TMH Awwww you are most welcome, and the same sentiments from me too xxxx

Well, DS woke at 3.30amish to find his stocking full...but I managed to get him back to sleep!
DD1 then woke at 4.35
All then very quickly woke and devoured their stockings.

All downstairs, and pressies are all just about unwrapped now. DD1 has gone back to bed!!! She said she had tummy ache

Bianca a big thankyou to you, the pillowcases are fantastic, you are very clever, and what a lovely idea! The calendar is already on the computer table thankyou from us all xxxx

Well hopefully you have all had a later start than us, enjoy your day everyone and hope you all have fun!

xxxxx

Just a quick peek back on, DD1 is still in bed, DH has also gone back to bed, and DS and DD2 are watching tv and playing with various toys and things

I've emptied the D/W and tidied up the mountain of wrapping paper! Fed the birds, listened to my xmas pressie (bianca...I got Mika's Album!! ) I have a Baileys with Ice on the go (bit early I know) Will start to think about dinner in a bit, but really need to clear some floor space!

Good morning and Merry Christmas

Well, my dcs slept in till 8am Dh and I had been half awake for a couple of hours wondering when they'd wake up!
Within about 30 minutes everything was opened, wrapping paper has replaced the carpet and the nice tidy house is full of toys
We're now attempting to get up and dressed (my dad and wife are due for breakfast soon) but dd and ds are too busy comparing presents to be bothered to get dressed just yet!
Dd declared "how embarrasing" when she opened some knickers that Santa had brought - made me

TMH your post last night summed up how I feel about these threads too - well said x x x Have a great day today x
Luda thanks for your presents too - dd and ds are delighted with their things and I've put the choc away for dh and I to scoff later
Jas Have a great day

FrostyGlassSlipper · 25/12/2007 11:53

Morning all. Merry Christmas. Dd2 sleeping as not well with cough. DD1 VERY excited.

Have a good day everyone!

yaddayule · 25/12/2007 17:48

hic!

ATortIsForLifeNotJustChristmas · 25/12/2007 17:53

MERRY CHRISTMAS.

DD1 woke at about 6.20. She then woke everyone else at 6.30 after excitedly showing me her full stocking!
They all open a few presents in bed before coming downstairs!

We managed to make present opening last a few hours by opening on each one at a time! All are very happy with their presents. Especially the boys with their wii.

Bianca Thanks for our pressies.

Dinner went very well. And tasted great. I was the only one to eat all mine though! Just as i expected really!

DS's went ith their dad at 3pm. I felt really sad after they had gone but tried to play with DD's for a bit.

They are now having a bath.

Will find them a sandwich or something for tea in a mo. Dinner was quite at about 2 so they won't be that hungry with the chocs they have eaten on top of dinner and pud!

I will be back later after they are in bed.

Hope everyone has had a fab day.

Hope you all had a great Christmas day.

My boys did me proud - they woke at 7.30 and we all got dressed and had breakfast beore they opened some of their pressies, then went to MIL's and they opened more and have lunch.

They managed with their 5 year old spolit single child cousin and then we went to Great Grans. They had a bath at MIL's then home an to bed. No naps, no tantrums, just two very happy, very gracious and adorable babies. They behaved impecably

I was spoilt by DH, a bracelet with their fingureprints on - it made me cry
