Christmas Eve

I had taken the entire week off from work to hang out with the kids and it was a good thing. On Monday I ended up taking M to the doctor because her eyes were watery and had a horrible cough. Well it turns out that she had pink eye in both eyes and a lot of congestion in her chest and head, which she had been fighting for over a week and a half. We ended up coming home with eye drops and antibiotic's to help her fight all the congestion. We were not sure if we would be able to join everyone for the holidays, but we were very excited when Christmas Eve came and M's eyes were clear and her cough was much better. M was excited all day that Santa was coming at night. Luckily M and C slept in so they would be perky to celebrate at night, unfortunately Mike had to go to work until noon. Both Mike and I got what ever M had.

It has been our tradition to go over to my parents house on Christmas Eve. My mom always has appetizers and dinner for us and we let the kids open some gifts, if not they drive us crazy. It's nice because each one takes a turn and shares what they received. It's fun to see their excitement.
