Here's Cora following our
very cold Stroller Strides session on Friday. At least, it was very cold by our standards. It was about 40 degrees when we started (4 or 5 degrees C), so we were dressed in layers, and we had to be careful on the paseo bridges because of a thin layer of ice. We had a cold storm during the week, which brought frost to our roofs, ice to Stace's windscreen and lots of snow to all the local mountains and hills.
After class, we headed to Starbucks for our annual Christmas party and gift exchange, where everyone brings one gift and we play a game to see what we take home. Also, Shelly, our lead instructor, gave out gifts, including the snowmen Cora and baby Brooke are playing with above. Now, Cora generally isn't a fan of snowmen, and at first when she opened it she said she was "all done." But after some encouragement, she decided he was "Cora's snowman" and he was OK.
With the cold weather, we decided it was time to go check out the Christmas lights on some of SClarita's most festive streets.
Cora handled it very well, considering how she is not-too-into many forms of Christmas decoration. She would name off things she likes - deer, rocking horses, Pooh Bear, Tigger - and say "all done" to the things she didn't, and walk on. Below, an example of Cora's all-doneness.
