Well you would have thought I would have slept in, nope I was up at 7:00ready to get up. It will hit me later. The kids are having a great time at grandma/pa’s. Although Nikki went to bed really late, so we will see how that goes. I got some things done this morning and relaxed, it was nice. We wrapped presents, lots of presents. I ran out to Target for a few things then we just waited for our kiddos to come home. I worked on my picture calendar for next year and finally finished. It was nice to have the kiddos home, I missed them a lot. I love getting the biggest hugs from them. Bret ran out and got a pizza for lunch for all of us. Grandma/pa stayed a bit longer so Bret and I could run to Toys R Us. We returned Nicole’s doll house as she is going to use my old one (kinda cool). Maybe one day her daughter will use it, who knows. So we got some people for it. Bret walked to the park with the kiddos while I finished up around here. I swear I am always shifting things around and cleaning and it still looks messy. We headed to Grammy’s to celebrate an early Christmas. The kids were so excited for the presents. They are at the age that clothes suck. They couldn’t wait for more and more presents, good thing Grammy got a lot. Nicole loved the boxes, santa nested boxes and Justin’s favorite was the red model car to put in his room. Mine was the money that I am going to put toward a camera bag. We had dinner, lots of food and deserts. Seriously I need to get back on a diet. We are overwhelmed with all the toys and our messy house right now. Nicole was in a great mood all night and helpful. The kids played Santa at Grammy’s. This entailed taking all the boxes and bags and pretending Justin was Santa and Nicole was an elf. They were putting all their stuff under the piano which was the tree. It was great. They chose to play rather than watch the Up movie. I was really surprised by that. The kiddos are sound asleep. Justin was my cuddle bug tonight and Nicole was so sweet when I was putting her to bed.
