It's turned into a special one for me this year. Became an uncle for the 2nd time yesterday, this time to twins (boy and a girl). 2 months premature but both the babies and my sister-in-law are doing well Big difference to last year when I spent 5 days over Christmas by myself so to not only be with the family but have 2 new additions feels amazing.
Luckily for them I'm an organised uncle and have already bought CCFC home and away baby grows, which I'm sure will go down well with their Wolves supporting Mum
Merry Christmas and happy Boxing Day to those who do it all again today with the other set of Grandparents/parents/in laws.
Sounds like a moan but it’s not - a second day for the kids to open presents, be with family and get all the attention.
And more importantly (joking, sort of…) another day of babysitters on site all day and night so we can actually have a few drinks and relax!
Covid scuppered our plans of a big (40+) family get together with family from all the place converging, but this is just as good. Plus, we’ve got my 95 year old Gran with us who’s absolutely loved playing with our kids. Fantastic memories all round!
