Wrapping gifts

I decided this year that I didn't want to be up till 3am on Christmas eve wrapping gifts for everyone.   So I got a jump on it this afternoon and got about half of them done.

My mom was nice enough to take Kalista for a while today so I could get some things done.  When they came in I was working on Adia's gift which is really two.   Kalista is always a big helper and was really interested in what we were doing.

I told her it was for Adia and set it down.  as I got to work on gift #2 Kalista un wrapped #1.   I didn't stop her because it would be so great if she would open things this year instead of letting everything set under the tree for 3 weeks till I open them for her.

So we went on wrapping and opening presents  for about an hour.  One roll of tape, one roll of paper and a full trash can later....  I have yet to get Adia's gifts done.

I am thinking maybe it would be a good idea to buy the holiday bags and just plop it in there right before we give it to her.

I am really hopeful that Kalista will open things this year!  Who cares if they aren't hers!
