We have had a very Merry Christmas this year.  Santa found his way to the hospital and delivered lots of fun presents.  My mom and dad and brother Ty came really early in the morning so they could be here when Sky woke up.  He usually is awake really early in the morning so they came at six, but when they came Skyler was still asleep and didnt want to wake up.  (The morphine and ativan that he got last night didnt help the situation any)  At first I tried awaking him up but with no success so we just let him sleep.  When he did finally decide to wake up he was wet so I changed his "hospital pants" and in the process I totally scratched his leg and made him bleed!  What a way to wake up on Christmas morning, having your mother injure you. Way to go Crystal.  Definitely not the way I imagined the morning going...oopsies!  But as soon as we sat him up and he saw that grandma, grandpa, and Ty Ty were there and that Santa came, he got happy.  It was so fun watching him open his presents and seeing the smile on his face.  He did get tired pretty fast and didnt want to open anymore presents, so we gave him a little break and I opened the rest for him.  After his little rest he started playing with grandpa and Ty and having fun with his toys.  He was laughing so much.  Im so glad that he was still able to enjoy Christmas morning even though it was in a hospital.  I dont care if we had to celebrate it in a cardboard box, Im just so grateful that we got to spend it together.  Im also so grateful that my parents and brother came up so early to celebrate it with us.  Skyler just loves them so much.  Last night he was more excited about seeing them in the morning than having Santa come.  Im also grateful for the nurse I had last night who was so nice and really good about being super quite so Sky wouldn't wake up and Santa could come.  Im also grateful for the nurse we have today.  She is so sweet and helped make this Christmas special.  Here are some pictures from last night and this morning....
