Well, I'd be lying if I said it hasn't been a little stressful lately preparing for Christmas! I love this time of year, it's my favorite; however, having a newborn made it a little harder to get all the things done I needed to get done (not to mention the crazy weather)! Yet, in the end it all came together! We had Christmas dinner at our house yesterday with Jeff's family. Well, first of all Chistmas morning... There's nothing that compares to seeing your children's' faces on Christmas morning! The excitement, happiness, and smiles are just priceless! The boys loved their gifts! Austin couldn't believe they got a Wii! He played it so much yesterday that he is sore today! The day was spent opening and putting together toys. Then preparing for our company. We had a wonderful meal with the LaFave's and the kids tore through more presents! Today we will relax before we head to my mom's for another Christmas celebration!
Christmas Eve we baked cookies, wrapped more presents, and I even ventured to Wal-Mart for a few last minute things with all three kids (crazy)! Then we went to church and the boys sang wonderfully! I was able to sit down and just remember the real reason for the season for awhile that is! Chloe was ready to eat again as soon as all the music was over! Afterwards we went home, made dinner, boys took their baths and put on their p.j's, sat out cookies for Santa (this was one of the first things Austin checked when he woke up, if santa ate the cookies they made), tracked Santa on the internet and we tucked them in with a prayer and they were out! Jeff and I on the other hand were up until almost one finishing wrapping!
