Babies 1st Christmas

  It's the season to buy , buy , buy ! It's Christmas! I love Christmas and growing up it was always a huge deal in my house . My mom always made sure that the Christmas tree was full of things for us. It always makes me happy thinking about Christmas morning and my stocking and opening gifts with everyone. So this year having a little guy running around it just insane!! My excitement is just overload.

Larkin is turning 8 months old in a couple of days so it's not like he's really going to "get Christmas" but I still want to start some traditions. I will be taking him to see Santa! Some time within the next couple of weeks. But my main focus on this blog is going to be "what the heck do you buy an eight month old for Christmas?".

I really struggled with this at first but I think I found some handy gifts. 

1. The big present 

This is a Fisher Price elephant bounce stride and ride

It's available at walmart and the price goes up and down from 30-39$ 

I like this particular walker/rider because it does those things. Larkin is a very mobile baby and it's hard for him to sit still. He is always on the go so this will be great for him to learn to walk and for him also to bounce around. Other ones that I liked were called more "sit and push" or things like that and I feel like he would just not get use out of the sitting part. 

 2. BOOKS! 

Honestly reading at his age although important ,can be really boring. I like to read books to Larkin that I enjoy . Because If I'm interested and excited it's easier for him to hop on board. For example I love Monsters inc. so when I saw these half off at lowes I grabbed them. I also have picked up some books at Target Dollar Spot for stocking stuffers. 

3. Boy fun

Honestly these could be for a boy or a girl but larkin doesn't have any cars. I thought that these would be adorable for him to play with and maybe learn to push around. I love the B brand everything is always so cute. These are available at Target for $16. 

4. Clothes. 

I know boring. But he honestly needs so many clothes. Larkin was a big baby but I didn't think he would grow this fast this quick! He has just grown out of every size clothes. I feel like he was in size 6m for a week. He now regularly wears 12-18 month clothing. 9m pants are way too short. Also when I bought clothes ahead before he was born I didn't think he would be in winter clothes for 12 size so I have nothing. He has only a couple of long sleeve shirts. So on Black Friday Target had clothing 40% off and I got a ton of stuff. 

That's all I really have planned to buy him everything else is probably going to found on a shopping trip this weekend! Go ahead and tell me what you think he would like! 

Happy holidays!!
