Christmas in the South, Y'all

Preppy stocking for BabyGirl

Thoughts?

I'm in love.

Her Daddy, now not a lot.

Both of our households maintain the lifestyle of 1 stocking in keeping with infant.

Period.

We're not a get a brand new stocking each yr or change it up to suit this 12 months's decor kind of human beings.

Which approach this stocking has to ultimate her a lifetime of Santa stuffing and Matthew thinks it is too juvenile for the longer term.

I'd say I agree completely, besides my stocking at my parents residence is blanketed in teddy bears and I can virtually say I still happily be given all treats tucked inner.

Here's where I start the use of my oh-so-logical questioning.

My mother is having a brand new stocking made for BabyGirl to hold on her mantle for all time.

Meanwhile, Matthew and I even have two units of stocking pairs on our very own mantle that technically do suit our Christmas shade scheme of sparkly silver, gold, and white.

I was hoping to pick out up another of our authentic Pottery Barn white velvet with diamond sparkles somewhere online however can't discover any everywhere.

This would not match in any respect.

See how I want to bend the regulations.

So I'm questioning this stocking may want to move someplace unique in BabyGirl's room more as a ornament than her professional stocking.

And just in case the ones of you with child boy's are within the identical stocking predicament...

Our expensive Ms. Kelly does no longer disappoint

UPDATE: SADLY THIS ITEM IS OUT OF STOCK.

I'VE WAITED TOO LONG

OH SNAP

OKAY, ENOUGH WHINING...

And on to some snap shots of my house all dressed up for Baby Jesus' Birthday.

Dear little eight pound 6 ounce infant Jesus, new born, now not even spoken a phrase but...

It's really not anything mind-blowing.

I'm too exhausted by the time BabyGirl goes to mattress to actually get in the spirit.

But I can't let her first Christmas pass omitted in our home both.

That just wouldn't be proper.

I have about 10 boxes, no really, of holiday decor that I was just too tired to put up this year.

Last yr I became pregnant, inside the beginning of the dreaded first trimester, and my candy mom-in-law must have felt sorry for me and my lack of electricity and volunteered to decorate my residence.

It turned into first-rate.

Matthew and I threw an first-rate and really grown up cocktail party besides.

Sadly, I turned into too ill to enjoy it or take any pictures.

This year I determined to take pictures as I pass along just in case I'm too lazy to do it while the complete house is subsequently festive.

I love placing those glittery snowflakes on my lamps, it adds a bit of sparkle!

Okay, here's what I was talking about with the two sets of stockings.

If anyone has one or two of these Pottery Barn stockings they'd like to give sell me just send me an email. I'd love to have one for BabyGirl and for SweetBoy.

I'm additionally searching out any other of the PotteryBarn silver decoration stocking holders

Please excuse my horrid window remedies.

I hate how low they're hung and the shortage of proper rods.

I have no excuse except that I don't know what I really want yet in the way of fabrics and my husband refused to step foot in the room until the windows were covered. He's very concerned the neighbors can see in.And watch us reading magazines in our sweatpants I suppose.
