I woke up about 6:00 to Maddie burning up with a pretty high fever. I gave her some Motrin and attempted to go back to sleep for a bit before the excitement began. We really could not go back to sleep and tossed and turned for a bit, before finally we asked Maddie if she wanted to get up. She seemed to be ok, so I went in and asked Ellie if she was ready. She hopped up quick ready to go. She was so excited, but Maddie had no interest in opening up gifts at first. About 30 minutes later after her fever broke, she came around and sat down with me as I helped her open her gifts.
Maddie loves her crocs
Finally found a poor baby boy!!!
We cannot forget Chloe
Maddie's three presents she wanted was: Barbie Jeep, Poor Baby Brother, and she added An American Girl Doll in the last week on me-put I did get her something for her Bitty Baby, so that was close enough.
Ellie's only asked for crafts this year. But we knew she wanted an iPad of her own and boy was she excited.
After we played for a bit, and Maddie started feeling better, we loaded up and went to Mom and Dads. The girls are a bit spoiled and they loved all of their gifts.
This was E's favorite and she could not wait to open it up and play with it
Maddie loved her Minnie sets
After a few hours at Mom and Dad's we again loaded up and headed to Nanny's for dinner.
My poor baby needed a nap on the way

We finished the day by stopping back by Bob and Janet's to wish them a Merry Christmas. The girls were beat. Ellie was starting to be snotty and was running a really low grade fever. I had stayed on top of Maddie's fever with meds--but she was just wearing down from only have a little nap. The girls were so excited when we got home and they could play--the only problem was they did not know what to play with first.
Christmas 2013 was such a blessing even though we were fighting sickness, but it could have been worse. We are truly blessed. Thank you most Jesus for the best gift of all.
