Today was a lazy day for us, and a welcome one. Will slept through the night and we got to sleep late, too. We even spent the day in pajamas! Will's cough has diminished and his nose seems to be less runny, so he seems to be getting better (again). Once Will was awake, we brought him the living room, had breakfast, and opened his Christmas gifts. It was nice to see that he grabbed at some of the wrapping and pulled at it. It could just be a response to bright red paper, but it's a step in the right direction. After we opened all the remaining gifts, we tested Skype on the tablet computer, calling a friend in Florida. We chatted a bit and got used to aiming the computer and using both the front and back cameras.
Maggie cooked a tasty ham dinner with mashed potatoes, then we used Skype again to chat with my parents and tried to use it with my brother (but he was out, so we resorted to mobile phones). It was nice to give our thanks to everyone for their gifts quickly and to show Will using his new musical instruments: another toy guitar and a toy keyboard from Grammy and Grampy. My brother and his family got us an Apple iPod Touch which will be a nice replacement for my defunct planner and complement the iPad with apps for Will.
Tomorrow looms as Maggie reports for foot surgery at 6:00am, so it's time to get ourselves to bed and tackle cleaning our office/guest suite tomorrow when we get home. It's on the first floor, so we'll be sleeping there until Maggie feels comfortable with the stairs.
