What do you have left to do?

[rebeccalouise]

absolutely nothing! all of our presents are wrapped, and ready to go. this is the first year I've been so organised! had most presents brought by the end of November

we're going out for dinner this year, so I have no last minute rush food/drink to buy either!

however, I suppose the fact we're moving house on the 4th January, makes up for the relaxing Christmas!

I'm so behind its unreal !
Took OH to airport at 3am this morning and then went to the 24hour asda to do my big food shop and pick up last minute presents.
I need to wrap 90% of the presents
Write the cards
Tidy the house which currently looks like a bombs hit it !
Deliver presents as working 12 hour shifts on Monday and Tuesday.
Pick up OH from airport at 10:30 pm Tuesday night.
Make Yorkshire puddings and broccoli & cauliflower cheese for our contribution to Christmas dinner - all whilst looking after my almost 3 year old twins who are toilet training !!!

There's nothing quite like peer pressure: I read this thread earlier and it was absolutely brilliant for givinge a much needed kick up the bum! I pulled all of the girls' pressies out of their various hiding places from around the house and have wrapped the lot! Super chuffed with myself as I'm usually one for leaving it til Christmas Eve and then get annoyed because I just want to sit and chill out. Mind you, morning sickness is not a busy mum who is trying to prepare for Christmas' friend!!
