I feel like we are really struggling to get the whole Christmas gift thing done!! Not to mention this year I have a 12 year old who hasn't really asked for much of anything. It's like noone is in the spirit at all. Not even me. I haven't even baked and I think most of y'all know me and know how much I love baking. Ugh Emoticon 4951

I feel like we got it all done way early and now it's kind of boring just waiting. Do some baking, that will put you in the mood. I made sugar cookies with my 3 yr old and it was a lot of fun. 4951

What a bummer. Emoticon I'm the total opposite. I'm a Christmas crackhead. Baking constantly, always wrapping presents, whether they're presents from us or I'm helping my mom tackle her wrapping. We've been taking stuff to neighbors, baking for DH's co-workers, watching Christmas movies every other day, doing Christmas crafts every day, planning fun places to move that damn elf on the shelf, singing along with the Christmas music daily on sunny 99.1 in the car, I loooove Christmas! You are SO blessed with a loving DH, 3 amazing boys, your health, a beautiful home, food on the table, a wonderful community, family, friends. Think bigger picture. If your 12 year old is being a grinch, give him what little he is asking for & maybe be creative with some other gifts he is not asking for. I'm sure he will appreciate anything you get him. Do some of the things with them that maybe you enjoyed doing with your loved ones as a child. Make some ornaments for the tree, do some baking, go ice skating, make a gingerbread house, drive around looking at Christmas lights, etc. I hope you find your Christmas spirit. This really is the most wonderful time of the year. Emoticon 4951

I am the same way.  I think its because Thanksgiving was so late and before we knew it Christmas was here.  I don't like rushing all these holidays.... Christmas movies first of November...just don't like it.... 4951

I have always believed Christmas is a "state of mind" . I guess that comes from being a military brat & then being married to a military  man. If  a birthday or Christmas came while they were gone we just waited till they came home & celebrated then . We have had  March birthdays in June & Sept. in December. We have celebrated Christmas at least one time in each month . Our kids grew up knowing that Santa came  twice if daddy was gone, cause we left the tree up until daddy came home & had Christmas all over again . So  just believe in the spirit of Christmas & you can get there ....it's only a state of mind & you know what they say about "mind over matter " , if you don't mind it really doesn't matter " , so just get your mind set & Christmas will get  to you . 4951
