Christmas Traditions...

Since our chidren are still young and each year seems to be a little different, we are still trying to figure out our "traditions" that we will have each year with our children.  In the past, we have always given the kids a pair of Christmas pajamas, a Christmas book, and an ornament on Christmas Eve.  However, I got the idea from someone else to give the Christmas pajamas on December 1st so they could enjoy them all month...so...this year, the kids first present came when they got out of the bath December 1st. 


 Presents ready and waiting on "clean" kiddos...


Sitting beside Anna Lauren's tree, which she decorated herself, and Cooper's Nutcracker...a little something for the girl and a little something for the boy...


I LOVE matching pajamas...Cooper has the boy version and Anna Lauren the girl version of Santa Claus pajamas...


What sweet kids to spend Christmas with...the chaos of Christmas makes it not one of my favorite times of the year, but then I look at these two and am reminded it is all worth the stress!



The sweet little man, who by the way, is walking at 14 months...for some reason, I failed to do the "walking post"...he played around and thought about walking from 12 to 14 months, but now we can say, he is for sure walking!  And if you cannot tell, he also has his first of many black eyes...all boy for sure!
