The first round of holiday guests arrive today. Four additional souls wandering around my house, eating my food and drinking my liquor. Four more tomorrow.

While I feel your pain, you're not gonna get much sympathy from me.

My in-laws have lived with us for six years. That however, by the grace of God, comes to an end next month. Best fucking Christmas gift EVAH!

Yeah, at this point, I legit don't care about getting stuff for Christmas. We still do a gift exchange with my wife's cousin, and I get some small stuff from my in-laws, but I'd rather they spend the money on my kids.

We still usually exchange gifts. We don’t buy much for ourselves over the course of the year and I like buying people gifts. We actually opened our gifts as a family last night because I didn’t want to haul the shit to ND. Everyone seemed pleased. Although my gift from Mr. Kobe was new irons, so it’ll be a delayed gratification.

That would be a nightmare. My wife’s sisters aren’t even here yet and they’re already fighting.

Yeah. It gets a lot easier after you're past the bicycle assembly stage for kids.

Shit, the Melissa and Doug shit is a pain in the ass. I've built grocery store, doctors office, kitchen, and other shit I can't remember.

That American Girl Doll shit might be overpriced, but I'll say this in their favor, there's practically no assembly.

We leave Wednesday and are spending about 10 days in ND. I’ve seen enough family the past month already to last me a year. This is going to be a real strain on my patience.

We're two and done. Getting snipped next week.

Get snipped a day prior to the opening of the NCAA basketball tourney. That way you have an excuse to sit in your recliner with an ice bucket full of beer between your legs and watch the games for 4 days straight.
You need to milk it for all it's worth.
"Pain level 9 out of 10 honey. I can't move. Can you refill my bucket?"

That was the advice given to me by the doc that snipped me. I was fine, but it worked like a charm. LOL

4 days. Men are such pansies. I was in my office 2 days after giving birth.

Yep. We are no longer in the “some assembly required” stage of gifting, but there will still be set-up. Bought the girls a new gaming computer, but they’ll probably set it up themselves.

I'd like to get snipped, but I'm afraid it will rob me of my essence.

Plus, I'm aware of a case (I understand it's probably one in a billion) where the guy was snipped and two years later fathered twins. :oops:

Yep, and it's always the same.

'oh, I'll be able to knock that out in an hour or so,' and then three hours later. . .
