Where are you with Christmas shopping, etc.?

[vtdiamond]

I'm only like 1/4 of a way done with gift shopping, so have lots more to do this week. And have not wrapped anything yet :/

I finished our Xmas cards last night, we're sending almost 50 this year.

Going to my parents for Xmas so don't have to worry about cooking

I still have to get my brother something. I bought a joint present for him and his wife, and something small for her, but I had no idea what to get him until last night. I need to get my husband one more decent gift, and some stocking stuffers for him and my mom.
I haven't wrapped a blessed thing yet.
We just found out yesterday that the ILs are coming to our house for Christmas day, so I need to figure out a menu now.

Shopping is done, all but 2 gifts are shipped. Hopefully tomorrow.

I'm making another 2 gifts. One will be done tomorrow, the other will probably be late

We won't do a big dinner until the 28th so we can include MIL (she gets here the 27th)

Cards are 2/3 done. I had 90 this year

Cards are done & mailed (only 40 this year)... gifts are all purchased & wrapped (except 1)... I have a couple Dunkin' GCs to get & put in cards...

Then that's it... well, Saturday night we will be assembling the play kitchen...

Gah. We still have so much to do. Need to buy a couple gifts, ORDER cards, figure out christmas dinner, and wrap everything. Wrapping will probably occur christmas eve because if we do them early and put them under the tree, the kids will tear into them like rabid dogs.

[drloretta]

Oh yeah, wrapping. We've barely started

What is it with your sets of parents making last-minute holiday decisions? I feel for you!

Well, it was a wait-and-see due to H's grandmother, but yeah. We offered a week or two ago, so it would have been nice if they'd decided before now. I have NO IDEA what I'm going to make, honestly.

Oh my gosh, no! No worries, Rock. They were kind of a pain in the ass about it, so you weren't totally off base.
