Christmas is coming!!

This is a just because picture well because it is getting harder and harder to capture Connor with one of his natural smiles. He loves to ham it up for the camera. But handsome and sweet regardless. See what I'm talking about? But like I said, still pretty damn handsome. Connor has a Santa outfit for his build a bear and guess who fits into the hat with attached beard!!??
A regular little Santa with the bowl full of jelly and everything. Excuse the shot of Connor in his undies.
Having fun in the snow rolling giant snowballs. Connor and I made a snow fort and daddy made his own and we had a snow war. Connor and I aren't great shots so used the lids from the garbage cans as shields so we could invade daddy's wall unharmed.
Gee, I wonder where Connor learned to be such a ham? Really, I wouldn't be calmly taking a picture of this if Jeremy was really dropping Darien off the couch.

We went to our 2nd annual Christmas play today, Aladdin. It is a pantomine so audience participation is required. When they first came on stage and we were practicing our boos/hisses and cheers Darien started crying. He was scared, I got him calmed down and the bad guy came on stage - everyone booed - Darien cried. I got him calmed down again, the good fairy came on stage - everyone yelled YEAH - Darien cried - we left. That is Darien and I left, Connor and Jeremy stayed for the show (with intermission it was 3 hours long). I brought snacks back for the boys during the break and spent the rest of the time in the local Maple Ridge "mall" and the library (best place to nurse on a Saturday afternoon it was empty).
