but instead I'll reminisce about Christmas ... bloggy style.
The kids are at the perfect age for Christmas. I love it! They were totally psyched. They all visited Santa and even Frankie sat on his lap and told him she wanted a ladybug pillow pet.
Christmas Eve I spent unpacking from our trip and cleaning and Greg and I were exhausted after driving all night. Tre and Joey were eager to go to sleep so that Santa could come but Frankie was up till 10 so we didn't get finished wrapping presents until about midnight. The kids woke up some time after 7 and Joey was hollering in the livingroom for Tre to come look. It's a good thing I got up when I did cause Joey had already opened half of her presents and made it known that she did not get a Barbie doll house from Santa (I warned her not to expect one since we already had another doll house). Her favorite gifts were probably the jewelerybox and the dress up clothes/princess costumes (despite the fact that she asked Santa for Barbies- she doesn't play with them all that much). She also likes her unicorn pillowpet from Santa.
Tre is enjoying his nerfgun and still wears his bathrobe frequently. It's actually quite fun to have nerf gun fights with him. I wish I could do it more often. Frankie likes her pillow pet and playfood a lot as well. She pretty much just plays with whatever Joey is though.
We had a great time with family Christmas morning and then visited more family that evening. It was a great holiday!
edited to add that I wrote this a while ago and just now published it. I am proud to say that all Christmas decorations are put away in the attic!
