Played Santa and delivered presents. Wong's and Phan's. Hung out at the Phan's for a couple of hours. Tyler played with Andrew and Ethan and Emily showed off and was a good girl.

Mon, Dec 20
Damn Babies R Us doesn't open until 9:30! Where are the holiday hours!! Hahaha, ended up at the mall and got to return things from the Disney store that we ended up not needing as gifts and go to Target for some odds and ends.

Tues, Dec 21

Went to Carter's to return stuff. Passed out Xmas cards to T's classmates in the morning with hopes to give to his teachers in the afternoon. However, most of them were gone by the time mommy picked up Tyler @ 5:30pm, so I guess they will get it next year. It was his last day of school for the year and mommy will have both the kids for the next 2 days all by herself.

We had dinner with Murakami's and Yee's at Sonoma Chicken Copp. Just mommy by herself because daddy had to work late. It went fairly well. Luckily Emily did her crying and screaming while driving to get Tyler and then on the way to the restaurant. Mommy then fed her in the car and then she slept through the entire dinner and mommy was able to eat in peace. :)

Tyler requested to go to Michael's today. Not sure why, he didn't pick out anything. While we were out we also went to Babies R Us to do a return and to pick up more vitamins for Emily.

After nursing Emily and eating McDonalds with Tyler. There was a good 1 hour time frame where mommy had both kids sleeping! WOOHOO!

Thurs, Dec 23

Stayed home and tried to preparing house for Xmas Eve Dinner.
Both kids napped at the same time again! Mommy got in on the action and took a short nap as well. Evan and Owen came by for a short visit. Daddy hoped to come home early, but guess work is busy ... or just plain mean.

Friday, Dec 24

Spent most of the morning finishing up cleaning the house. More so daddy then mommy. Although cleaning might have been the easier of the 2 things to do. It was that or watch both the kids. Pick your poison, hehe.

We hosted the Christmas Eve dinner at our house. The Murakami's (with Cindi's parents) prepared prime rib, baked potatoes, and tofu salad. We had king crab legs, rice, and macaroni/potato salad. Dessert was a very rich and yummy strawberry cheesecake and pecan pie.

Man, time sure flies! Can't believe tomorrow is already Christmas!
