Finally, the holiday recap. Miss Lexi looked like a doll for our Christmas photo! She was not feeling well when we took these pictures but you would never know. I found her outfit at Janie and Jack... I couldn't resist this sweet dress.
The photo shoot ended shortly after she spotted the ornaments behind her. There was no going back...
We met Santa at the Greenwich Reindeer Festival. Of course Lexi fell asleep in the car just before we got there. Given the special circumstances I didn't want to wake her from her nap and be cranky... so Ted and I sat in the car for almost an hour haha. Welcome to parenthood. (Spoiler: She didn't look at Santa before sitting on his lap... that's why she looks so happy.)
Napkins: Lettermade. Mugs: Pottery Barn.
Skillets: Lodge.
I'm highlighting the best parts of the meal.. drinks and dessert. We actually made exactly what I did a few years ago (because we can't mess it up) and followed with Ina Garden's Skillet Brownies.
These Stuart Weitzman Highland boots were an early Christmas present for myself. I was always afraid that they wouldn't work for me because I'm only 5'2" but once I tried them on (and at least a portion of my leg wasn't covered) I had to have them. I was lucky to have a no exclusions coupon and couldn't pass up the opportunity to get them on sale. Sadly I don't think I will be wearing them much now that there is snow on the ground...taking no chances.
Flutes: Juliska.
Obviously this one was on the nice list as she made out very, very well with the presents. Her favorite was the plaid wrapping paper.
Hope you enjoyed the holidays as much as we did!
What a perfect holiday! Love that family photo of you three! xo, Biana - BlovedBoston

Thank you! The tote is from LL Bean and I had it monogrammed by someone local.
