Well, we had quite the Christmas holiday. I was lucky and took the whole week off work to try and get finished up with my shopping and wrapping. Daycare was open Monday and Tuesday so Aniston went to play while I ran around town. Alysha came home Monday and it was so nice to have both girls home for a few days. She's been so busy working and going to school that she only gets to come home a few times a year.
Wednesday we did Christmas Eve at Gram and Poppy Whitener's like we do every year. Aniston was getting a little impatient having to look at all the presents under the tree so we pulled out Frosty the Snowman and she was content to watch it 2 times, which bought us about an hour. When Eric, Alison, Jamie and Cy showed up.....we hit the presents. Aniston was ripping paper and was really getting into what presents were all about. Then Nana pulled out the big guns and brought out her doll crib and high chair. Aniston couldn't get to it fast enough. She was so excited and her baby was immediately "crying" and had to take a nap. She got her new "Hef" jammies as Erik calls them and was sound asleep in the car on the way home.
Thursday we did Christmas day at our house. Aniston actually slept in so we started Christmas morning at 9:30! She opened all her presents and then wanted to play with her new baby and her crib. Thankfully that wore her out and nap time was just around the corner. Erik's dad, brother and Tio Cruz came over that afternoon for dinner. I made a ham with all the trimmings and we ate and relaxed for the rest of the day.
Friday we went to my dad and Rose's for Christmas with them. Betsy and Dustin met us there and Aniston was so happy to see her Auntie B. Dad and Rose got Aniston a teepee/tunnel/tent thing that has a teepee and tent that are connected with two tunnels. Betsy and Aniston had fun trying to get the teepee put together and chasing each other through the tunnels. Of course skinny little B could fit in the tunnel.
We had a great holiday but I was happy to be back at work and back at our routine.
We hope everyone had a wonderful Christmas and a safe New Years!
LOVE, THE MARTINEZES
