Well, this will be our first Christmas as a family of 3. I will say, everything has felt more "Christmasy" this year as we get to share our favorite holiday and time of year with our favorite little girl! She is mobile now and will crawl over to the tree every chance she gets. Once there she looks at the lights, plays with the ornaments at her level (non-breakables of course) and pulls the bows off of the presents. The Christmas tree lights and ornaments are definitely her favorite. Her least favorite part, Santa. On Friday we dressed her up in one of her many Christmas outfits and headed out to the mall for that oh so important first picture with Santa. She looooved every part of our outing, except for the picture with the extremely realistic looking Santa (seriously one of the best Santa's I've ever seen). We went ahead and purchased the over-priced picture package because 1. we had to ( its her first christmas!) , and 2. her expression is AWESOME! I think she is smarter than the average 8 month old and realizes that sitting on a creepy old man's lap is not fun and NOT very Christmasy!
Here are a few pictures of Gracie in her cute little Christmas outfit. I know the bow is big, but seriously how cute is she?!
The skirt is so cute it makes me want to cry!
And here is the infamous Santa picture. Are you wondering what I am (is that the real Santa?
