Decking Lola's Halls

I can't believe it's the week of Christmas already! Our baby girls FIRST Christmas. It feels so much more magical this year, even though she isn't old enough to open presents, eat cookies, or even know whats going on. There's something about your baby's first Christmas that hits you right in ALL THE FEELS. 

 I have ALWAYS wanted to get a real tree for Christmas. I grew up getting a real tree every year. Well Chuck is Mr. Don't-Kill-Trees-If-You-Don't-Have-To, so we use a fake tree every year. He had a great idea on how we could make this year special for her. We chose to get a smaller balled blue spruce, and put it in her room for this Christmas. We're going to plant it in our front yard after the holidays and decorate it every year with her for Christmas, so she will always remember it was her First Christmas Tree. (He's SUCH a softy, and I love it)

So here is Lola's room, all decked out for Christmas! Since we spend most of our time in here anyway, I thought it should be decorated the MOST!

 

And here is her "first ornament" daddy surprised us with, when mommy couldn't find a "Baby's First Christmas" ornament anywhere she liked.  It is SO perfect for her.

Hope you all have a VERY MERRY CHRISTMAS!
