Christmas Christmas time is near.... time for joy and time for cheer! ONLY THREE DAYS LEFT (technically, as I'm typing this, there's only a few hours until the big day arrives....)
Only 3 days until Christmas – it’s Mommy’s favorite night; grab some popcorn, put on pjs and under the tree we’ll sleep tonight!
This really is one of my absolute favorite nights of the season and honestly, I'm not sure how many more we have left. The kids are literally outgrowing the pallet on the floor all shoved together so I will cherish it as long as we can make it happen.
And don't be fooled by these angelic faces...
Radley's pjs were three sizes too small... but I still required coordinated pjs and big smiles in front of the tree while we try to master the self-timer as I say joy-filled things like, "can you just be normal?"... Seriously. Just. Sit. Still. And. Smile." and ... "We will sit here as long as it takes..."
This is me. Pretending to be a soft spoken mom-type that smiles all the time.
But by 10pm when we've all fallen asleep next to a movie we have memorized, I look up and just cry. Absolutely nothing sweeter!
Only 2 days until Christmas – What’s something fun YOU want to do?? Kid’s choice!!
Y'all. This was THE MOST FUN. The kids have discovered "Minute to Win It" on Netflix so they organized a mini-competition between me and Gigi vs Ryan and Pops. Chaos ensued. Laughter was heard. Fun was had by all! You really just have to watch...
Only 1 day until Christmas – Get dressed so we can get cooking! SANTA COMES TOMORROW!
It's not Christmas until the meatballs are made...
and it's a family tradition we are sure to keep alive for many years to come!
Merry Christmas everyone!
