Hello and welcome back!
Before I start I know Christmas was months ago now but I thought I’d already posted this 😂(unorganised blogging)
Now don’t get me wrong I LOVED Esme’s first christmas it was lovely and we all enjoyed it but there was something missing…. the excitement and the magic!
But this year was amazing ! Her first christmas she was only six months she wasn’t interested in toys much and didn’t have a clue what was going on . This year however she loved playing with her toys ! also it was Aarons first time not working on Christmas Day which was lovely and made this christmas even more special.
We

knew on the run up to christmas as she was getting more and more interested in toys and showing interests in certain films and shows ( like her sudden obssesion for trolls and frozen that we have now watched about 1,000 times ) that this christmas she would be so excited to see certain toys which made us even more excited to see her open them which was something we didn’t get to experience last year because she was so young .
Waiting for christmas to come just to see the surprise and excitement on Esme’s face was so exciting it made christmas a lot more magical than last year . Everyone always says christmas is for the children but I was more excited than she was to see her play with her new toys ! The massive smile on her face and the hugs all day even though she didn’t understand what was going on and at times you could see she was overwhelmed and just needed some time to chill and play with what she had already opened meaning that some presents didn’t get opened until Boxing Day .All day she kept hugging us and babbling away while playing with her toy kitchen , it was so much fun to watch and all the family enjoyed being a part of it.
Everyone always makes a big deal about “babies first christmas” and don’t get me wrong celebrating your babies first christmas is important but as they grow older each christmas will be more and more magical and I can’t wait for next christmas to be just as magical as this one x
