doing good so far

Sunday was a success, minus watching The Family Stone. Since that was the least important I guess it's okay that I didn't get to it! I made it to school today, passed my paper, passed my test. Got baby boy to the dr's because he was running a temp of 104.2 - talk about freaking panic mode! - turns out it's a bad ear infection. Talked to our ENT, we go in to see him on Wednesday so that we can schedule surgery to put tubes in.... joy. Hubby got the lights put up on the house, it looks fabulous! I just love this time of year! I have a long day of clinical tomorrow, sure hope I can make it through the day. I did day 1 of week 2 on the couch to 5k program, my poor shins are sooo sore! And my knees, and my hip.... oh I'm so sadly out of shape!

Question: Do any of you still exchange gifts with your siblings? If yes, do you buy a gift for each sibling or do some type of gift exchange where you draw a name, or just buy a gift and then do a chinese exchange?

I don't have any siblings but in years past I have bought presents for every person in my family! you all the in-laws.. that's a lot of gift giving! we have a few vacations planned {I know, a little selfish} are really cant afford EVERYTHING! so we have told family NO PRESENTS this year! the money you would spend on us, buy something for yourself!

Oh my gosh, I hope your little man feels better soon!!

I only exchange gifts with my youngest brother. My two older brothers live far away and we're not close so they just get a Xmas card...lol.

I can't wait to see pics of the house.

Congrats on the test!
I do not exchange with my sister anymore...we spend money on the kiddos and that's it.

Good luck with tubes on Riley. Those were the best for Devin, he had 2 rounds.

in my family we usually buy gifts for everyone, including siblings and their significant others. although this year we are all (including my parents) just bringing one gift and playing an exchange game. none of us have a lot of money to spend so this will save us all a lot :)

hope you are having a good day!

I still exchange gifts with my sisters (I have two, a twin and a younger one). But sometimes my mom will buy the gifts and I can just wrap it and put a tag on it! LOL.

Congrats on passing the test and paper! Hope your little one is feeling better! Post some pictures of the house too!
