christmas tree.

November 30th 2011

on saturday we fell in love
with a tiny christmas tree at eastern market.
so we brought her home to camp out
in our living room for the next month or so.
she’s very colorful and sparkly.
eleanor can’t stop reaching for her and giggling.
merry christmas!

    we got a little tree too. its cute. reminds me of charlie brown.

    and eleanor and rinah can match with their hats. too cute.

  15. After 'fluffing' the second christmas tree last night, I told my husband, once the lights on these prelit trees die, we are so going back to getting a real tree. No fluffing needed!

  16. Eleanor's eyes are stunning in that first picture! What a pretty stare she has.

  18. Such a fun little family adventure!! I love your Husbands outfit. E's hat and your style!

    How fun!

    ok are you going to consider having E being a baby model…she's just too darling…

  28. Love your small Christmas tree! Your family looks so cute picking one out. Eleanor is the cutest!

  29. oh my gosh, her hat. i die.

  30. I remember the Babby's first Christmas tree, all decked out with the least breakable ornaments (on this year's tree, too). We decided to go for faux because we were (are) still afraid of her pulling it over.

  31. WONDERFUL!!! Her eyes lit up in the first picture? Magical

  33. Shannon

    So jealous of your real Christmas tree! My boyfriend has deemed a real tree too much of a fire hazard for our old, old house. :( I miss the smell of them.

  34. i am amazed by her eyes. but also her hat. and her tights. and just her wardrobe in general.

  35. aislin

    hmmm. could your family be ANY cuter? nope. don't think so! yay for christmas time!

  36. so cute! xo

    I'm loving the trees at Eastern Market. It's like a mini forest has sprung up in the middle of our urban neighborhood. :)

    I love Eleanor's sparkly eyes. She is an absolute beauty. What an adorable family you have. I love your sweet inspiring blog. I have a 10 month old little boy. Maybe one day they can meet and fall in love? Im sure it would work out swimmingly. :)
