Merry Christmas Baby!

Hi baby Elijah!
One of my favorite Christmas songs is "Merry Christmas baby" by Bruce Springsteen so I am singing that to you today. It is a weird Christmas - we have so much snow that Christmas at Great Gramma Lang's is rescheduled. I don't know that this has ever happened! As long as you stay in there cooking, we will be happy - no need to brave a blizzard to have you a couple of days early!

Yesterday, we had Christmas Eve breakfast with your Brigham family and Gramma Debbie's family. Yes, you spoiled brat, you did get presents :) You got some clothes (in bigger sizes you big-fat-pig) and a recliner and a kitchen set. See, your mom never had a kitchen set so I have been whining about that for 30+ years. Your Gramma Debbie decided that she would nip that problem early. Afterwards, we relaxed, watched TV, napped and just hung out.
Last night, we went for Christmas Eve over Great Gramma Lang's. Everyone laughed and had a good time but we will need to have you wear ear plugs because there was a lot of cursing going on. Need to shield you from that because heavens knows you will never hear that come out of your mom or dad's mouth :)

As the weekend continues on, I think our level of anxiety is going to be going up. Your dad started last night and I think I will end up starting late tomorrow. This labor thing kind of flips me out. This labor thing flips your dad out too :) Can we just both take a nappy and wake up to have you here with us? That would work for both of us.
