First Christmas Eve in Our New House

One tradition we wanted to start was reading Christmas books the night before. Eventually this might turn into watching a Christmas movie too, but for now we are keeping it simple. Even Brooklyn wanted to join in! This book is called Christmas Came to Louisiana. It was long but fun to read.



(Still need to learn how to take good pictures of the Christmas tree!)


Then we opened a gift that Grandmommy sent with us for Abigail, specifically for Christmas Eve.





Juliette had to help. If I haven't introduced her, she's Abby's favorite friend. She was picked out at Ikea above all other dolls. Most people think she's creepy, but I think she's funny and I love how Abby makes her dance and kisses her.



The gift was a 'My First Christmas' outfit, PJs for that night- another tradition is wearing semi-matching PJs, and an ornament with her full name. I love special ornaments!


After we put Abigial down, Bean had to help Santa get one of her gifts put together.
