Christmas Day

We had a great Christmas this year, with the exception of poor Shaylee who woke up at 4 am throwing up! Not a good way to start out Christmas day! Luckily she went back to sleep for a few more hours and then at 7 am she woke up again and I let her go get all her brothers up. We came down the stairs Christmas morning to a tree full of gifts from Santa Clause. Shaylee was able to open her presents and play a bit with her toys until after lunch and then the stomach bug really hit her HARD! Poor thing was down and out for the rest of Christmas Day and all of the day after. She was really sick. When she started feeling better, she asked when Christmas would come again. I think she felt kind of jipped because she wasn't feeling well. It was sad to have to tell her not for 364 more days baby doll!



We stayed at home for Christmas and all the kids enjoyed playing with their new toys. It was nice to be together as a family with nothing to do, but eat and have fun. We miss our family on Christmas day, but we are grateful for each other and the fun we have together as our own little family.

OH NO!!! Shaylee was sick for Christmas. Last year it was Pete.
Hopefully Christmas 2010 all will be well.

Poor Shay! No fun to be sick at Christmas! Matthew was sick a few years ago at Christmas!

Looks like your kids made the nice list this year! ;0) That is sad being sick on Christmas. She'll have to 'live it up' next year.
