We had invited Buddy, Pops and PawPaw to Christmas morning breakfast. We had planned on getting up and ready early but they were here before I even got out of the shower. Fortunately, LeLe is a late sleeper so Matt and I were able to get fully clothed before she awoke.
When she walked into the living room, she was amazed! She stood there for about 10 minutes without touching a thing. Finally, after us instructing her that it was okay, she ran up and gave Riff (the dinosaur on Barney) a big hug! She was so excited about Riff! She eventually got all of her presents opened.
Buddy and Pops brought over a breakfast casserole but LeLe was too excited about her presents to waste any time eating. So, she played in her kitchen and cut up fruit while we ate breakfast.
Shortly after eating breakfast, Buddy, Pops and PawPaw headed to the Allen house. Matt and I ran around and got all of our last minute gifts together and around 1:00 headed to their house.
Around 2:30, I got a call from Laura that we needed to take daddy to the hospital. So, Matt and I left LeLe with his family and headed to help get daddy to UAB. We all got kicked out of the ER so Laura and Mother ended up staying with him. We drove Matt Skinner to get his car and then we headed back to the Allen house where we continued to have Christmas. LeLe got a ton of presents from Buddy and Pop and had a wonderful time playing with Jason, Sara Kate and Samuel.
She was so exhausted by the time we left, she actually fell asleep in the car. Let me just say, I can count on my hands the number of times that she has fallen asleep in the car.
Laura called around 6:00 and said that they were admitting daddy for dehydration and elevated ammonia levels. Around 9:00, he was placed in a room. I am scheduled to go visit him in the morning.
