As part of a deep multi-year non-redundant aperture mask infrared imaging campaign observing transition disks, we present multi-epoch monitoring of the resolved emission seen within the disk gap of LkCa 15. Orbital motion of both the central source and extended lobes as presented in Kraus and Ireland (2012) is clearly detected at the level of ~4 degrees/year (deprojected), in both K and L'-bands. Based on these data as well as single-epoch H and M bands epochs, we present two models for the central source - thermal emission as a planetary accretion signature and scattering. The thermal emission model is preferred.
