Twas the night before Christmas......



The boys are tucked into their beds fast asleep and probably dreaming delicious dreams about Santa and all things Christmas!

They are so excited about Christmas this year! Liam has been talking about it for weeks. Today they were playing and singing together (see the video below) - their song went like this -
"Christmas Time, Christmas Time, Open presents from Santa and Mummy and Daddy, Christmas Time, Christmas Time"

They were singing it over and over again at the top of their voices! I couldn't help but smile, thinking of how great it was to have so much excitement and joy in the house - you just don't feel it on such a grand scale when you don't have little children in your life. Not sure if the neighbours appreciated it though!!!

We've had a busy couple of days but it has been great. We got to catch up with Aunty Nadia and Uncle Anthony yesterday. The boys had a ball seeing them. We went to the fireworks with Anthony and his girlfriend Jess last night. The boys had been out most of the day yesterday, had no sleeps (despite their late night the night before) but were still full of energy at the fireworks - running around with their glow sticks, jumping on Jess, and wrestling with Anthony. It was great seeing them play together! Liam began Star Wars education for Jess while she was here too - he brought out his book about it and took Jess through the whole story. She's never seen Star Wars (neither has he but he knows all about it!!) so Liam felt it was his duty to introduce her to it!! Was so funny listening to him preaching to her. Ewan was just content to cuddle and smile and run around getting them to chase him - always the little charmer - he knows that a cute smile goes a long way!!

Well our Christmas presents are all wrapped, gingerbread, carrots and a drink have been left out for Santa, and the stockings are filled (Santa is very efficient this year!!) so I am off to bed - I think it will be an early start tomorrow morning!

Sleep tight and will have lots of news tomorrow evening I'm sure!
