I slept in until about 0830 today which was such a treat. I headed to Grandma's just before 0900 and had a yummy breakfast. We then got all of Grandma's decorations down from the attic and put her outside lights up and then got her tree up and decorated.
Then as part of the deal she came back to our house to help me and the three little ones decorate our tree. I put Grandma in charge of putting the lights on. That is definitely not my gift! We then began to decorate which was interesting with three half pints who want to put everything on their level. Needless to say, Mommy did a little rearranging as we went.
They were all so cute as they hung each ornament they kept saying that each one was their favorite as they hung it on the tree. We left Peanut's ornaments off for him to hang when he got home from school.
Once we finished decorating we loaded up and went to Harvest Time International to drop off bags of clothes and toys that we had collected in the garage over the last several months.
Then Grandma stayed with the little ones while Daddy and I went on a date and to get some Christmas shopping done. We had a nice dinner at Logan's and then hit Toys R Us to start our shopping. We left there with lots of goodies for the kiddies to put under the tree.
Our next stop was Wal-Mart where we put the finishing touches on the shopping. The only thing we didn't get was Missy's dollhouse which they were out of at Toys R Us. Hopefully we will be picking that up in the next few days.
Peanut got some stocking stuffers and then Daddy is going to pick him up some tools to start his own kit to keep in his car. His other gift is coming in the form of cash which is going towards his very expensive Senior trip!!
It was so nice to spend the evening with hubby and get the bulk of our Christmas shopping done before we even hit the month of December.
Grandma took the boys to her house once she got Missy to sleep and big brother Peanut stayed with our sleeping Princess. Tomorrow is going to be a big day for her as it is potty boot camp day. Her and I are going to be spending alot of time on the tile and in the bathroom. Hopefully things go smoothly and there won't be too many messes to clean up.
