Whew! It’s amazing I managed to post at all this month. It’s been crazy. But with the exception of a couple of packages that still need to be wrapped, we are ready for Christmas. We arranged and purchased the class gift for Liam’s teacher and her assistant. Tips and seasonal gifts for various people have been taken care of. All of the presents for family in other states have been sent out. Christmas lists to Santa have been pored over, carefully edited, and sent off. We even got to wave to the Jolly Elf himself as he rode down our street on a fire truck last weekend! We made 82 cookies for our MOMS Club cookie swap, swapped them, and are now enjoying a variety of cookies that are new to us. I made a batch of cut-out cookies tonight. Liam will help me frost and decorate them tomorrow. Also, tomorrow, we need to make a quick run to the grocery store for the few items that didn’t come home from my weekend grocery trip. (Invariably, I always forget two or three things at the store…even if they are on the list, and even if they are common everyday things like tissues. Argh!)
Now it’s time to sit back and enjoy the holiday. Bring on Christmas!
“Mommy? Mommy? OK, Santa’s a nice guy and he gave me a fun cowboy rubber ducky and all, but
can you tell the dude to put me down?!!”
Cookie swaps are the best! I love the variety you always get, maybe a little too much sometimes
Glad to hear you guys are pretty much ready, I think our house is, not that I have much choice anymore.
Wishing a very Merry Christmas to you all!
P.S. That picture is priceless!
What a sweet picture… I think your caption fits perfectly.
Have a wonderful holiday!! It will be so much fun with your little guys.
