Double J Photos – Week 51 – Dec 14 – 20

This week starts with a selfie that was supposed to happen at preschool before James's Christmas party but instead happened at Rona later when we went to the mall for something! Not what I was hoping for but cute nonetheless!

Handsome James on his way to his Christmas party. More pictures from the party will be in a separate post coming soon.

The next day we were up super early (4am) and on the way to the Okanagan for Christmas vacation!

Eating cookies and playing board games with James while Jordie naps and Daddy 

is grocery shopping. 

Snuggles with Uncle Jack while watching the Dawn of the Planet of the Apes movie

Swimming at the awesome Penticton Community Pool. I only got to go this one time but Jim took James two more times during our week there.

Jordie causing trouble in the sport store while Nana tried to buy some new shoes

Kisses for Nana!

ER visit #1 for Jordan, the night before we left on vacation.

At least they gave him a popsicle to attempt to keep him occupied while we waited!

The next morning and we were off on vacation. Jordie climbing the huge set of stairs with Nana

Getting out to stretch our legs at Manning Park

We made it, and Jordie is wondering who all the crazy people are that are around him

First morning tablet playing snuggles with Uncle Ronnie

Cute swimming boy

This is how he hugs people these days....he loves to pat you on the head and then hug your head and give it a kiss, or just rest his head on yours. It is really just the cutest thing ever!

Double J Photos – Week 50 – Dec 7 – 13

It was a very quiet week picture wise around here with me working full days and the boys home with Daddy for what James not so lovingly told me "I'm tired of all of these 3 boy daddy days!" 

Me and my oldest cutie

A great smile for his show and tell picture

 Santa parade

I asked him to smile and he actually did it! That almost never happens with Jordan

This is how he sleeps most of the time now, arms up above his head

I need to do a split screen of him from last year with a picture very similar to this one!

At the health unit with Mommy and Daddy for his speech pathologist appointment

This kid just cracks me up

This little stinker started waking up at night and wouldn't go back to sleep until after he wandered around our house and found his Daddy for a little snuggle. This night was too cute to not capture a photo of.

Double J Photos – Week 49 – Nov 30 – Dec 6

Super blurry but adorable and funny photo of Jordan to start off the week.

Jordan playing with the recycled plastic pig toy that we brought back for him from Mexico

Visiting Mommy at work

Was so tired at lunchtime that he fell asleep in his highchair and stayed asleep while Jim got him dressed for the day. He slept like this for 20 minutes until we had to pick him up to put him in the van to take James to school.

Loves to play with any hockey sticks he can get his hands on

Such a cute picture....I wonder when he will finally get all 4 of his missing eye teeth in?!

This was actually the first picture taken in the week, but oh well. This was taken on the day we were coming back from Mexico (the 30th). This is how Nana and Papa let Jordie eat his breakfast that day!

Now onto the pictures of James for the week. First one is him with the painted Lightning McQueen car that he brought back from Mexico for Jordan.

A natural looking smile/giggle is rare these days from this kid

Another awesome preschool art project

A sleepover that James had with Nana and Papa. He was so tired that day after a long walk with Daddy that he ended up falling asleep in her arms while watching Frozen.

Seriously...so cute!

And the next morning he was put to work making nuts and bolts

The only picture I have of them together for the week. This was when they walked to my work to bring me some milk for a cup of tea. I am so lucky to have all 3 of them!

Preschool Art – Year 2 – December

I love December art work probably the best of the whole year. 

How awesome is this hand print tree?

And hand print reindeer puppet

Some Christmas (and a random dinosaur) colouring pages 

The Santa hat name plate. I love that they do one name thing each month to show how much his lettering has changed from last year to this year.

One last coloring page. You can tell he's not a big colorer as he clearly just scribbles a little bit on the page and is never really interested in coloring here at home...unless Jordan has the crayons out, 

then he of course wants to color :)
