Christmas

Christmas eve, Wasn't too exciting during the day. We just enjoyed time relaxing and Kenneth being goofy. Tim and Brittany helped their mom make dinner. I was still dealing with feeling nauseated most days as a result of not taking pills and still coughing from being sick. I wasn't sure why but that night I couldn't eat dinner, except a couple bites of fruit salad. After a short nap I felt a little better and we had their Christmas Eve night. Kendra read a story that captured both the Bible and Book of Mormon parts of the Nativity. Then we opened presents. 

Kenneth was spoiled he got so many new toys, books, a Thomas Movie and clothes. He didn't care one bit about the clothes. Which was fine, as I thought they were all super cute. 

I received a new camera which I'm so excited about plus some essential oils, some makeup and nail polish, a snuggie (yes I wanted it), and some other things.

Tim got a piano bench which was needed as he's been using a cooler. Plus some gift cards and other things he wanted but he mainly wanted Amazon Gift cards.

We all receive pajamas which we all wore that night as is tradition.

Christmas morning Kenneth work up way to early, but was too excited to be convinced to go back to sleep. So we went to see what Santa brought. He brought a tool bench, with tools and two projects to build. Plus a puppy that he can make walk and bark, another book and some candy that he was quick to open one and eat. The rest of us mainly received things in our stockings/boots. The girls got more makeup things from Kendra that were the same. Tim got a bag of black licorice and a headlamp. After we were done, I went back to sleep in Kenneth's bed. Tim's mom had made orange rolls the night before so we all enjoyed one and some scrambled eggs for breakfast. We skyped with Katie and Aj for a little bit. Then skyped with my family. Kenneth unfortunately started throwing up then so we stopped talking and that's what we dealt with for the rest of the day. Tim's mom was going to do a fancier dinner but was afraid more people would come down with what Kenneth had. I also threw up later in the day, but thankfully sleeping some more and sipping some 7-up slowly went away, Kenneth sipped some of mine through a syringe and that seemed to help him too.

The day after Christmas, Tim's mom realized she forgot to give us some presents that she meant to. Mainly socks, I was glad to get some new socks as some of mine are wearing out. Kenneth had received some wrapped up which was great since we had barely had enough to make it through to laundry day. Other than that we didn't do much and just let Kenneth play with some of his toys.
