. That is her vice, as well as her puppy. It is a puppy that was bought at carters last year and she has it with her all the time. She also has two favorite blankets that she wants to be covered by or she will throw a fit. She has been prone to crying every night before going to bed, which is a phase that we hope she grows out of soon. So far it is because she wants a story or a glass of water or something like that. But once she is ready, she falls asleep quickly.
Kallee helped decorate the Christmas tree in the front with Jayden and I believe they did a wonderful job. I think both of them will catch my “need for Mucho Christmas Spirit”, in terms of Lights and festivities and such. As for my attitude of grouchiness the rest of the time I am hoping that gene does not hold.
Kallee still torments her older brother by taking his hot wheels and geo trax’s. Whatever he is playing, she is surely going to want. Kallee is starting to play with her dolls, carrying them around and putting them into their strollers and talking to them. Kallee also loves to listen to stories read to her by her mommy and made up by her daddy. I just make up the words because really she just likes looking at the pics and turning the pages. Also she had her first social calendar event in which she was invited to a School Birthday party. It was fun as she told me she danced and laughed and tumbled and played.


Right now some of the memories that I will take with me of Kallee are many. One of my favorite things is her gutty throat laugh. The one from the bottom of the belly, that when Kallee laughs, it sounds pure and joyful and a little devious. Kallee makes me smiles all the time with that laugh. The smile and her big eyes, as well as her kicking legs in her car seat and highchair (not my favorite). Kallee also has three favorite things in the world (besides candy which is her true love), and they are her puppy and her two blankets. Kallee will not go to sleep easily without those things. It will be a fight for minutes and she does not forgive easily. That is all for now,,, but with the Christmas Holliday coming there will be more. I love the fact that she likes to sit in my chair before I get there knowing that I am going to sit there. Or when she moves my legs around so that she can go in and out of them. Or that she wants to be carried places and needs to be able to touch you so that she is comfortable. Kallee is a joyful little girl who can make you smile alot or go crazy.

Kallee had a great time during Thanksgiving playing with her cousins and she even did not do a bad job eating as well. It was a good time for all. Kallee loved the pumpkin moose and pumpkin pie as well as the Okinawan pork roast. Madeline kept her entertained and for that I was grateful.

Kallee has so much of myself in her it is hard to imagine me not having her in my life. She and I will get into huge battles, but in the end we will know each other enough to know that I will always love her and she will always be my little girl.
