So, it is December 22nd. Not much time left to fiish the holiday preparations and shopping! For those celebrating Christmas, how far along are you to being finished shopping? I have a few last things I need to pick up today, then I will be done. Lol...I should be doing that right now as a matter of fact!

I am pretty much done shopping now! I have all the presents wrapped and under the tree. My three year old counts them every morning but it sure is teaching him patience not being able to open them yet :) I have a couple last minutes stocking stuffers to run out and grab but it will only take me a few minutes and then, I am done. My husband waits until the last minute so he will be shopping on Thursday I am sure. I just loved wrapping all the presents this year. Having two little kids makes the spirit come back to me!!!

Awwww.I miss having the little ones around! My stepson is 19 now, but I remember trying to get him back to bed and asleep so we could bring things downstairs,lol! He always tried to 'catch' Santa!

The little ones have given me a new love for Christmas. It is so amazing to see the reactions to all the presents and lights and trees and food. The three year old is all about Santa and it makes me remember when I was like him. I can't wait until Christmas morning so he can see all the things from Santa. It is going to be delightful!

Thankfully I am done shopping! I wrapped up the last of my Christmas shopping last weekend - placed my last order online December 13th. Everything was delivered by December 17th. It's a nice feeling to be done shopping. I just need to get busy wrapping! LOL
