    Default Merry Christmas

    Merry Christmas to all of you who celebrate this holiday and Happy Holidays for those of you who do not.

    I just finished putting the presents under the tree and consuming the cookies and milk left out by my kids for "Santa." As usual, I left just a little on the plate and in the glass to make it clear that "he" ate while here, which always seems to make them more excited. This holiday always makes me feel a little festive, even if I end up a bit sleep deprived the next morning when they wake us up to show us what Santa left them. The one oddly poignant moment tonight was when the kids said goodbye to the Elf on the Shelf as they headed to bed, since of course the elf is going back to the North Pole tonight with Santa.

    I hope some of you are able to make more good Christmas memories as well, even as we all deal with the normal trials and tribulations that life throws at us.

    Merry Christmas to you all. I had to do pretty much the same thing with my kid. Of course she made it more difficult by sleeping in my bed and falling asleep halfway on me. It took a half hour just to get her off of me and to make sure she hadn't woken up in the process. I swear us moms and dads have to have ninja-like skills to pull off quietly putting presents under the tree and eating the cookies all without the kid waking up.I had a flashlight, tiptoing around because I was so paranoid that if I turned lights on it would wake her up.

    Its been a long day around here. We started the festivities last night. Went to midnight mass and came home and watched movies throughout the night. Then made a massive breakfast feast. Visited a few people. It was nice and Id like to make it our holiday tradition. MERRY CHRISTMAS EVERYONE!

    Merry Christmas Everyone!

    I hope that tonight will go the same way it did last Christmas Eve when I started this thread. My kids are already talking about how much they're going to miss the elf, lol. Anyway, wishing everyone a very merry Christmas.

    Welp! I guess we have started a tradition. Because so far we're already set to repeat last year's activities. Mass at midnight and ham and eggs for Christmas morning. I plan on resting and being a lazy bum all day in preparation for the after Christmas sales.

    Merry Christmas To All And May Peace Be Your Guide Heading Into The New Year.

    My family is doing a Christmas pajama party again this year. Christmas is really special when little kids are around. My 2 year old niece is the center of attention and it's fun just watching her have fun.

    Merry Christmas to everyone here on the forum and to your families too!

    Merry Christmas to you, too! I'm trying to get my kid to sleep and the stinker is refusing. I need my kid to go to sleep so that I can go into ninja mode and sneak presents out and put them under the tree. I'm exhausted as all heck. Maybe I'll have to read bible or something boring to kids to her because reading Christmas and Santa stories seemed to only get her more psyched up about Santa coming. She said she wants to stay up to hear him outside. I told her he's going to not come to out home if we're still awake.

    Another year and another Merry Christmas to all of you who celebrate this holiday and Happy Holidays for those of you who do not.

    We did everything this year that I posted in the opening post two years ago, including the elf, the cookies for Santa and, of course, the presents under the tree. We also kicked off Christmas Eve by attending a wonderful kids choir presentation. I'm still feeling festive as I sit here typing and trying to wash the syrupy sweetness off my tongue from the cookie that "Santa" had to eat this year. I tried to nudge them towards a chocolate chip cookie, but they insisted on the over-iced sugar cookies that they decorated themselves.

    My oldest is getting up there and has gotten wise to the whole Santa thing, but she's been sweet enough not to ruin it for the younger ones. I don't know how much more time I've got before they're all savvy to it, but I intend to squeeze out every moment that I can.

    Once again I hope some of you are able to make more good Christmas memories as well, even as we all deal with the normal trials and tribulations that life throws at us.
