@kelley.blue, I used to be like that! Haha. But, I host Christmas for 16 people. I have so much to buy, that I’d rather be done by October, that way I can relax and be able to plan the dinner and not stress. I’ve found that if I’m done by October or even the beginning of November, then I can enjoy the holiday more.
I think that’s why so many people dislike Christmas- Because they put off shopping and then become stressed. At least that was definitely my case about 5 years ago.
@tinannas, my sister had her daughter last year and was released ON Christmas Eve. Poor girl. Definitely extremely hard to plan Christmas when you’re so pregnant.
I told my husband “DONT TOUCH ME for the entire month of March. I can’t have a December baby!”. 😂. Too many people rely on my to host Christmas, and I love doing it. I didn’t want to miss it. 😂
@jennatess, I’m so scared I’m going to miss Christmas I love it so much and so do my kids. They’re going to be so sad if I’m having a baby instead of opening gifts with them 😂😩
My in laws, my sister in law, my two sisters, my sisters’ husband, my niece, my daughter & husband. My mom, and my grandma. My husbands grandparents. And then my aunt and uncle. All just for actual Christmas morning.
All but 4 of them stay in my house on Christmas Eve also: 😅.

@jennatess I just bought for my girls this year. Nobody ever appreciates what I get them so I don't want to spend the money lol.

@shayybear, oh I hear ya!
I have so many people. 🤦🏼♀️.

@tinannas, I’m sure it will all work out!
You could also even open like 2 gifts each in the hospital - that would be a fun memory for your oldest, and maybe even a memory for your son as well!
