After a bit of a rough start, Connor ended up having a GREAT Christmas! We had bought the kids a PS3 for Christmas, along with a few new games for it. Darrin thought it would be funny if we had Connor open up his Santa gift first, which was the new Ratchet & Clank game for PS3 before he'd opened the actual PS3. His hope was that Connor was be a little bit crestfallen about it and just planned on saying "Oh man, we thought it was a PS2 game, we'll have to exchange it for something else". Then Connor would be wildly excited when he opened the PS3. I didn't think Connor would fall for it, but told him to do whatever he wanted. Well...neither one of us was ready for him to burst into tears, which is what happened. Poor kid. He totally thought he got the shaft. Of course we immediately threw the PS3 box at him to open and all happiness was restored. Can you say backfire? So I didn't get any pictures of that because I was so distressed about his distress. My mom probably has some...
He also got an awesome Padres warm-up jacket (which he's been dying for), a Padres flatbill hat (which he's been dying for), some new batting gloves, a bunch of awesome books, and quite a few video games! It was a nice haul. I think he's forgiven us for the "joke".
