Christmas Eve/Connor's Birthday

Connor had a really wonderful birthday! He spent most of the day enjoying time with Grandma, Ba and his Uncle Derek (who he is quite literally obsessed with). In the evening we went to Christmas Eve mass. Even though we arrived 30+ minutes early, it was already standing room only. No complaints from me, as we got to stand right behind my (not-so-secret) boyfriend, Harry Connick Jr! He lives in our town and this is our second encounter with him (the first is another story). It was all I could do not to whip out my iphone for a picture during the sharing of peace ;) Then back home (Harry declined to join us) we had a wonderful birthday dinner and cake for Connor and opened presents. Some pics from the day:

Another Santa Baby! Thanks Stacy for my cute outfit!

Can you guess who's naughty and who's nice around here? I only joke, it looks like Connor is about to hit her with this but its attached to the chair and he's only holding onto it. I'm sure he's being way too loud here though and probably even shaking her chair.

Leyla in her Christmas dress for church. This was my first time putting her in tights and she looked so cute! Now if she'd only grow some of that baby thigh chunk so she will fill them out a bit. Oh how I love dressing this little lady...

Baby Girl, totally wiped out from the days' festivities!

Setting out cookies and milk for Santa! Connor also sprinkled some reindeer food out front.

Thanks so much to everyone who sent cards or gifts or called, Connor is one very lucky little boy!!
