My list of to do's before Christmas isn't huge but it is hard to figure out how I am going to get the stuff that needs to be done at the last minute done with three little ones running and/or crawling all over the place.
Well Chris is going to work from home on the 24th YAY and Jake will go spend the day with Grampie and Grandmaman (Chris' grandmother). If Jake stayed home he would distract Chris all day and Chris is anticipating a day spent on the phone. The girls will be able to play while Chris works and I can make soup for Christmas lunch, pack all the stuff for the next day at the inlaws and tidy up the house for the big party here on Boxing Day.
Packing shouldn't be too bad since we aren't spending the night or anything but it is still a lot of stuff to bring. Good thing we have a highchair there, a crib and playpen, toys (lots of new ones will be opened anyway), cup for Jake, blankets, bibs, etc. I still need to pack diapers for three, wipes, change of clothing and pjs to come home in, formula and baby food for the girls. Maybe a saucer for the girls to play in as they enjoy being standing. I also need to bring the soup I will be making and the stocking stuffers and remaining presents (most are already there due to the lack of tree here).
I am also hoping Canada Post comes by today with the rest of the stuff that I have ordered. They even had the nerve to send me a delivered email yesterday for some wool diaper covers I ordered for the girls but I didn't receive them. Delivered yeah right! I am also waiting on a tee shirt I ordered for Dom (MIL) and some free shirts I got through a cereal promotion that I was going to add to my dad's and Aidan's presents. GRRRR
On my to do list today was vacuuming which I did first thing so the girls could safely play on the floor. Ill get dishes done throughout the day and try to keep up with the ever growing pile of laundry. If the rest of my stuff arrives I will wrap it all up too. Fun day huh!! LOL
