well, we had a really nice day. my parents and I were up before 6, however, the kids werren't up til about 7, and then Jake was more impressed that I had the xmas tree lights working than the presents. I showed him the table and said that mummy and daddy had made it especially r him and he takes one look and says "no thank you mama". How bloody rude! I consol myslef that it looks boring as just a table. Opened his presents and was super super excited about Buzz (which now is permanently attached to his hip, and his wiggles t-shirt (which is going to be so much fun to wash - not) Taine has taken up residence ON the table playing with his trains.
Today we are off to the sales to buy a barbeque and some clothes
Did you post a photo of the finished table? Sounds like a good day tho.
My day was pretty average - I was up spewing all night on christmas eve, so spent all yesterday feeling sorry for myself, dead tired, getting everyones lunch and dinner ready/dishes etc, and then not eating anything myself If I wasnt feeling so horrid it would have been a great day - Hannah had a blast and got very spoilt by everyone else,so that is the main thing.
We had our little Christmas at home after breakfast, then a bit of resting and organising time before going to Mum and Dads' for lunch and the rest of the day. Family dynamics can be a bit tense at times but yesterday went very well!
Well to my suprise we had a good thiem we decided ti do chrsitmas the night before as BIL and SIL and FIL came for tea so we did it all that night and saved the boy's one pressy for christmas morning we were going to go to church but the weather was yuck so we stayed home and relaxed FIL came for lunch during hte day I was still in my pj's had a nice lunch then more doing nothing then we went ot the boy's Nana's house and hung out there so all in all it was a much better day then I thought it was going to be.
Andrew was super excited but we had to make him wait nearly 1/2 an hour at the inlaws place so SIL could be there to open presents with us, but we gave in and let Andrew start opening them.
But we had a really enjoyable day as BIL was not there. We ate dinner and then put the boys to bed (well Andrew in his room at the inlaws with a DVD) and we sat round the table drinking wine and playing cards.
I was a puree feeder, forward facing, cot sleeping, pram pushing kind of Mum... and my kids survived!
