Our family Christmas photos ~ (& shopping for what to wear for holiday photos)

I participated in an Influencer Program on behalf of Mom Central Consulting for OshKosh B’gosh. I received a gift card to facilitate my shopping trip and to thank me for participating.  I love this brand because it holds up to our active boys, so I knew that you would, too!

I love to get our Christmas photos taken.  If you read yesterday’s post on 20 free Christmas gifts you probably read how much I love Christmas!

When it comes to photos, I am a sucker for all things Christmas!  I love the pajama photos, the casual outdoor photos  by pine trees, the playing in the snow Christmas photos, the dressed up in our Sunday best Christmas photos…  you get the picture!

Here are a few of our PAST Christmas photo cards (I think you’ll see a pattern… haha!):

(going from oldest to newest)

Notice anything about those?  😉   Yes~ we keep growing & growing & growing.  haha!

Here is another one from last year- her first Christmas (but not our card) – the pretty necklace was one that our boys made for me to wear to meet Santa.  

Ok- so, I love to take Christmas photos.  This doesn’t even cover it.  Each year I take a bunch.  I wish I could find my favorite one for you of the boys in their pajamas- it is so funny!

This year I bought our kids new Christmas outfits at the mall near our house, because OshKosh B’gosh is having a sale (see the pic- 50% off) and their clothes are always cute and they hold up.   Our OshKosh B’gosh clothes have made it through many hand-me-downs (my three boys, my nephew and our friend’s son…  6 boys!  This is why I buy this brand over & over again!)

Oh!  I also have  a 25% off a thirty dollar purchase that you can use!   (You can use it online, too!)
Here you go…   click the picture to get to the coupon & then print it out or use the promo code if you shop online.

Here are a few photos of our shopping trip…  (We ended up with Christmas outfits for the boys and our baby girl and we purchased really nice winter coats for our boys.  They were originally $84 each and we got them on sale… 50% off and then an extra 25% off!  Plus, I got a $10 gift certificate for my next purchase.)

This was just on our way into the store.  This was out front, so they couldn’t resist  (The best part is that they just ‘ride’ it without it actually moving.)

Here we are in the dressing room- isn’t this sweater & shirt set cute?  

Here is our three year old, E…  waiting for Mommy to check out.

Here is our 5 year old, B, playing with our baby girl, AB.   She was getting impatient waiting for me to check out (you can see my huge pile of things that I am going to buy on top of my stroller- there were just so many great sales!)

And- of course, they were completely taken with the masks at the check-out line!  haha!

That was our shopping trip!  Let me just say that shopping with four kids is hard work, but over all it went pretty well.  We were in and out in about thirty minutes (and that included trying on clothes!)    That is a record because shopping with kids at least quadruples my shopping time!  haha!   Can you relate?
