Celebrate Babies First Christmas at Babies R Us

Although a promotional item was received, all opinions are my own.

BFC logo

Baby’s First Christmas is a special time in a family’s life filled with memories, traditions, and photos. I vividly remember Kaytlin’s first Christmas. She was almost 7 months old and fairly vocal when it came to things she wanted. I was sitting on the floor with her during present time and was trying to “start” her gifts to make them easier to open. Each time I would rip the paper she would “scold” me with a high pitch irritated squeal. At first we thought it was a fluke, but she did it every single time. It still makes me giggle to think about it 21 years later.

This year Babies “R” Us wants to help celebrate your babies first Christmas with you!  

Maybe your family’s first Christmases were years ago or perhaps this year will mark your baby’s first – either Babies “R” Us wants to hear about your family’s traditions and favorite memories of your kids’ first holiday!

    I absolutely loved my my breast friend nursing pillow. I couldn’t have made it through my daughters’ first year without it. I highly recommend them! Thank you!

    We’re expecting baby #2 and I had just about gotten rid of all the bady stuff we had from #1. We could definitely use some little bitty clothes.

    I would love to try a Moby Wrap GO Baby Carrier. I’ve used a Moby wrap before, but have not used the Moby Wrap Go and it looks comfy.
