Was your lo's first Christmas everything you thought it would be? If you could have changed one thing, what would it be?

Yes, it was everything I had hoped for except LO is teething so he wasn't a very happy camper today :[. I would have liked to get together with family as well but the only relatives we have that live close to us are out if town on vacation. But all in all, it was great. Definitely a day to remember.

We had a nice morning, opened some gifts and played with our new toys.
If I could change one thing it would be to be with family. Our families are all over the place, I'm a bit jealous of those that get to spend holidays together.

Yes, it was great! A really fabulous day and he was awesome throughout. No fussing, took naps, laughed, and otherwise looked cute. I'm sure that means we are in for it tonight, lol.

Had a wonderful day! We had Christmas with the whole family on sunday, as we are all at work or on call yesterday and today.  Today was relaxing. Slept in for the first time in a long time! DH got the baby up, fed, dressed, and they were playing with her new toys when I finall got up! Woohoo!

It was such a great day! She was really fussy yesterday, so I was a little concerned. But she slept great last night and was a happy girl all day! We had a great time with both our familes. I however have an awful cold and am super sick so that was the only bummer.

Yup! It was perfect I wouldn't change anything! She was super cute and excited about all her gifts and did really well missing naps and being up past her bedtime. My mom totally went overboard but hey Dagny is the only grand kid on my side! DH and I are now enjoying wine and a movie and DH's work was closed for tomorrow because we are under a blizzard warning! So that made the day even better that he will get to be home with us tomorrow!!

It was pretty good but it went by fast.  Our drive back to my moms was horrible and an extra 4 hours of driving for 10 total,  I would have changed that.  It was great to have Christmas Eve to ourselves.  I miss time with my DH so that was perfect.

It was pretty good, just wish DH had off from work this year. Oh well though, maybe next year. Such is the life of the wife of a cop.

It was wonderful. She was spoiled with everyone's attention and very nice gifts. She was so good last night and today.... quiet through mass, slept 7 hours straight, so happy all day and let everyone hold her.
I would change the amount of hours in the day, I could use an extra couple now!

It was great! She tried to rip open her presents, so that was fun. She also tried to eat the turkey leg and kept grabbing for everyone's food. The only thing I'd change would be a little less MIL time, as she drives me bananas. It's 9:30 and she just left. She got here at one.

It was pretty good. I wish it would have been the year that we spend with my side of the family and I would have love to see my sisters kids open their presents too today. I can't get every year with them, my family is about 3 hours away and my husband's is only 10 minutes away.

We had an amazing day...DS slept until 7:30 and we had breakfast/opened presents as a family of 3. We lounged around for awhile and then went to visit my parents for brunch and then DH's parents for an early dinner. DS was VERY spoiled this year (and so were we hehe)...now to find places to put all of his new toys in our apartment!

The best thing was getting to spend last night and today with our families...last night was fun because my mom cooks a big Christmas Eve dinner (my sister's 30th birthday was also last night), and it snowed!

I loved dd's first Christmas. I didn't have expectations, so things turned out great. I was tickled that her favorite toy (so far) from today is the simple taggy ball that I made her. I've always wanted to make homemade gifts for my children, so I'm glad I pulled off a success for her first Christmas.

If I could change one thing, I would have loved for dd to be interested in the lights on the tree. I had visions of her being mesmerized by them, but in reality she couldn't have cared less.

yes, it was pretty nice, but exhausting.  family was around but it  seemed like 1 always was fussing or needed a diaper/clothing change/bottle.

i wish i took more pictures of them.

It was a great day. Same as always, just with a baby. If I could change anything, I would have not had her teething. She's been quite fussy which is very unlike her.
