Christmas iHop Tradition

  
As usual, Linda looks washed out (She did just finish teaching 3 classes though)

Our baby is due in just 3 months!

It would not be Christmas without the traditional iHop Christmas brunch.  Since Linda worked, they could not do it in the morning, so they met at 1:30.   It's been going on for over 10 years now, she does not remember the exact year it started.  It's always a time of laughs and crazy shenanigans.  Tier always gets chocolate chip pancakes and then tries to barter bites for other peoples food.  Taylor eats a huge giant breakfast with all the sides.  Sarah is the back-to-basic eater skipping the toast and pancakes and just going with the eggs.  Linda broke tradition and got one of the under 600 calories breakfast with egg whites and 2 harvest pancakes.  She usually gets a sliced banana and a bagel but decided to go all out this time since it was her first meal of the day and she was starving.  She was a little sad that the blow-up, life-size Santa wasn't in the lobby like last year.  There will be lots more photos tonight when Linda goes to Taylor and Sarah's townhouse to open presents.  Linda said she is going to put a ton of makeup on so she does not look bland sitting next to Tier.
