I can officially say that my holiday season has begun! Friday I took off work to go shopping with the Schreck women and boy can they shop! I can now say that I've been inside a Walmart for 5 hours! :-) BUT, I got the kids Christmas Day and Christmas Eve outfits, some odds and ends Christmas needs AND some of my shopping done. So, it was a fun day!
Yesterday I went shopping again with my wonderful friends from work on Main Street in St Charles. That was a lot of fun as well. Didn't really get much Christmas shopping done, but it's always great to get out with friends and have a sitter at home!
We're starting to teach the kids Christmas words and Nora's got "gobble gobble" down pat pretty good. All three of them are starting to talk a lot more and saying each other's names. We've all got the cold AGAIN. All three are coughing and runny noses. Although they aren't as bad today as they were yesterday morning so hopefully it's on its way out of the house.
I'm starting to get pretty excited about the holidays. Even though they don't quite fully understand what's going on, it's more than they understood last year. I have a feeling it won't take them long to figure out how to open their presents. :-)
