Wintery mix outside right now. I'm honestly surprised that they didn't call a delay.

Something huge is happening at work and I'm anxious to see how things pan out.
It's only December and I'm getting sick of the cold and snow. We still have snow on the ground from the week of Thanksgiving. Usually it melts within a couple of days.
Zach was so damn cute this morning, it was hard to leave him. He looks like a little lumber jack in a flannel shirt, jeans, and boots. Santa is coming to daycare today. I hope they get good pictures of the boys.

It’s chilly here in Phoenix, but I know it’s much much warmer than most of the country.
The baby fell at daycare today, but her head pretty good. She’s been fine all day but now she’s having issues with sleep and I have no idea if it’s related. Toddlers and falling on their faces...so stressful.

Does anyone have any good ideas for their husbands for Christmas? He is the only one I have left. He isn't into sports or anything and I am stuck.

I am the worst gift-giver. Tell me what you want or I'm clueless and stressed. Tools? Wallet? Clothes/shoes? I'm not good at this game.

We buy our own gifts during Black Friday but I still like to give him something. I usually stick to T-shirt’s and what not. Or Batman things. That may not be helpful.

H is getting: A new clock radio with a wireless charging area Cross trainer shoes because the running shoes he has been wearing are no good for some of the HIIT workouts we've been doing $ towards a new hockey stick Random stuff for his stocking - candy, nice shaving cream, etc.

DH is getting an insulated cover for his Traeger grill, beard shampoo and conditioner, gourmet peanuts, a chocolate orange, and Poopourri.
I swear my children are trying to kill me this week. They are both being so difficult and not listening and I've had two calls from daycare because Zach keeps hurting himself. Yesterday he face planted and got a bloody nose. His nose is scraped and bruised today. He's also just been cranky.

My H and I both wanted the new AirPods so we bought those and considered it our Christmas gifts to each other. I put new boxers and cologne in his stocking and will probably add some other random stuff.
He is so hard to buy for. He is very specific about what he wants and typically, if he really wants something, he’ll buy it.

So I ordered a few things this morning...a smoker box for the grill, 2 kinds of smoker chips, undershirts, beef jerky and a variety pack of flavored pistachio.

We must be in the minority for gift giving. We really don't. At this point, I feel like the bank account is drained enough. But, our parents and my grandparents still do a lot of gifts for us, which we are very thankful for, so that's probably a lot of why we don't either.

I powered through and stayed up last night wrapping the girls gifts. Why do they put toddler toys in weird shaped / open front boxes?

How is she today klw? So many of my kids were sick, coughing, hoarse today. I got coughed on and kept yelling for them to cover their mouths. Hopefully, she'll be all better by Christmas.

I am so ready for a break from hustling everyone out the door in the mornings. I’m not going anywhere but I can 100% relate to the relief of not having to hustle everyone out the door. So happy for that break!

She woke up fine! She has done this a few times before. She will have a low grade fever and headache at night, goes to bed early then gets up all happy with no issues the next morning. I'm not sure if she is just really tired?

I am so ready for a break from hustling everyone out the door in the mornings. Yay! Me too. And I was thinking they we had off for 14 days, then someone pointed out it is 16. 😁 But I am ready for a break of the usual routine and just being able to relax. My favorite day is actually the 27th. We have a clean house, no where to go and lots of leftovers. And the girls have new toys to play with. 😉
