We're having Christmas again on Saturday.

So, DS#2 demanded that we leave the tree up until daddy comes back.  (Thank goodness for artificial.)  His presents are still underneath it.  I was thinking though, that it might be a little more fun if I had one small gift for each of the boys to open underneath as well....so that they can open gifts with daddy. 

Of course, MH has no idea about any of this...he'd tell me I was nuts and not to do it (but he'd love the surprise and welcome it).

So, should the tree just only hold the gifts for MH or should I also have a little something for the boys?

I'd just do the gifts for your H. ?If your house is anything like mine, there's no room for more toys! ?:)

I would absolutely make Christmas cookies though! ?Fun!?

Do something small for them, too.

Something small for the boys!

Maybe the gifts could be related to something they can do with him - baseball or Playdoh or movie/zoo tickets or whatever it is that boys do!

Ditto! l love the idea of them being able to open gifts they can use with their Daddy (and you!) together.  Maybe put a few little things in the stockings, too?

Oh, I'm so excited for you - he's almost home!!!!   MERRY CHRISTMAS!!!!

Awww...how fun!

Definitely get them something small (even if its dollar stuff). I'd totally go all out - make cookies, play music, make a whole fun day out of it. Even make something holiday-ish for christmas.
