Eek!

How awesome is Christmas?

How much MORE awesome is Christmas when you have kids?

The answer it AT LEAST ten fold. AT LEAST.

Christmas really rocks when you have kids.

We’ve decorated the outside of the house with a lot of lights, we’ve put the tree up, we’ve done Christmas crafts, and this afternoon when Wesley wakes up from his nap, we’re decorating the Gingerbread Train I’ve put together 🙂

I also love giving gifts. I love taking the time to pick a really, really cool gift for someone – something they WANT, not NEED. Something they didn’t even realise they wanted, but as soon as they open it, they LOVE it.

(This is easier for my family then Tommy’s. He struggles, so he passes the task over to me, but I feel like I don’t know them well enough to achieve the above mentioned feat!)

I mailed out my OD Secret Santa today. I sent it Parcel Post, so it probably won’t arrive to them until Thursday or Friday, but thats well within the limit. I actually think I bought the BEST Secret Santa present – esp. considering I don’t know my person at all.

Finally – sorry I’m terrible about updating in here. My new year’s resolutions are two things – 1) Buy Wesley 52 new books next year – not including Birthday/Christmas gifts. (Yes, meaning 1 per week!) and 2) Write in my blog at least once a week.

Lets hope I can keep it up!
