I DO NOT OWN ANYONE OR ANYTHING BESIDES THE OC'S.
Christmas Eve- 10 PM- Daisy's Point of View-
I've been having to do school work everyday including today, Rebecca said I don't have to do any tomorrow since it'll be Christmas. Jaxson was already asleep, Shawn and Rebecca let me buy him a couple of gifts, they allowed their kids buy a gift for him together and Shawn and Rebecca bought him a couple of gifts, I of course had to wrap them, I put them under the tree.
"I'm going to bed, it's my bed time." I said as I got off the ground from next to the tree.
"You want to stay up later and help finish wrapping these gifts and putting some of these gifts together?" Shawn asked.
"Sure." I said as I sat back down across from Shawn, I was helping him wrap and putting the toys together, Rebecca was getting some of the food ready to be cooked the next day.
"You want a cookie?" Shawn asked as he was eating at the cookies Cheyenne, Cameron, and I cooked the other day for Santa Claus while Rebecca and Shawn were out finishing up their Christmas shopping even though I thought they were all done with their Christmas shopping.
"Sure, thanks." I said taking a cookie off the plate taking a bite.
"You want some milk too?" Rebecca asked seeing this.
"Yes please." I said as Rebecca poured me some milk and brought it to me. Rebecca went to bed leaving Shawn and I to finish the wrapping and putting the toys together.
"So, how's your design coming?" Shawn asked as I handed him a piece of tape.
"Not so good, I haven't started, I don't even know where to begin." I said as I moved a strand of hair behind my ear.
"I'm sure you'll think of something, you have a few days still." Shawn said, we finished about 2 in the morning, it was Cheyenne's Barbie Dream house that was taking forever, it had like two or three levels, then we had to put the furniture in and what not.
"I'm going to bed." I said yawning.
"Well, the kids should be waking up in four hours." Shawn said as I helped him up to his feet.
"Alright night dad." I said as I hugged him and went back to my room, I climbed into bed relaxing, I looked over at a sleeping Jaxson, I fell asleep instantly and woke up literally four hours later like Shawn said by Cheyenne and Cameron jumped on my bed screaming 'It's Christmas!' I got up and I told them to go wait in their rooms until I got dressed, Shawn and Rebecca had a rule that everyone had to be up and dressed before they could go out into the living room. Before I came, the kids had to wait until Shawn or Rebecca came and got them, but since I'm here and I helped Shawn with the gifts I can go out there and wake them up without worrying about the kids seeing what they got. I got dressed in a pair of jeans and a red turtle neck, I pulled out a red and white velvet Santa suit thing for Jaxson to wear, I changed his diaper (he was already awake) and dressed him in it and I slid on black boots to match. I carried him out to the dining room setting him in his high chair, I walked to Shawn and Rebecca's door knocking on it.
"Yes?" A grumpy Shawn said.
"Cameron and Cheyenne are up and want to open their gifts." I said.
"Can you fix their breakfast and we'll be right out?" Rebecca asked.
"Sure." I said, I walked over to the kids room, and I covered their eyes with my hands walking them into the kitchen that is connected to the dining room. "Go sit down for me please, what do you want for breakfast?" I asked.
"Oatmeal!" They exclaimed in unison.
"What flavor?" I asked.
"Brown sugar." Cameron said.
"Apple cinnamon." Cheyenne said, I cooked the two bowls of oatmeal setting the oatmeal in front of them with two spoons, I made myself a bowl of cereal and I grabbed jar of baby food for Jaxson. I fed Jaxson one bite then I would take a bite of my cereal, Shawn and Rebecca emerged from their room half an hour later when we were just finishing our breakfast.
"Good morning kiddies, Merry Christmas!" Shawn said.
"Good morning daddy, did Santa come?" Cheyenne asked.
"Yes he did." Shawn said, Rebecca and Shawn each grabbed an apple and a cup of coffee.
"Who wants to open their stocking?" Rebecca asked as Cheyenne and Cameron raised their hands antsy.
"I do! I do!" They screamed, I grabbed our bowls and carried them to the sink washing them as Cheyenne and Cameron ran out to the living room and I heard some squeals. I went and grabbed Jaxson out of his high chair carrying him out to the living room setting him in his swing so he could drink his milk peacefully. I sat on the couch watching the two open their stockings.
"Aren't you going to open yours?" Shawn asked.
"I don't have one." I said.
"Look again." Shawn said, I looked back up at the fire place seeing another stocking hanging there that wasn't there last night when I went to bed.
"Are you serious?" I asked.
"Santa remembered you." Cheyenne said.
"Santa never forgets anybody." Cameron said I got up walking over to the stocking, it was filled with candy and it had Shawn Michael's book, and all the DVDs that involved Shawn, like the DX collection.
"Thanks." I said smiling as I grabbed a handful of candy to eat.
