Daddy had to work really early on Christmas Eve so he came home and took a nap. While he was resting, Grandma, Grandpa, Uncle Jay, Auntie Jen, and cousin Jay came over. We had a fun afternoon at home. After awhile, Aunt Tee-tee and her boyfriend, Travis came over. We had ham, sweet potatoes, celery (my fav!) and lots of other food for dinner. Caydin found his cousins toy Hess truck and played with it all evening long.
Before bed, Caydin and mommy wrote a letter to Santa, put out some cookies (made by Aunt Julie) and milk and headed to bed to read a million and two Christmas stories.
Perks of being an elementary schhol teacher! It took awhile to get Caydin to sleep, though that didn't really surprise us!
After Caydin finally fell asleep, everyone played Blokus. Sadly, Caydin woke up around 12:30 am with a terrible cough and stuffy nose. He sounded terrible and probably felt horrible. We gave him some medicine and let him lay down in our bed for awhile. Poor big boy.. he would cough, then cry, then repeat. Luckily that only lasted for about an hour before he fell asleep again. Uncle Jay and Daddy stayed up late playing checkers... a Christmas Eve tradition for them.
