We are driving down to the Orlando area on Noche Buena (Christmas Eve) to celebrate with my {very} Hispanic family like I’ve done just about every year of my life. We don’t do much but enjoy our gifts on Christmas Day so the big celebration for us to enjoy family and great food is on the 24th. We stay up until midnight (yup, even the kids!) and open the presents then.
The drive to my mom’s house is about 2.5 hours. Traveling for that long with a 3 year old and a 14 month old means we need to simplify our lives as much as possible and make sure they are both comfortable. So, I decided to make my baby girl something she could wear to the party that would still be cute but easy to wear and play in. I’ve matched it up with an “I love Santa” top we got her at a thrift store for $0.25 and voila! She’s good to wear this on the car ride down and all night long while she plays with her cousins, puppies and shreds her gifts to pieces. I don’t like my kids to wear restrictive, itchy and over-the-top dressy outfits. I prefer cotton and comfort. She is just a kid and needs to be able to run, jump, roll and whatever else she feels like doing in her clothes. So, I think I’ve found just the outfit for her!
I think she approves! |
Happy Holidays! |

Hope you enjoy your Christmas near Orlando. Have a safe drive as the traffic down here has been really hectic and crowded. I live about 45 min. from Orlando in the Tampa direction. We will be sharing Christmas with my husband’s family. P.S. I love your website.
