Christmas wouldn't be complete without H, Z and now, little R. He has gotten so big in 2 weeks and H and Z are such incredible parents. Doris cuddled with H's childhood teddy bear - the largest bear we know. We chowed on incredible Filipino food and relaxed. Back at home, there were more awesome spare ribs and Connery entertained us with his famous sit trick. Lastly, Christmas wouldn't be Christmas without Christmas Karaoke - every Christmas song, 1 verse, no repeats, as fast as possible. Doris plays the piano, I'll sing or play the flute, Phil plays the trumpet or guitar, mom sings and dad plays the recorder or takes pictures of us from behind. It'll just be Doris, mom and me this year but it is still a treasured tradition. Update: see the laptop on the piano? That's dad on Skype so we did get to sing to him this year. When we were done with the carols, Doris indulged me in a few show tunes and my love for a very nasally Eponine. We're also starting another tradition where M Skypes us as Rudolph. It has a spastic right eye and is very funny.
