Cheese. I always told my kids that New Year's was an adult holiday, so my older kids always watch the kids. Your other holiday traditions sound fun to. I usually buy my kids pajamas for xmas, and the usually get to open that gift on xmas eve too. I might start incorporating the older kids into that tradition.

My ex an I always thought it was strange how most of our friends viewed New Year's Eve as a chance to escape their kids. I think I am going to start doing the pajama thing every year as Sebastian's "something to wear" maybe if he gets enough sleep shirts he will start wearing one to bed!

I'm sure the neighbors think we're nuts, but it's something my parents did with me when I was a child (except at midnight), and Mouse seems to enjoy it.
