Ornaments

If you buy LO an ornament each year, have you decided on one yet? Please share what you like.

I can't decide if I should do a hippo for James (birthday theme and his stuffie that goes everywhere with him) or a soccer ornament (he played on a team for the first time). Leo is getting a Fox (halloween costume and his room theme) but there are so many cute fox options!

Last year I got Ethan a train and Maya got an M&M (to commemorate PTing, lol). This year I bought Maya a tiara from PBK, but I can't figure out what to get Ethan. His biggest love is still trains. I'm working on it.

@hmp1‌ I think you should get him a bike, how many 3year olds can ride a two wheeler?

My mom gets one for Sage. Usually the Hallmark one. I'm boring.

We buy an Elmo ornament every year for Ethan.  There was a girl on the tri boards with me whose son got cancer and died.  He loved Elmo.  It was close to Christmas time, so a lot of people got an Elmo ornament and showed the mom.  I've kept buying them.

Nothing for Sean.  I'm really bad at remembering to do stuff every year.

ETA: I'm a dork.  We get the boys an ornament from Disney every year.  Originally I was getting Ethan's name and the year engraved on them, but they didn't do that the last couple years.  Last year the boys each got to pick their own, so we will probably do that again.

We do ornaments every year, but not sure what I'm getting yet. I usually just keep my eyes open as I'm out and about and see what moves me.

Since he was born I've gotten a personalized one with the date and list of his "Favorite Things." I did that again this year. Next year we'll pick one out that is more specific. It's kind of fun to look back on his last two and compare.

Emma is getting a One Direction ornament. My little girl is growing up!

I'm going to get Beckett a chess piece ornament because he loves chess.

Sawyer will be Frozen, Sofia the First or Doc McStuffins.

Lennon's will be a my first Christmas ornament of some sort.

I think I'm going to get Beb ballet shoes because she started ballet and loves it.
The baby will get her my first Christmas ornament.

I just found the most amazingly tacky plastic ornament that James would love. Hmmm, not sure I can do it though.

You spin the handle in the front to make Santa pedal and the wheels turn.

And there is a trampoline one I could get for Leo, lol

I just ordered. I went cutesy with hand embroidered stuffed ornaments from ETSY. James a bike and Leo a boy on a scooter. I'll post on IG when they come in!

We do the same theme every year.  It is what my mom did for me.  Mine were carousel horses, so I have a ton of carousel horse ornaments.  We did stars for Luci, so every year she gets a new star.

I picked up a Disney ornament while we were there in October. She had a Minnie B-day and we went to Disney, so I think that is good for the year.

DD's current obsession is kitties, so I may go that direction. My mom gave her a cat stuffed animal a few weeks ago and she carries it everywhere saying 'mow'.

I love all these ideas. It sort of makes me wish I had my s together!
