Thread: RQOTD - Monday

What is still on your to-do list before Christmas?

I still have to shop for DH. And I still need to get something for my dad as well as my father-in-law.

I need to:

-Take the kids to visit Santa (we're going today!)
-Buy gifts for my neice, my cousins baby and my FIL.
-Finish making gifts for my BFF's twins.
-Wait for some packages to arrive and wrap those gifts.
-Go see Christmas lights (at the Zoo, the Botanic Gardens, and driving around)
-Get stocking stuffers for the kiddos and 'Santa paper' to wrap Santa's gifts.
-Bake, bake, bake!
-Parties, parties, parties!
-Make the kiddos some Christmas shirts (hopefully will do tonight)
-Help my Step Father make some Christmasy recipe cards.
-Make some garden stepping stones with the kiddos feet prints for my Mom and Dad.
-Add some more decorations to the Christmas Tree and around the house.
-Hopefully have my husband come home sometime before Christmas (I've seen him maybe eight times since Nov. His travel is getting out of control again. )

Thankfully, I'm FULL of Christmas cheer this week, so I'm ready to take it all on!

What don't I have to do! I am in panic mode! The kids' Santa gifts are taken care of, thankfully!

Decorate our tree that we finally put up last night.
Buy for FIL, BIL and nephews.
Wrap a few more presents.
Mail presents to DH's family since we will not be traveling this year.
Finish the yarn wreath for my MIL.

Maybe make some fudge or other yummies? We will see.

Visit Santa (Sunday)
Wrap a couple more gifts
maybe put some ornaments on our tree? Maybe not?
Figure out what we're bringing for food

I'm sure there's more.

Buy a few more gifts online
have a baby

Love it, Jenn! How exciting

I have a few more gifts to wrap, I want to do some holiday baking, finish making teacher gifts for the boys, and prepare for this coming weekends family get togethers (DH has multiple family gatherings that we space out throughout the month so that we are not travelling to multiple homes on Christmas day). We are hosting one of the parties at our place this weekend. Other than that, I hope to do some more holiday crafts/ activities with the boys. After this week, I will be off on break so I should be able to tackle my list with ease

Buy for DH, MIL and SIL and my sister.
Buy gift cards for my DSDs ( Its so much easier for teens!)
Finish my baking / neighbour boxes
Finish drywalling DJs room and paint
Tile the shower in the guest bath
Touch up the paint in the livingroom/dining room
Plan meals for 8 for 5 days. yikes.

Just stocking stuffers. And figure out Christmas weekend food. Which should be interesting with only 2 pans. lol.
