Christmas 2012

Dear my precious',
Another Christmas is over and gee you were spoilt. I still 2 days later don't know where I am going to put everything. Christmas eve I brought your santa sacks to dad while you were not here and he says to me. Good to see you didn't go overboard LOL. What can I say I could have gone more overboard. I love to buy you things and make you happy.

Christmas Eve we went to Bib's house and you had a ball running around with Ella and Gemma. Playing on the trampoline and waiting until it was time to go home and get ready for Santa to come. When we got home you were so excited Zack. I quickly popped the 3 of you and me in the shower for a quick wash then we started to get ready. As soon as we got out of the shower and I was dressed I told you to go sit on the lounge as I had a present for you. I sat Amahlia in between you both and got your presents. You opened them up and you Zack pipped up with why is it only clothes, most unimpressed. I had to laugh. When I told you they were Christmas pj's to wear because Santa was coming tonight you excitedly put them on. Zack you and I then went to get the reindeers some food. You chose to give them 2 carrots and some broccoli. When I asked you what you wanted to leave for Santa you said milk, a banana and a mango. So that is what we left out. You didn't want santa to get to fat LOL. You then laid out everyones santa sacks getting very annoyed with Ashton as he moved them around on you. Then the 4 of us went into your room to watch a movie while your father passed out on the lounge.

I woke Zack and Ashton up at 7.30am unable to wait for you any longer wanting to see your eyes light up while opening your presents from Santa. Zack got right into it openeing present after present every now and then going over to get something out from mum and dads stockings to open it for them. Ashton was happy running around with the first present you opened. Ash finally got into it and you all had a ball. While  you were opening your presents Mahli woke up and I let you help her open her presents after you had opened all of both of yours.

We then went to Manly nan and pops for breakfast and more presents. Then off to Eel nans and pops for lunch and more presents. After lunch we went to Aunty Kims to meet with everyone to open more presesnts from everyone. You had a great time being santa's helpers and handing out the presents and opening your own.

After seeing everyone and opening all your presents we went home so you can play with everything and I mean EVERYTHING you got. You were all very very spoilt.

Dear My Big Boy,
Last night I accidentally called Ashton "Big boy" and I got in trouble from you because that is what I call you. You said "Mum don't call him that that is what you call me, call him your little boy" I said oh sorry I won't do it anymore. So now I am trying very hard not to slip up. You will always be my biggest boy!

You are getting so big and clever. There is so much you can do now. It makes me sad watching you get so big and not needing me as much. You can be so helpful. You get into our car clip your brother in for me into his seat then get into your seat and do yourself up. So clever. You are a master at writing your name. You have brought stories home from pre school that you wrote with one of the teachers. I can tell you are so ready for school next year. You know it hurt mummy to bend over and pick things up from the floor (pregnant with your youngest brother) so you pick up all your toys for me or put everything on the lounge for me so I don't have to bend over. You are so much more helpful to me then your father is.

You are still mummy's boy and I think you will always be. You and  your father clash heads to much and I do think your dad is to hard on you and expects more of you then he should. He forgets you are 5 not 15 years old. Make me even more protective of  you. You are such a sensitive soul and I worry about you. I love you so much and I don't want you to hurt or think I don't love you ever bc I love you so much Zackie. Don't ever forget it.

You currently love to watch mario on you tube. You ask me all the time to watch it on the laptop or tablet. Wrestling with Ashton is also a favourite passtime. I wish you wouldn't you are so much bigger and stronger than him I am scared you are going to hurt him. You love playing soccer. You try your little heart out although you mostly jump up and down and run around behind everyone else. I just love watching you play it is so cute. You are very good at kicking the ball though when your coach calls you up to kick off.

Zack don't ever EVER think that I don't love you. I love you more then anything in this world. Don't forget it you are my wonderful, smart, beautiful, big boy! LOVE YOU EVA!
