St. Nicholas and the Christmas Jammies

Last year, we started a Christmas tradition  of buying fun holiday jammies and a Christmas book for BB.  

I loved this, but when you wait to open this present until Christmas Eve, you don't get to wear those jammies near enough.  

So...this year, I decided that we would celebrate the Feast of Saint Nicholas with the Christmas jammies and book.  That way, not only do we get lots of use for our gifts during the holiday season, but we also celebrate a Saint who was known for gift giving.

 

This year, we went with a deer theme for the Christmas jammies for both BB and LL.  We went with a sure-fire hit for the book: Tractor Mac Saves Christmas.

BB was quite excited to finally get to open one of the presents he has been eying under the tree.

 

 

 

 

BB immediately headed right for Dad's lap with his book to hear the story.

 

And then, the new Christmas jammies were put on and Mom insisted on some pictures. 

 


 
 
This is one of my favorite traditions and I cannot wait to continue it in the years to come. 

Saint Nicholas, pray for us!
