Onesie Christmas Eve

“Twas the night before Christmas, when all through the house Not a creature was stirring, not even a mouse. The stockings were hung by the chimney with care, In hopes that St Nicholas soon would be there.

The children were nestled all snug in their beds, While cuddled in onesies, hoods on their heads. And Mamma in her hoody, and I in my bed hat, Had just settled our brains for a long winter’s nap..”

It's Christmas Eve! The day to put all of our final touches to our Christmas Day preparations. Although some of us will be doing our Christmas shopping last minute...(Dad)... Try to wrap up last minute gifts first thing. (It just means that there's one less thing to stress about) When it comes to wrapping, there are plenty of ways you can switch it up a bit... You could give it that extra personal touch by using the recipients favourite magazine, newspaper, map, etc, as wrapping paper. A wrapped gift can reflect the amount of thought you put into a gift, so you want to make sure it's well done. Always remember to remove price tags, and if you just can't get the hang of wrapping (don't worry, we know it's sometimes tricky) then a Christmas gift bag is a safe alternative. Once your gifts are wrapped, it's then time to play Santa by making sure that all your family have their gifts to open tomorrow morning. It's better to get this done sooner rather than later too, just to avoid a last minute rush. By this time the children will be bursting with excitement due to tonight's events, so it's wise to give them little activities to keep them occupied throughout the day. By mixing together oats and glitter, you can create your very own reindeer dust to guide them to your home. Later on tonight, prepare a little gift for Santa himself to greet him when he comes down the chimney. A glass of sherry and a mince pie, or, milk and cookies will be greatly appreciated. You can even leave a carrot as a tasty treat for his reindeer. Once everything is sorted it's time to have a nice hot bubbly bath and settle into our onesies and pyjama's ready for Santa coming!
