Exhausted

I am exhausted! Christmas this year has turned into one big whirlwind...and there's still about a week to go. I know it's become quite the tradition, but I really hate how consumerist Christmas has become. It makes it difficult to focus on the real reason of Christmas with massive to-do lists and shopping carts swamped with gifts to buy. Not to mention the stress of trying to hit up everyone's house for some sort of Christmas celebration!! Or maybe it's the pregnancy hormones, lol...

Maybe I'm feeling more grinch-like this year since we are entirely undecorated this year. Okay, not entirely, we do have a tree...but that about sums it up. There's a bow on the top, and a few ornaments the kids made, but no lights and no tree skirt and no nativity scene this year. I know it's just a season of life, but I miss being able to decorate without having it all torn down and destroyed the day after! Maybe next year?! I'll keep my hopes up!
