December Daily - December 19th Words & Photos

Today was a special day for us, however it started out a bit of a disaster, with Aiden waking up quite sick and my sister, brother and law and baby N leaving us to head back to their home.  Aiden stayed home from daycare today and spent a lot of time sleeping during the day, however we had some special activities to take care of!  When we sent our letter to Santa we let him know that we would be visiting a different city for Christmas, and asked if he could bring our presents there instead.  But he let us know that he would be coming to visit early because he had a pretty big present for the kids, and we wouldn't be able to drive home with it.  So we spent the day prepping for his visit!
I wore a very elffy outfit, we cleaned up all the toys and got the living room ready for Santa.  After dinner Aiden and I decorated Christmas cookies to leave for Santa (Aiden sampled some too, and they received his full approval), left them out on his special cookie plate with some milk, and also left out some carrots for the reindeer.

After the kids headed off to bed Santa's elves got to work setting up gifts for the kids, and mom and
dad added theirs too!  So exciting!!
