It was finally Christmas morning and I was so excited for the boys to come downstairs to see that Santa had been there! They first looked outside and saw that the Reindeer (aka dirt devil) ate their food! We then went to the kitchen and saw that Santa ate his cookies! Finally we went to the living room and saw that Santa had left tons of presents! The boys were excited, but not as much as I thought they would be. Of course we had a ton going on the past several days and I think they were tired and still trying to grasp what was happening. Will and Levi would open one present and then want another. Max was still in his mood and we could barely get him to open anything at first. We handed him a present and he said “its clothes” and didn’t even open it. So we decided to have them open something that was not boring. Their next present was a Bobcat tractor! The boys were very excited and we finally got some emotion from Max! All Christmas long Levi told Santa he wanted a John Deere Tractor and John Deere Trailer, Max wanted a Red tractor and trailer and Will wanted a tractor (sometimes it was orange, sometimes blue and sometimes John Deere). Well Santa fulfilled their wish! And guess what happened when they opened them? Max saw Will’s blue tractor and wanted it instead of his red one! You’ve got to be kidding me! Luckily he decided he like it because Santa was not bringing him another one! The boys played with their toys for a while and then both sets of Grandparents came over for breakfast. After they left we took a nap and then headed over to my Grandma’s.
The entire time at my Grandma's Max kept saying he wanted to go back to mommy’s home. Frankly at this point I just felt bad for the kid. I knew that something was not right and he was not feeling well all weekend. I was exhausted and I knew he was. I was sad that he was so miserable, especially for Christmas. I was going to call the doctor the next morning. He did eventually go and play with all of his cousins very well, but kept saying he wanted to go home. We came home and let them play with their toys for a while before bed. Well good news! That night Max slept through the night for the first time in weeks! And guess what? He was so happy and smiley all day! I didn’t call the doctor yet because it seems that maybe he is feeling better and getting over whatever it was that was making him feel so crappy! I am keeping my fingers crossed that he stays this way!
