Holidays (daze)

How do you all cope with holidays and kids? This is the first year my 3-year old daughter "gets it". She alternates between being excited and scared that a tubby guy in a beard is going to come into our house at night and leave gifts. Since we don't have a fireplace she is also asking how he is going to come in. My MIL said through the heating system (big mistake). So now every night Lindsey points to the heat vent in room and asks if Santa is going to come into her room while she is sleeping. That even seems scary to me! I also have a problem where I keep buying one more gift on Amazon for her - knowing my Mom bought her too much already. I want my kids to learn that this time is about being thankful & being with family - but I get easily caught up in the whole gift thing. It is hard not to overdo it - isn't it? Please share your holiday tips, plans, vent your frustrations etc. Oh & happy holidays! :)

Where's My Snow Day?

I don't know why Natick did not have a snow day today - or at least a delay. It was still snowing heavily when we left the house and there was already a few inches on the ground. It was quite an adventure getting Jenna off to daycare and I'm just happy we made it there in one piece!

Here's a little problem, too. Jenna refuses to wear her snow boots. I know the kids will head out to the playground and all the other kids wear their boots but Jenna just refuses. I'm not quite sure what to do about that!
