It will be nice to have my dad cook and the hubs and I are coming early to drop the kiddo off and we're sneaking off to a movie! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-are-you-doing-for-christmas#post-33937 Wed, 14 Dec 2011 13:23:50 +0000 heffalump 33937@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'll be driving home from visiting family all day, and eating Chinese for dinner. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-are-you-doing-for-christmas#post-33915 Wed, 14 Dec 2011 13:16:59 +0000 autumnlove 33915@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We aren't sure if LO will be here by Christmas. If she doesn't arrive by her EDD of 12/20...the Dr wants to induce me a few days after Christmas. We will probably just hang out with DH's family nearby and relax. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-are-you-doing-for-christmas#post-33892 Wed, 14 Dec 2011 13:09:23 +0000 MegWag 33892@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We'll be holed up at home by ourselves, but I'm sure we'll skype with my family in the States so we can share some Christmas cheer :)<br /> We'll probably sleep late, then have breakfast (I'm still deciding what to make), and then open presents. We've been getting boxes in the mail from my family to make sure we feel loved across the miles. There are even presents for the baby, even though he won't be born until early March!<br /> Other than that I'm not sure. I did make a special request that DH actually take the whole day off and not do any work. He owns his own business so that NEVER happens! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-are-you-doing-for-christmas#post-33853 Wed, 14 Dec 2011 12:46:10 +0000 mediagirl 33853@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@lovelife: Oh my gosh! That is so much traveling with your LO! I'm not sure I would be that brave. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-are-you-doing-for-christmas#post-33839 Wed, 14 Dec 2011 12:38:21 +0000 Boogs 33839@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Christmas Eve morning we will open our gifts to each other (just the 3 of us). Then, we will stay in our jammies abs go hang out with my family for the day. My DH works Christmas day, so we may just go visit him at work. On the 26th we will go spend the day with the inlaws. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-are-you-doing-for-christmas#post-33833 Wed, 14 Dec 2011 12:33:00 +0000 polkadots 33833@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@mediagirl: I wish we had your plans for christmas! </p> <p>This weekend- Christmas with ,my stepmoms family- 5 hours away</p> <p>christmas eve- christmas with my moms side- same town<br /> Christmas morning- christmas with mom/siblings- at home<br /> Christmas afternoon- christmas with DH dads side- 45 min. away<br /> Chirstmas day night- Christmas with my dad and siblings<br /> Day after christmas day-Christmas with DH mom and siblings 1.5 hours away...</p> <p>All with a 12 week old....

We might go to his moms for the 23-24th and then come home so we can spend our first Christmas in our new home actually at home. I think we will go to his Aunt's house for dinner than night because his grandmother will be in town. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-are-you-doing-for-christmas#post-33751 Wed, 14 Dec 2011 11:59:06 +0000 chopsuey 33751@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I think we're gonna stay home all day?

We'll go over their house Christmas Eve and watch <i>It's A Wonderful Life</i>. Christmas morning we'll have croissants and then open presents. Then a big Christmas dinner around 1:00 and hanging out or playing games for the rest of the day.</p> <p>Then we're seeing my MIL on the Tuesday and Wednesday following Christmas, and my FIL the weekend after New Year's (I think). </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-are-you-doing-for-christmas#post-33718 Wed, 14 Dec 2011 11:36:45 +0000 mediagirl 33718@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We celebrated Christmas with my parents last weekend and we won't be seeing his folks, so we're on our own for Christmas this year! On Christmas Eve, my husband and I will go to church and then drive around and look at Christmas lights. Christmas morning, I will have a casserole of some sort ready for breakfast and we'll have tasty snacks throughout the day. We are going to open presents and then watch movies all day long, snuggled under a blanket with our dogs. </p> <p>What are your plans for Christmas? </p>
