Our Xmas celebration began Xmas Eve with dinner at Shawn's Aunt's and Uncle's house. His Uncle even got on the roof dressed as Santa and threw presents down to him. It was hilarious.
Caden was spoiled rotten by Shawn's Aunt/Uncle and his own Uncle Shannon.
We didn't get Caden down to sleep until about 11pm on Xmas eve since we wanted to drive by and show him some holiday lights and we had yet to put out the cookies and carrots for Santa, which included an explanation of course and a sampling of the cookies by Caden.
This made for a late start Xmas morning. Caden is sleeper when he goes to bed at 8:30 so an 11pm bedtime makes for a late, late morning.
Caden made his appearance around 10:30. By this time, Shawn and I were both up and dressed as was Adele...our Xmas Princess.
Caden opened a few presents only to became completely distracted by them. We had to refocus him several times. It actually took a full day to get everything open...and he really didn't have that much to open!
Caden's Aunt Suzy and Uncle Mat came for the day and Uncle Shannon came back as well. Suzy is Caden's Godmother, Shannon is his Godfather, and Mat is Adele's Godfather...I actually only realized that we had all the Godparents here (with the exception of one) right now. It was so nice.
We had a delicious tailor-made menu of pigs in blankets, sushi, filet Mignon, salad, and stuffing. It was exactly what everyone wanted.
Everyone left by 8pm and as soon as I had a moment to rest, I realized I had quite the cold brewing. And today, I feel horrible. Our entire household has gotten The Cold. Shawn brought it home, shared it with Caden and now it's my turn and our sweet Adele. My poor 7-week old little muffin is all congested and coughing.
She is the cutest, sweetest, most precious thing I've ever seen and her sweet little kitten cries as she moans with her cold are truly heartbreaking. My poor girl. Soon, we'll be done with this shizz soon. Hopefully by New Year's!
