Merry Christmas

Posted December 22nd, 2009 by Leigh

I can’t believe that in a few days time we’ll be celebrating Christmas. I love Christmas!

This year we are spending Christmas eve with my parents and staying over to celebrate Christmas morning. We only open our gifts in the morning as Santa only delivers to our house at midnight when we are all asleep:)

It is our first Christmas with Abigail and Logan and we are really looking forward to it. Joshua is also very excited, I sent his wish list to Santa via e-mail and he is praying that he gets all the gifts he listed. This year his list was not that long so we’re hoping he gets what he asked for:)

We are all going to my sister – in – law for Christmas lunch and although I’m looking forward to quality time with the family, I’m not looking forward to everyone wanting to pick Logan up. Barend and I have decided that if anyone wants to hold her it will be for five minutes only and only while she is awake. The only time I really battle with her is after she’s been held for quite some time, she becomes very restless at night and I’m sure it is because her little body gets sore.

On boxing day we are heading off to the dam to spend some time with Ali and her family. I’m really looking forward to it. Joshua will get to spend time with his two best friends, they will swim, ride on the quad bikes, slip and slide etc. It’s a perfect place for children to run around and have loads of fun.

On the 30th Joshua will be jet setting to Durban to spend two weeks with his father, I am not looking forward to this. Two weeks is a very, very long time for me to be away from him. BUT I know that he needs to go and I know he will have a lot of fun. I will miss him very, very much.

I’m not sure when I’m going to get time to post again as I’m off to my mom for a few days, she is going to help me with the children and allow me some time to catch up on sleep and rest. So I want to wish all my “blog readers” a Merry, Merry Christmas – may you and your loved ones have a wonderful and blessed day.

Until my next post ………………have a fabulous time!!!!
