I am beyond excited for Christmas this year. I’ve never really been bothered before, but now I’m a mom I feel a whole different way towards it.

I’ve already started buying decorations, and even some of carters gifts! But what is there to get a baby that’ll be 8 months old? It’s such a struggle! I don’t want to get him over the top gifts when he probably won’t have a clue what they are, but I don’t want him not to have anything…

One of the things I’m most looking forward to is seeing Santa! We’ve decided to take Carter to see Santa a few days before Christmas, and I couldn’t be more excited! I can’t wait to get a photo (as you know, I love taking photos of him!)

There’s so many aspects of Christmas to look forward to. The look on friends and families face once they open gifts, the lights, the pretty tree, the decorations, the music! I’m getting excited writing about it! I’m currently on a spending ban for Christmas decorations because I can’t seem to stop buying them!

This year, we will be celebrating carters 1st Christmas, hopefully we will manage to see all the families on the day, it’ll be so busy but I cannot wait!

What did you all get your babies for their first Christmas? I’m thinking noisy toys and a ball pit! Who knows what Santa will bring!
