...and all through our house, our little Aidan was sick with a fever and a cough!
Aidan came down with an ear infection, horrible cough, runny nose, and high fever (103.2) a couple of days before his 1st Christmas! Our sweet little boy lost the sparkle in his eyes, cried a lot, and just wanted to be held. He was really sick! We pumped him full of antibiotics in hopes that he would feel a little better for Christmas. He was so sick that we couldn't even make it to church on Christmas Eve this year.
We did venture out later that night to Macaroni Grill to eat Christmas Eve dinner with both of our families. We left the restaurant early and headed home to tuck our sick, little man in bed. Aidan perked up just a little to set out cookies and milk for Santa. He cracked us both up as he tried to shove all 3 chocolate chip cookies in his mouth!
My mom (Nana) started a tradition with Anthony and I thirty years ago that she still does with us today. She always gives us new Christmas pajamas to wear on Christmas Eve. She continued this special tradition with Aidan as she gave him his first Christmas Eve jammies to wear.