"Don't spoil your lunch." Rebecca said as Cheyenne had already ripped into her Barbie doll that was in her stocking, Cameron was looking through the gifts under the tree. Cameron played Santa Claus and we let the movie 'A Christmas Story' play on the television repeatedly. I bought Shawn a new Bible at the past church seminar he was complaining about his Bible was falling apart, I bought Rebecca a couple of cook books since she said she wanted to learn how to cook more dishes and more international meals, I bought Cheyenne Barbie's convertible, I bought Cameron a new baseball glove, and I bought Jaxson a few new toys and a few new outfits. Cameron got a lot of sports, action figures, and cars, Cheyenne got a lot of Barbie and ballerina things, Shawn got a new suitcase set and a new book to read, and Rebecca got a necklace and more books to add to her Nora Roberts collection.
"Daisy, Cameron and I got you this." Cheyenne said handing me a wrapped present.
"Thanks sis." I said as she handed it to me, I patted my leg for her to climb onto my lap, she sat on my lap as I opened my gift, it was a drawing pad with a set of pencils.
"Do you like it?" Cheyenne asked.
"Love it." I said.
"Look at the first page." Cameron said, I opened the drawing pad to the first page and there was a drawing of a house that had six stick figures standing in the yard.
"See that's mommy, that's daddy, that's you, that's Cameron, that's me, and that's Jaxson." Cheyenne said pointing at each stick figure.
"Aw, thanks you two." I said kissing her cheek and hugging her tightly, "Come here Cameron." I said as Cheyenne got off my lap and I hugged him and kissed his cheek as well.
"This is from us." Shawn said handing me something.
"You didn't have too." I said.
"You're a part of this family." Shawn said, I unwrapped it to a box.
"How much do I have to open to get to this gift?" I asked.
"I told him not to do it." Rebecca said as I opened the box and my present was wrapped with clear duct table and saran wrap so I could barely make out what it was and it was pretty impossible to open.
"Thanks for that." I said.
"What is it?" Cheyenne asked as Jaxson threw his bottle, I picked it up carrying it out to the kitchen putting it in the sink as I grabbed a set of scissors to cut this thing.
"What did you do to this?" I asked walking back out to the living room cutting it with the scissors, when I cut all the way through a set of keys fell out. "What's this for?" I asked picking it up.
"Keys." Shawn said.
"No duh, I know that, but there's three of them." I said.
"Give it here." Shawn said, I handed him the key ring that held the three keys. "This key goes to the house, this key goes to the van and this one goes to your own car."
"Excuse me what?" I asked.
"Go look in the garage." Shawn said tossing me the keys, I ran into the garage followed by Cheyenne and Cameron, there was a new Toyota Corolla, yeah it isn't a fancy nice car that most 15 or 16 year olds want, but it will get me around.
"Are you serious? I don't even have my license." I said in shock walking into the garage walking around the blue car that is mine.
"You start up on January 10th after your birthday." Rebecca said, my birthday is January 9th.
"THANK YOU!" I said hugging them and I climbed into the car looking at everything.
"The insurance is in our name, we figured that if Rebecca ever goes on tour with me or if your watching the kids and you need to take them to the hospital if anything happened you'll have a car to take." Shawn said leaning against the door.
"I love it." I said, I climbed out hugging Shawn and Rebecca, we went back inside the house. Rebecca went into the kitchen to start cooking for the big meal, Shawn was helping the kids move their toys back to their rooms and I was moving mine and Jaxson things back to our room putting them up, Shawn was playing with Jaxson on the ground. I went into the kitchen helping Rebecca with the dinner. "What do you need help with?" I asked.
"You can start making the macaroni and cheese for me." She said as I grabbed the box and started making it, I did the small things like the macaroni and cheese and mashed potatoes she did like the ham and such. We cooked dinner talking about work that I had to do tomorrow in school, when dinner was ready I walked out to get Shawn and Jaxson first, Shawn was laying on the ground with Jaxson laying on top of him both were zonked out.
"Mom, you have to see this." I whispered, Rebecca walked out and saw it, she giggled.
"Let me get the camera." She whispered, she went and grabbed the camera snapping a photo. I went and picked Jaxson up and lightly kicked Shawn.
"Time to wake up." I said as Shawn groaned and sat up.
"What time is it?" He asked.
"Time for dinner and after dinner, it's off to church we go." Rebecca said before she yelled down the hallway to the kids, "Kids, time to wash up for dinner." I carried Jaxson back to our room changing him and I washed his hands with baby wipes, then I took him out to the dining room table putting him in his high chair then I went and washed my own hands, I joined the family at the table. Rebecca said the grace, and Shawn cut the ham and set pieces on everyone's plates as I helped Rebecca pour the side dishes onto the little kids plates first. We ate dinner, the kids were excitedly talking about their new toys and what not, after dinner we washed up and went to church, I sat in the back with Jaxson as the others sat closer, I figured if he started crying it will be an easier escape to outside. We went home and it was off to bed we went.
