Have you chosen LO's Christmas/holiday outfit(s) yet?
I'm of course taking some photos of my own, but we also have a mini-session scheduled with my photographer friend and I want to have two different outfits because I'll likely use more than one picture for our card.
If you haven't officially decided yet, any ideas?
Re: BWLO: Christmas Outfits
We have this outfit that we'll probably use for something- maybe an updated family picture.
And I'm thinking about some sort of sweater vest for his official pics:
I like this one but I would prefer more red... so maybe a red plaid shirt underneath instead of white.
Our crazy, wonderful life
We can't make any real plans for Christmas so I didn't want to spend a lot on outfits this year. I found a really cute grey dress with black trim for Alex at a consignment shop for $2, and I'm going to get some Christmas-y tights, and use some hairbows to add color. She also has a hand-me-down holiday jumper that's pretty generic, red courd with gingerbread men or black dogs on it, I don't even remember becasue they all look the same. I may use that at some point since we have so much family to visit.
For the baby I just picked up a three piece cotton onsie/pants/sweater in NB size. I'm not sure when she'll make her appearance, so I didn't want to spend a lot. Hopefully she can wear it. If not, I'm only out $2 on that one too.
We're doing our holiday photos next weekend, so I've already bought C's. For family photos, DH and I are wearing red sweaters with kackis and C will be wearing a red sweater romper from the Gap.
And I ordered this hat, diaper cover and leggings for a few photos by himself:

I don't think we'll do any kind of family picture or even pictures of Kodi so I haven't even thought about Christmas outfits. But I did buy two Christmasy sleepers for the baby since she'll be here the 22nd and will hopefully be home for Christmas. I'll probably put Kodi in something red and take a few snapshots of him with his sister.
I bought this one from Osh Kosh, it has little snowflakes on it. I'm going to try to make a knit hat too.
The other sleeper is a red fleece sleeper with snowflakes on it from Walmart, I can't find a picture of it.

We have a ton. A TON. The first grandchild on my side, plus my shopping habit... I have one that she's already outgrown. My mom bought 4, I had 2. She'll have an outfit for every Christmas party.

Cut the Crap - Weight loss journey of a Few Fat Chicks
I am headed to the outlets this weekend, and plan to look for a red or cream sweater vest, and coordinating plaid shirt. Or maybe just a zip up sweater, if I find something. Liam already has navy and khaki pants so I want to coordinate with those.
