Very Merry Christmas!
Hey loves, here is my "Christmas in pictures post", hope you had a beautiful, peaceful and magical Christmas with your loved ones, We had a quite (what you can call "quiet" for a family of 5) Christmas time at our home, it is a special time when the kids are little and still believe in Santa Claus (at least the 2 little ones) So it was a lot of fun!
I am sharing with you my favorite pictures and memories and also I am trying to link as much as possible of the clothes that we wear for the occasion, most of the presents, toys, recipes, etc. I hope you like them and give you some ideas for the next year.
May this be a time for love, hope, and celebration!
Our Christmas Card
I ordered our Christmas card from Target Photo Studio, I think it is an adorable memory I will treasure forever.
My Girl's Looks
Since you know, this year I got a "little bit" of a Buffalo Plaid obsession here,
my girls had to match dresses!

Dinner Time
Turkey, yes, we can't get enough of Turkey, we had it for Thanksgiving and here it is again, If you are looking for a great basic and classic turkey recipe I suggest you check the Martha Stewart Recipe, I follow it from many years ago and it is one of my favorites, but this years dinner's sensation was absolutely the "tartiflette" I just learned to make it from Entertaining with Beth, I made it for a couple of Christmas Parties and it was a total hit, you MUST try it!
PS: It has Bacon!
My look
I totally loved this year playing with different Holiday looks (you need to see them in previous posts here in my Blog) or in My Instagram Account! #CafeConNattaNow for Christmas Eve, following my Plaid theme of this year, I got a cute bubble dress from Shein, this cute little dress was sweet and inexpensive and combined with my awesome high knee brown boots and a belt was one of my favorite Christmas looks!
Pajama's for our Christmas Card
Making our Christmas card is always fun, this year, of course, was super sweet, I decided to go for pajamas, the ones we wear for a fun pajama Christmas party and also for the Christmas morning.
My girls looked adorable matching their Buffalo plaid looks.

Christmas Eve Traditions
Every year is super excited to see my girls getting into the Christmas spirit and one of our favorite traditions is to bake cookies for Santa and leave them with a cold glass of milk and also our reindeer food, also this year our adorable Pre-K teacher sent Stellita a "Magic SLeeping Potion" I can not tell you how much I loved this!, we made it and hen we went right to bed! (the magic potions really worked for them)
Christmas Morning Joy
The morning of Christmas my girls couldn't wait to come downstairs and check if Santa came to our home, and of course, he did! They found all their presents around the Christmas tree, their little faces lighting up when they saw the living room was priceless and the toys and presents are part of our family now. Check some of the present's links below
The Melissa & Dough Food Truck was a total hit for my 2 little ones, I personally love toys that can help their imagination fly, and playing pretend in my house is one of my favorite activities to watch and even play along with them, they are selling their ice cream at $50.00 the cone, not but for these future business women to start their enterprises!
Melissa and Dough Icecream set was a must to use with our Food truck and we also got the Melissa & Dough Pasta kit, mama mía!
Next Generation dolls, they got some last year and 2 more this year, we love them, so happy to include more this time.
I found good price dolls! ($18.00 at Target and HomeGoods)

My oldest girl is a big fan of "Takis" not the most healthiest choice but a treat for Christmas!
My baby girl loves her security blankets so it was time to update her old ones and get her a new "unicorn-rattle little blanket" found this one on HomeGoods but I saw many similar here or here
For staking stuffers we got some Kids face masks, candy, of course, some hair brushes, hairspray, toothbrushes, baby LOL dolls (lil sisters), some LOL Shampoo, JoJo bows and fake nails with stickers!
Our generation car was just adorable, I had to almost "Fight" with other mom for it at the store when I saw it was the last one I jumped to it! lol, everyone at the checking line was "Awww" and "Oohhh" on me, I think it is just perfect! (found mine at HomeGoods for only $50.00)
LOL dolls were on the Santa Claus Letters so, here they are, we got few of them and other LOL items like these lunch bags with puzzles and LOL clothes that my dear friends sent them from New York, we are just starting our new LOL collection.
Sophie being my oldest one, didn't ask for toys this year, but instead she got lucky with clothes and accessories like this glitter purse, this sherpa jacket, these snow boots, this unicorn sleeping set (similar to this one), a set of Bath Balls, a gues leather backpack similar to this one and van shoes and cute clothes. Some presents are from Santa and some from her very generous godparents (my lucky girl)
Our dolls obsession is growing and we also added next to the car this Our generation motorcycle that is just adorable, I found ours at Homegoods (great for toys at this time) for only $25.00 a super good deal, don't forget to check out these type of discount stores on Christmas time.
My girls got very lucky when a dear friend of mine asked me if they would like a Vintage dollhouse? I immediately replied YES!, we had a dollhouse (Barbie Size) before but we had to throw it away when they decided that the house was meant for them to be inside Lol.
This adorable house is a hit too, even I want to play with it and the cute mini furniture.
Thanks, dear Laurie :)
Our Favorite Santa Claus
Last but not least, every year, our very own Santa Claus comes to visit my girls to play and talk to them and even brush their teeth before bed! How lucky are we?
My babies love to pull off his white bear and say: You are not real!! You are our daddy!!
It was a great idea to get this costume from Target when a previous Christmas was over and this cute suit was at only $15.00, Worth every penny!
Santa was sweet enough to get me an awesome Leopard jacket (Similar here, here or here) and this cool snow boots, similar here that I can't wait to use during this Winter time!
Thanks, Santa Baby!
And so, this was our Christmas 2018, another sweet memorable time to keep and treasure in my heart forever and ever and I am very happy I can share with you to inspire or give ideas.
Thanks so much for coming to my blog and don't forget to check my social media accounts for daily updates of my crazy and busy life with 3 girls!
Merry Christmas
