Oo I'm so excited! I feel like I can properly start to feel festive now because last weekend my mother-in-law and I took the boys to a little garden center Christmas parade. It was wet, soggy and a little cold, but we ended up having such a lovely time! (Despite the fact that getting the boys in and out of their car seats and the pram in and our of the car nearly broke us - someone needs to invest something to make that a whole lot easier!).
I'm really really excited for Christmas this year, not just the day, but the build up too! I wouldn't have said I was one of those people who loves Christmas before. But now that I have two children, one who is three in April, I am ridiculously excited about it and now can't get enough of all things Christmas related! I used to be like that with going on holiday - I never really thought much to holidaying, but now that we're a family, I absolutely love going away and getting a break together!
Taking the boys to the Christmas parade was awesome, it was one of those 'I love being a Mummy moments!'. I can't tell you how much I loved seeing the excitement in Ethans face! Logan's a little too young at the moment to properly get excited, but he enjoyed seeing the characters and being out and about. Ethan however, love it all and even managed to get a photo with a real life Transformer and a hand shake from the main main himself (Santa)!
It was so nice being able to spend some time with my mother-in-law, I think really highly of her and so I really enjoyed having a bit of bonding time. We have a lot in common and I love that she and the family would do anything for not only the boys, but for Adam and I too. We're feel very lucky to have members of our family who are like that!
We both spent the entire parade pretty much breaking our backs holding one of the boys each, but I still managed to get a few pictures and a little video too. I think I'd eventually like to make a bit of a Christmas video montage (I love a good montage!) of everything we do for Christmas this year but I thought I'd share this little video of our day too! :)
