Synopsis
With a new baby on the way, Doug's family is too busy to have a traditional Christmas and Doug really wants one. So Doug and Porkchop decide to have their own secret holiday celebration in his room. But when he later finds the house completely empty, Mr. Funnie phones with news, and Doug and Judy's baby sister, Cleopatra "Dirtbike" Funnie, is born on Christmas Day. Meanwhile, Fentruck tells all his friends how they spend Christmas in Yakestonia.
