Waiting for the boyo to fall asleep so we can fill the living room with presents. (We have a small house with a pretty open floor plan, and his room looks right out onto the living room and Christmas tree.)
It was a nice Christmas Eve, with Mom and Grandma, and then Jason and David coming down to hang and have dinner. I have seen way too many Rankin Bass Xmas specials today, though. Although I awoke to my son and husband watching Doctor Who ("It's the Doctor you like, Mom!" Z called to me as I got up), so that was pretty sweet.
My house is stuffed with cookies, lunch meat, homemade bread, and pecan bars. It rained, so our annual "Welcome Santa" chalk signs washed away. Z's "magic key," which he made in pre-K, is hanging on the door so Santa can get inside without, I dunno, kicking the door down or whatever. The cookies and milk are on the table, along with a note--okay, apparently when Santa visited the pre-K, he said that Mrs. Claus told him he was getting a little fat, so the kids should only put out one cookie and half a glass of milk. We put out two cookies, but one is for Mrs. Claus.
And that is Christmas Eve in the Little Pink House. I hope you are having a nice Christmas Eve, or a happy other holiday, or just an especially nice night.
