Travis's pov We wake up on christmas eve morning. I go to Emmi's bed and sit on it next to her and start rubbing her back to wake her up. ( we moved her bed and necessitates into our room when she was sick). She rubs her eyes and whines because she is not a morning person. It's Christmas Eve morning . I tell her and she makes grabby hands at me, so I smile at her pick her up give her her stitch and put her stitch blanket on top of her back and grab her stitch cup and bring her to the recliner. I put on the Christmas music and start rocking her and rubbing her back. Taylor's POV Im making a big breakfast for everyone since it is Christmas Eve and I go to greet Emmi and Travis. How are you feeling baby? I ask her as I kiss both their heads. Tired. She mumbles and lays back down on Travis. After I finish setting the table , Jason,Kylie and the girls come down. They hug their uncle Trav and Emmi first then they hug me. How is she today? Jason and Kylie ask. She's tired and extra clingy today so let's leave the tree on to hopefully keep her relax. Travis pov Jason , Kylie and the girls come down and sit at the table for breakfast after saying hi to us and Taylor. I sit at the table with Emmi in my lap. She rubs her eyes and looks around the table and sees the big breakfast and her breathing starts picking up and she starts crying. Hey hey hey girlie shhhh take a deep breath you don't have to eat such a big meal. We know you're getting over being sick. Taylor figured she would be this way and made her a small fruit bowl for her to pick at. Baby I didn't think you were going to want anything heavy so I made you a small fruit bowl in your stitch bowl, eat as much as you want. Taylor says and kisses her head. I pick out the strawberries because those are her favorite. She pushes the bowl away. Leans back into me and looks tired again. Jason's pov After the girls are done eating, they want to play. Daddy can we go play? They ask yes but please play quietly Emmi still isn't feeling the greatest. Ok they go over to Emmi and hug her and tell her to feel better. They run off to go play. Emmi is it ok if I hold you so daddy can eat ? I ask her she looks at me the back at Travis looking for reassurance. Go ahead baby he tells Emmi. Emmi's making grabby hands at me so I take her over to the recliner and frosty the snowman is about to start which is her favorite Christmas movie. I DVR the movie because she looks like she's ready for a nap. Don't fight the sleep Girlie . Go to sleep I recorded the movie we can watch it again when she wakes up. Travis's pov I finish eating and I look up as see Emmi is asleep on Jason. I smile take Emmi over the couch and lay with her. I play with her hair and rub her back. She stirs little and wakes up hey Girlie how are feeling do you want to sleep more or watch Frosty? Watch Frosty she said quietly . I put the movie back on and she perks up when she sees frosty on the screen . It's Frosty daddy ! She squeals. It seems like her energy is coming back a little. Taylor's pov It is now lunch time I made everyone sandwich's but for Emmi I just made her two pieces of toast and butter. Travis brings her she looks a little more awake now. I feel her forehead no fever thank goodness I say. Everyone finishes eating and we all go to the couch and put on the Christmas music . Wyatt and Ellie are signing a long while they play quietly but Emmi is glued to Trav. How are you feeling baby ? I ask her. Ok I guess. She not exhausted but not energetic either Trav says. Travis's pov We are sitting around and just relaxing and Emmi looks up at me with puppy dog eyes. What's wrong girlie? I ask her. I'm tired again. She said almost in tears. It's ok go to sleep. Daddy's got you. I tell her as I rub her back. Tay what's the plan for tonight? I was thinking maybe doing some presents after dinner then making some cookies and then getting ready for bed. Jason's pov It seems like Emmi is catching up on sleep but what if she has trouble going to sleep tonight? I asked Trav. Well after dinner I will try to keep her awake hopefully the presents will help a little. Said Travis. Daddy Wyatt comes up to me, and I put her in my lap. What's up girlie? Is Emmi ok ? She ask, yea it's taking her a little bit to get over being sick. Oh ok, um daddy ... Emmi's crying. What? I say and look over and I see Travis look down at her to. Trav I think Emmi's having a nightmare. I tell him. Travis's pov Emmi wake up girlie. She shoots up breathing fast and crying. Hey hey it's ok it was just a bad dream it's not real follow my breathing. She calms down and looks around frantically so I give her stitch and cuddle her tightly and rub her back until she calms down. Once's she calm i ask her what she wanted to do. I don't know she says very overwhelmed. A little later I hear Emmi humming one of Taylor's songs , do you wanna play mommy's cd's. Yea I wanna go in order. Ok we put Taylor Swift on her cd player and Taylor is playing her guitar along while she sings Kylie's pov The girls come running when they hear Taylor's guitar and they plop on to Jason's lap. I don't think I ever heard Emmi sing before. She has an angelic voice just like Taylor. By the time they finish through the first album, it's time for dinner. We order pizza and chicken tenders. We got three kids tenders for the girls. Emmi looks a little scared though. Taylor's pov Emmi baby I know you're scared to eat still but at least try to eat 1 whole tender and if you can't it's ok. She can only eat half a tender but that's ok shall we do our presents now. I ask everyone once we are done with dinner. I have each girl the same size box. New pjs and the girls scream except for Emmi ,she's quietly excited.

These are Ellie's pajamas. Time for showers. Who is going first? I ask. Emmi will be first so she can wind down and relax.Ellie looks at Kylie scared. Baby what's wrong ? I ask. The last time she took a shower was when she was sick and got dizzy in the shower, she's scared it's going to happen again. Ok so Wyatt and Ellie's can get in the shower first. While we sort this out.
