watching football and grilling steaks Tomorrow we are dropping the trips off at my parents for the day/night so we will probably go out tomorrow night!
DH always does this thing where he wants me to find something to do. He waits until the last minute and that leaves no time to really find something. I am not even bothering with looking because I am exhausted from him having a man cold for that 7 days. Thinking of either getting silly with some sake at home or grabbing some wine on the way home. But it's kinda of sad to get drunk by yourself.

Sitting home being grumpy while looking after sick ds2 and watching the BBT marathon. Dh is taking ds1 out to a fun pot luck with friends we haven't seen in ages. Grumble grumble grumble
Working, womp womp. At least it should be a fun night, everyone is bringing in food and we'll hopefully deliver the first baby of the new year!
Do the parents get anything?
Nope. Our hospital is lame in that aspect. I remember growing up the small hospital in my hometown got donations from local businesses, and the first baby of the new year got a huge gift basket and rode home from the hospital in a limo, lol. Our local paper does usually do a little write up about the family though.

Fondue night with friends. First cheese, then oil, then chocolate! We've done it every NYE we've been married - this will be the 8th year! Sending DD to my parents and they'll come over for leftovers tomorrow.
We are chilling at McDonald's because the kids are having the time of their life still. H works 4-8ish so pasta and booze after that. H will be asleep by 930 and i will read. Hs family has Christmas all weekend so I'm ok just hanging out.
Having a few friends with kids over at our house. It's only 2:30 and I'm ready for a nap! I hope to get a second wind because a nap isn't happening today!
We're picking up our new car as soon as I can get DH away from his computer
We're lame. We turned down 2 different party invitations and one to go play games and drink with 2 other couples. Instead, we're staying home with C, ordering takeout, and doing nothing. I promised C I'd lay in our bed with her and watch a movie when it's "dark dark" outside. That likely means I'll fall asleep well before midnight.
We're headed to a friends right now to visit them and our friends in from China. We will be there a couple hours and then home for the kids' dinner/bedtime routine.
H and I are making a nice meal after they go to bed.
Friends are coming over for a low key night. One set lives across the street and is bringing their 5 year old. Another has to work at 8am tomorrow. We have a 6 week old, so between all of us, the party will end at 12:05.
We're just having picky food and drinking a mix of whatever the hell we want. Not fancy, but works for me!
H is working, so I plan on taking the Christmas tree down and cleaning. Exciting stuff. Hopefully on Saturday night we can put together a nice meal and have a belated celebration.

We are staying in. My brother and SIL invited us to their party tonight but they live an hour away. I don't want to drive home late or spend the night trying to sleep with all 4 of us in one room. So we'll have an easy dinner (BBQ and jelly little smokies with cheesy potatoes) and watch the always impress illegal fireworks display our neighbors put on.
I picked up some snacks/appetizers for DH and I to have for dinner after we put the babies to bed. We will probably celebrate at 9 our time, when it is midnight in the east coast.
