The Most Wonderful Time of Year (or is it?)

Christmas use to be my favorite time of year and I'd go all out crazy decorating with my totes and boxes of Christmas decorations. I thought having a little one would make me even more in the Christmas spirit. The 1st Christmas was great and I looked forward to her getting older and understanding what was going on. Unfortunately, there was some personal issues last year that made Christmas hard to get through and now this year I keep thinking back. My daughter is 3 so I'm really trying to put all my sadness in a bottle and focus on her excitement, which there is a lot of!

I never had Christmas traditions growing up and so I've started some that I hope to continue every year. The first one is Christmas books. I love reading and so far, my daughter is following along in my "book" prints. So I wrapped 23 Christmas books and put them in a basket under the tree. Each night before bed she gets to choose one to unwrap and have read. On Christmas Eve she will get a gift with Christmas PJ's, a Christmas movie and popcorn.

What kind of Christmas Traditions did you have growing up?
Do you still do any of them today?
