Will I Ever Finish Christmas Shopping?

Probably not. We tried really hard on Saturday to finish up the few gifts we needed to get. We ate lunch and headed to our first stop where my body decided I didn't need to finish shopping and launched me into a stomach escapade for almost the next 24 hours.

Sunday afternoon we try again. We head to the mall to eat lunch and let Caleb get a picture with Santa, which did not go well. Caleb needed a nap and Lifeway is closed on Sunday (when will I ever remember that???), so we headed home to put Caleb down and I went out shopping by myself.

We finished most of the shopping last night, and now I have to wait for a package to come in the mail today so I can repackage stuff and mail a box of wrapped Christmas presents to hubby's mom's house in time for Christmas. It's a good thing I bought all of Caleb's presents earlier this year and they are patiently waiting in the top of his closet for me to wrap.

Maybe next year I'll get my act together?

Don't be so hard on yourself. Being a Mommy to a 15 month old (tomorrow right?) is a full time job in itself. I say if you are almost finished a week before Christmas you deserve a pat on the back!

If you have to go back out shopping stop and get something yummy at Starbucks, it's on me!

Hang in there!! I'm sure that you'll get through this next week in one piece and will be anxious to do it all over again in a year! Here's to hoping that your next shopping trip is a bit smoother!!

Well, I used my short lunch break today to run to the post office... and there was a package from you! I was excited to see that and anxious to open it... but then the dumb truck wouldn't start! So I got a ride back to work with friends, and the truck with your present locked inside is still sitting dead in front of the post office. (sigh)

I love you Jenn,
