Merry Christmas Eve

Well, our Christmas Eve this year was a bit different then past years.  Typically we sit at home, watch a Christmas movie and fix a favorite dinner, and spend time together.  However, this year, Matt had his 24 hour duty again so we had to revamp.  I actually had to work for about 4 hours today then I picked Gracie up from school, came home, made cinnamon rolls for breakfast in the morning, and then went to Jack in the Box for quick dinner pick up for the three of us at Matt’s office.  It was actually kind off nice.  We watched “The Christmas Story” which is one of my favorites and then Gracie and I came home.

I had a list of things I wanted to accomplish before I went to bed so I immediately got started.  The biggest item was folding laundry and putting it away.  Gracie has been all about jumping…on the floor, beds, the couch, if it bounces, she wants to jump on it.  So I put her in her crib so I could have a steady surface to fold laundry.  I look over at her and this is what I found…

Yep, it’s official, we have to change her bed to a toddler bed.  We have been talking about doing it anyway, but now it’s time.  Just one more reminder that our little girl is getting so big.

Well, we are ready for our opening of gifts tomorrow.  The tree has been stocked and Santa has visited.  Have a very Merry Christmas to each and every one of you!
