*Joey, Daniel and Maria take all eleven of the kids to meet with Santa! Thank you to JustJanielobsessed for helping me write this! Send suggestions on what you wanna see! Love • Bree ❤️💚

Today has been a relaxing and fun Saturday at the Graceffa-Preda household!

All of the kids have been hanging out and mostly playing board games or playing outside while Maria, Daniel and Joey all catch up on the many piles of nonstop laundry they have!

The dogs and the cats all had grooming appointments earlier in the morning and all of them did very well and they are now sleeping!

Aspen just changed the rabbits' cage bedding and Haven just changed the guinea pigs' cage bedding!

While the kids are either taking a nap or relaxing in the playroom, Daniel and Maria are both ironing the kids' special outfits to see Santa later!

Joey and Daniel weren't going to have the kids see Santa this year due to the pandemic happening.

However, the Santa they always go to only allows families by appointments and it is very safe, so Joey and Daniel have both decided to allow the kids to meet with Santa!

Also this will be the very first time Bria, Tristan and Sienna meet with Santa and this year will also be their first ever Christmas!

Joey is currently relaxing on the couch and is half asleep, when Daniel walks over with a glass of water for Joey.

Joey slowly opens his eyes and smiles up at Daniel and Daniel smiles back at Joey.

"Thank you, Danny. Are the little kids up from their nap yet?" Joey asks Daniel as he sips on his water happily.

"Eden, Bria and Sienna are all up but Ash and Tristan are still sleeping. Those boys are having growth spurts!" Daniel says making Joey laugh.

"Especially Ash, since his birthday was two days ago!" Joey says as he laughs.

"I feel like we are seeing Santa late this year! Oopsies!" Daniel says as he chuckles.

"No, we saw him later when Ash was born. Remember? Christmas was two days away when we saw Santa." Joey says as he laughs and Daniel smiles at Joey.

"You needed to recover from Ash's birth." Daniel says to Joey and Joey laughs.

"I was fine though! We weren't they long!" Joey says as he laughs.

Maria then walks over holding the triplets' meeting Santa outfits up.

"Are these the outfits the babies will wear today?" Maria asks Joey and Daniel and Daniel nods.

"Yes, they are!" Daniel says happily.

"I love how Bria and Sienna dress like twins! So precious!" Maria says with a smile.

"Well, they are kinda like twins! They were in the womb together and born the same day!" Joey says as he laughs making Maria smile.

Just then, Ash runs over, holding one of his new toys he got for his birthday.

"Elp!" Ash says as he smiles at Joey and Daniel.

"Do you want this toy opened?" Joey asks Ash softly.

"Ya open!" Ash says with a big grin.

"What do you say?" Daniel asks Ash softly.

"Ease!" Ash says with a cheeky smile.

"Good boy!" Joey says proudly at Ash for using his manners.

Daniel then opens Ash's new toy and hands it to him to play with.

"Fank you!" Ash says happily to Joey and Daniel.

"You're welcome!" Joey and Daniel both say in unison to Ash.

"Are you excited to see Santa today, Ashy?" Daniel asks Ash as he plays with Ash's curls.

"Ya! Cited to see Santa!" Ash says as he smiles even though he doesn't remember who Santa is exactly.

"We will see Santa in a little bit! What are you going to ask him for?" Joey asks Ash with a smile.

"Toys!" Ash says as he giggles at Joey and Daniel.

"Oooo! How fun! I am sure Santa will give you and all of your siblings Joey says with a big smile.

Daniel then looks at baby monitor and sees that Tristan is now awake from his nap!

"Tristan is awake now! Let me go get him and start getting the triplets dressed and ready to go!" Daniel says with a big smile.

"Ashy! Let me get you dressed and ready too! We are getting ready to see Santa so soon!" Joey says as Ash gets excited.

"Yay! Santa!" Ash says as he giggles and smiles at Joey.

"Kids! It is time to get dressed to see Santa!" Maria says to the older kids with a big smile.

Daniel and Joey help Bria, Tristan, Sienna and Ash all get dressed while Maria is helping Eden, River and Luna all get dressed!

Aspen, Everett, Maxwell and Haven are in their bedrooms getting dressed and ready!

"I can't wait to see Santa today too! Finally something normal to do!" Haven says with a grin and Aspen smiles back too.

"Yeah! I am so excited to see Santa! Even though Covid still here, I am happy we can still see Santa!" Luna says with a big smile.

"Yeah! Santa doesn't get Covid!" River says as he smiles happily.

"Yeah, he doesn't! That's what the TV said!" Eden says as she dances around and giggles.

"The TV said Santa and the elves can't get it!" River says with a big grin.

"That's good! But he will still wear a mask like us! And the elves will and we will too!" Aspen says with a smile.

"I wanna give Santa a high five when I see him today!" Maxwell says as he giggles loudly.

"No, maybe a high elbow! That is the safer thing to do!" Everett says with a big grin at Maxwell.

"That is very true! We need to stay safe!" Maxwell says as he smiles back at Everett.

"Let's get on our shoes on! We need to get moving!

"We are already running behind!" Haven says with some sass, making Joey and Daniel both laugh.

"That's what happens when you have a lot of people that need to get ready!" Joey says with a cheeky smile at Haven.

Aspen, Everett, Maxwell, Haven, Luna, River, Eden and Ash all put their shoes on while Daniel and Joey help Bria, Tristan and Sienna put their little shoes on!

"Let's all load up! Cats, dogs, rabbits and guinea pigs, be good!" Joey says out loud to all of the Graceffa-Preda animals before locking up the house!
