Let me start off by expressing my frustration with having to work on Christmas Eve...until 4pm!!! How was I supposed to get everything done in time for Santa?! This made my typical 3 day weekend busy as ever - it included finishing up shopping with my mom, baking tons of cookies, wrapping presents, brunch with my cousin, and cleaning the house from top to bottom. Somehow it is not a holiday without the house clean and in order to my liking.
The best thing about co-parenting is as soon as I picked up pizza (our traditional Christmas Eve dinner which my mom now abhors) and ate, Santa came to our house at 5pm. Santa and his elves started assembling toys and I got to work arranging everything under the tree...after all, I still had to get in the kitchen.

| Our Christmas Tree |
 |
| Santa dropped these off, but they will be donated to older boys & girls or maybe auntie can keep them for herself. Ha! |

| Christmas Breakfast |
 |
| He loves to help Auntie clean, now he has his own Dyson |
 |
| Only my mother and I would get a tricycle with NO helmet - good thing Papi thinks of things like that |
 |
| After his nap, he was ready to go. Again! |
My mom made a delicious Christmas dinner of fried chicken (my fave), ham, mac & cheese, candied yams, potato salad, greens, and string beans - along with hawaiian sweet rolls. Nom nom nom
