You would all be very proud of me. Procrastinator Cunningham, as I sometimes call myself, is actually more prepared than EVER for the holidays. I have a couple more items for the girls to buy and a card to make to put some cash in for my brother and cousin. Other than that. I am DONE shopping, wrapping, and decorating. I even have all of the December birthday gifts bought and wrapped except one. I do still need to buy birthday cards.
I am actually so amazed and relieved that I may actually have the possibility to enjoy the holiday rather than rush through them this year. Amazing!!! The girls and I even kept up our charitable tradition today. We filled 3 garbage bags with shoes and toys that they don't use anymore and took them to Goodwill in Ankeny. We also dropped a new unwrapped toy off at the Toys for Tots box at Toys R Us. They felt very good to be helping others and as a bonus made room for the toys they hope Santa is bringing them this year.
Some nights I think it is all a distraction from the mounds of laundry, dusting, and bathroom cleaning, but those will always be there no matter what.
Here are a couple of pictures of the girls with Santa today. Eliza wants puppy in my pocket, jungle in my pocket, and a Dora Mermaid. Skylar was too shy to tell him anything. She just kept giggling. : )

OMG, those pictures of the girls and Santa are truly priceless. Way to go on all your holiday preps, done. Sit back and enjoy. You more than deserve it after this Fall.
You GO GIRL! You know I'M proud of you for getting so much done. I'm also sitting pretty darn good myself and I've actually scheduled some fun things to do with my family instead of chores to be done or errands to be ran, or something to be prepared, wrapped or bought. Going to Trans-Siberian Orchestra this weekend with Fred and Connor, should be a lot of fun!
Your Santa pictures are too cute. Enjoy that time as it goes by too quickly. I already miss not have those type of pictures of Connor anymore, or at least not willingly...lol
Your pictures of the girls with Santa are beyond cute!! Eliza, looks like she is carrying on quite the conversation with Santa! Pictures perfect for a scrapbook! Congratulations on you charitable donations, too!
Wow! You are doing great! Those girls of yours are just too darn cute!!
