i normally love the holidays and always look forward to and enjoy doing all the Christmas activities/crafts etc but this year i feel sooo behind with everything holiday-related.
i have not done any Christmas shopping, at all
i have not but a Christmas tree up, let alone hung ornaments
i have not put up our lights/decorations outside (we have them, haven't taken them out at all)
haven't taken our holiday pics (that i bought coordinating Hanna outfits specifically for, months ago!)
haven't taken DS to see Santa or get Santa pics or do ANY holiday-related activities
i'm just kinda annoyed bc for a while i had been really looking forward to the holidays this year, as it was our son's first Christmas and he is old enough to actually enjoy/participate in some holiday activities. but this past month has been so insanely hectic for us (crazy amt of traveling for thxgiving + DH travel) i feel like i have been constantly treading water just to keep the house running (grocery shopping, cooking meals, cleaning etc) and keep DS fed and everything. i feel so bad when i see everyone's cute FB pics or whatever of their kids with Santa or walk by and see all our neighbors' amazing xmas lights/ decorations etc and i haven't done jack squat here, and not sure if i'll ever get around to it, given how things are going.
i don't know, maybe i'm just in a rotten mood now bc i am still sick myself and just got 3 hrs sleep as a result of dealing with a sick congested baby alone all night. am upset that now that my DH is finally coming back home my poor DS is sick and won't be able to do enjoy much this weekend.
sorry just had to vent.
