All that said, we did accidentally start one tradition. Saturday (the 22nd) was a big day for us. We spent a good part of the day with Aaron's sister and brother-in-law from out of town and then finished up presents, made food, etc. Towards the end of the day, I decided that I wanted to have a simple, but scrumptious dinner of waffles and an egg hash. As I was eating dinner, I realized that last year on Friday (Dec. 23), we had also had waffles amid working on presents and hanging out with Aaron's family. Thus a tradition is born. We'll see if we keep it up.
The reason we did waffles last year was because meat made me feel sick and I was so tired out and we had no food in the house. I remember that eating made me feel so tired that I could barely lift the fork to my mouth to take my next bite of waffle. P-A-T-H-E-T-I-C. I used to say that I was wimp. Aaron's quip back was that I was a wimp: A Woman In the Midst of Pregnancy.
Matthew and Aaron were having a contest to see who could do the worst/strangest wrapping job. |
Look, I'm pregnant. I didn't put on any makeup. I didn't even get out of my PJ's that day. Oh, and there is a chance I might have even puked. |
