We went to a Christmas party tonight and had so much fun! All the kids were G's age (except A) so they all played nicely together while the adults drank and talked. I've been to this friend's parties for several years now so we knew the other people there and enjoyed the adult conversation. A was super friendly too. The only downside was G was complaining of a stuffy nose and itchy eyes on the way home, probably from their dog, but it made me paranoid enough about an allergic reaction that I kept her awake for another hour -- until 9:45. We'll see how she is tomorrow after being awake nearly 2 hours past bedtime.
My elf-on-the-shelf set out our gift exchange presents from our very generous board elf. So it's not my fault if we open them tomorrow morning, right? Right. Mondays are just too hectic around here.
