I help take care of her and I play with her, when I am done cleaning or I take a break and make noises with her.

 I am getting to spend Christmas this year with my nieces and nephews, which is a first for me as they are in a different country so I am looking forward to that. I guess it is hard at Christmas not getting to see all your family, but cherish the moments you do have with her, I only get to see mine a couple off times a year if I am lucky. As the others said have another day over the holidays which you can celebrate with her. Grandparents I guess are different to aunts and uncles.

 Why don't you pick another day during the Xmas period to make your "Special Day" with your niece? Then treat that as "your" Xmas Day and have all the normal fun, just on a different day.
Many separated parents have to do this if children cannot visit both on Xmas Day and it seems to work well.

 Sorry Grandparents usually "trumps" aunt/uncles in the holiday priorities.
Doesn't mean you can do something special with her BEFORE or after Christmas, does it? From what I can glean she is rather little and Christmas isn't necessarily ONE day only.
