3cuties4me Posted December 17, 2006 Share Posted December 17, 2006 I finally only have about 20 presents or so to wrap for my kids. I think I'll finish them up this evening while watching the NFL game with my dh :) And then tomorrow I'll start on my baking!! Tuesday we are taking the kids to see Santa and OMGOSH I never printed their letters from Santa! EEK! I have to get that done too! I am hoping they will "arrive in the mail" on Wednesday (the day after seeing Santa)! And then Thursday night we will all go out and look at lights again. I am so excited!!!! I can't believe Christmas is only a week from tomorrow :) YAY! ~ Erin (23y/o SAHM to 3 cuties ages 3 and under) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Melissa Posted December 17, 2006 Share Posted December 17, 2006 This week I'll do a little baking. Everything else is ready to go! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
laffnatu Posted December 17, 2006 Share Posted December 17, 2006 I'm off work until Jan. 2, so I think I'll do some baking this week. My sis is coming in from WI on the 22nd. I still need to pick up a few more gifts, I may do that today. I'm caught up on wrapping but I'm waiting on 4 shipments from Amazon that I'll need to wrap. Oh, I'm having a early bd party for my son on Friday so a few friends can go to Chuck E. Cheese and go see Night At the Museum with him before the holidays get started.

pampam Posted December 17, 2006 Share Posted December 17, 2006 Amazon's cut-off for free Super Saver shipping for delivery before Christmas is at midnight tonight. I've been going over my gift list to be absolutely sure I haven't forgotten anyone or anything. Otherwise all the gift shopping that's left to do is a couple of flowering plants, bags of chocolates for gift bags and a bottle of wine. I'll get all of that at the grocery store tomorrow and buy enough groceries to last until after Christmas, plus ingredients for the recipes I'm making for two dinner parties. Nothing is wrapped but I only buy for three friends and their pets so it should take an hour or less. My second tree is almost finished and it's the last of the not-optional decorating. That's it. By this time tomorrow I'll be all done and can relax for a week. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alimfp Posted December 17, 2006 Share Posted December 17, 2006 Shopping, wrapping, cooking, putting the tree up, etc.. everything! I am not even close to done. I am just ready for the holidays to be over. LOL. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ashley1013 Posted December 18, 2006 Share Posted December 18, 2006 I have to get my girls Christmas pictures done . I really waited until the last minute for that, but we have the appt for tom so it will get done. I have to buy the rest of the stocking stuffers. Then on the 24th I will do ALL the wrapping of the gifts, and that will be because my dh believes that there shouldn't be any presents under the tree until Christmas morning. So when the kids wake they can see that Santa was there and blah balh blah. lol. Which I would have no problem with but he usually falls asleep in the middle of wrapping so I get stuck doing it by myself . So yeah I have quite a few things left to do this week.

CrayZMama80 Posted December 18, 2006 Share Posted December 18, 2006 All our gifts are wrapped.. soon as they came in the door..wrapping paper went on them. My main thing if I ever stop procrastinating, is getting to the grocery store to get the stuff for dinner.. as well as all of my baking. Ughh.. I swear I'm gonna be up all next weekend doing everything, then fall asleep during all the fun! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
racerfan Posted December 18, 2006 Share Posted December 18, 2006 We just had my DS birthday party on Saturday (he turns 11 on 12/21) Now I get started on wrapping all the presents. DH is decorating the tree as I type this. We are behind this year because we are temporarily renting while our house is being built. It will be ready for May. We sold our house of 12 years and now we are living temporarily out of boxes in a rental house for a year. I don't want to unpack too much, because I will just have to repack everything all over again. We have not even done any decorations ourside this year, usually we are one of the brightest houses on the block. Well I will be very prepared for next year. I am going to start in September.
