Sadie shocked everyone when she walked up to the "open mic" at WBP's Thanksgiving luncheon and volunteered herself to sing a song. When the time came though, she froze, but her going up there gave cousin Chase the courage to do his planned performance, and once he was done, she did her's. Not quite a "song" but more like a one liner ;)

Callie is also growing up way too fast and learning new things everyday. Her favorite things in life right now are: ice chips, bananas, and gnawing on carrots. So far she's a very good eater -- we have yet to find something she doesn't eat, lol. She's a very good sleeper at night, but not much of a napper. She also seems to be very "vocal"…..the noise level when all 4 kids get together will soon be unbearable!
We are getting ready for Xmas, and this year the kids are excited every morning to find their "Elf on the Shelf," who Sadie named Abbie. (Thanks Aunty Jenn!)
We joined in on the Yamashita's tradition of going to the Gingerbread house festival this year. We all had a great time, but realistically I think mommy had more fun than Sadie. Next year, we will be seasoned pros -- we just have to remember to bring some extra candies, cereals, crackers that'll make our house stand out from the houses with just the normal jelly beans, gum drops, and gummy bears!
