Christmas Day continued (at Lily's!)

Here we are on Christmas Day on St. Charles Street in Homewood! Yes, Miss Lily's house was our first stop of the day! We were met with the aroma of delicious food as we walked in! cheese grits; ham; fruit trays; cheeses; muffins; cinnamon rolls; YUMMY!!! We TRIED to eat but Lily had already spied the gifts! She said, "GRANJAN, that spells L-I-L-Y!" She was right of course! Most of the gifts were, indeed, for LILY! She couldn't WAIT to start tearing into them, squealing the whole time! She was so proud of her new baby doll crib and loved putting her new baby from Aunt Cutie in it too. We had fun watching her feed her baby and change her diaper. Big T asked her, "What's your baby's name?" and she said, of COURSE, "DAISY!" haha! Soon enough, Daisy, herself arrived along with her mommy, daddy, brother and Uncle Pat. They nibbled on the delicious food and then, before we knew it, we smelled soup and cornbread! That Kadie! She's a magician in the kitchen! Kadie's mom and dad , step sister and grandmother also were also there. (Lily's "NONNA and PAPA" and "Memaw")! We had a wonderful time and I wasn't the only one behind the lens of my camera, Michael was shooting the whole time with the video camera! All in all a wonderful morning!........(Tomorrow's entry will be at Nat/Brad's opening gifts)!

 

P.S. for all of you who have e-mailed me or called about Nat/Katie>>> Katie has STREP. She went to the doctor this morning and she said Dr. Marshall said, "Oh my gosh! Those tonsils look PAINFUL!" He thought she might have mono b/c they were soooo enlarged, but she had "only" strep . She and Jon are gonig tomorrow to Gatlinburg, so glad she got meds first. Her tonsils are so swollen he also gave her a prescription of prednisone as well as antibiotics for the strep. Already the tonsils have gone down some. She had a high fever all night/this morning but finally it is MUCH better.... Now on Natalie! Natalie feels fine during the day but at night her tummy continues to hurt. "Doctor" GranJan wonders, "could it be gall bladder?" I told her she better start filling up some bottles with breast milk soon just in case GranJan has to take over!!!!!!!! haha Seriously,  Hopefully, tonight she will feel better but if it continues, she promises us ,(me and Brad and her dad), she WILL go back to her doctor. next week. (She did go last week but he thought she was o.k., no fever to think it could be an infection or anything). Besides, Dr. Sharp is out of town right now but will be back next week so if she continues to wake up nauseous and sick, she'll go back to the doctor. Maybe she'll feel better  in the next couple of days and won't even have to go..... I just hate it that BOTH MY GIRLS HAVE BEEN SICK! I hate seeing them feeling bad  and I'm ready for them to GET WELL!!!!!!!!
