Leo's First Christmas
Christmas was a very welcome break this year as I've been working too hard, suffering from a severe lack of sleep and a cold - get the violins! I spent the whole time playing with Leo and forgot completely about work. It was wonderful. We became so close, he even started to get separation anxiety when I left the room!
We spent Christmas at home with the whole family - 11 in total. Luckily it wasn't too much work as everyone helped out and the grannies took over the kitchen!
Leo was so exited that he woke up at 2am on Christmas morning to open his presents. (Actually he was suffering from a cold and couldn't breathe.) We finally got him back down again by 3am, so Mary and I sneakily opened a present each. We felt like naughty children!
With two babies in the house, there were so many presents they filled half the living room and, when it was time to open them, chaos ensued. Poor Leo didn't know what was going on. Although he was extremely excited by all the shiny wrapping paper and his very cute Rudolf the red-nosed reindeer outfit !
It was a shame when it was all over - my best Christmas ever. I hope yours was just as enjoyable.
