5 ways to get ready for Baby's 1st Christmas

We are getting ready for baby's first Christmas and even though he is still to small to recall we hope to make this holiday as special for him as he has made it for us...

1.Take some pictures for the memories:
Even though baby is to small to remember it will be super cool to look back and show him how tiny he actually was.



2. Put up the Tree:
After a challenging past few months i can finally say that we are getting in to the Christmas spirit.
Usually i would of gone festive crazy from the 1st of November but due to my brother being in  a car accident and hospitalized, us moving homes, and having a baby bump as big as a watermelon; Christmas prep was something that just did not feel quite right to get in to.
Luckily my brother is doing much better and hopefully soon we will have him in tip top shape and back home again. With faith in God and the Angels we wait patiently.

But now we have our Baby Boy to celebrate and this will be his 1st Christmas!!! So our this years humble tree has been put up and we now have our first family photo...



3. Make Baby's 1st Christmas ornament.
I made this one out of Polymer-clay; This decoration was made for my God-Son Sotiris who will also be celebrating his first Christmas. The S stands for Sotiris.



4. Play Christmas music.
Eve though baby can't remember events at this small age, baby can get accustomed to sounds and smells. So play your favorite Christmas songs for your baby. I really enjoy "Kenny G Christmas" and baby finds it soothing and actually falls asleep to it.


5. Festive Smells.
Same as sounds and music start filling your home with the festive smells. These smells will remind your baby of his home childhood for ever. So bake something festive, light a scented candle and drink tea with a cinnamon stick in it.
