I love Disney ornaments and we're doing a Disney theme as well. We're each going to get an ornament each year (me, my husband, and daughter, our only) and this is her first Christmas. We got a Doc McStuffins ornament for her--she doesn't really "watch" Disney Jr. right now, but she's started to kind of like the bright colors on the TV for short periods at a time and loves the songs. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-you-buy-lo-an-ornament-each-year#post-1930275 Wed, 05 Nov 2014 07:50:33 +0000 bushelandapeck 1930275@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@MamaG: those are gorgeous ! I may pick some up for our preschool teachers :) </p> <p>I'll probably buy a Hallmark one for DS and a first Christmas one for DD. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-you-buy-lo-an-ornament-each-year#post-1930248 Wed, 05 Nov 2014 07:20:56 +0000 looch 1930248@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@MamaG: Oh, those are gorgeous, thank you for the link! </p> <p>So far, I have more snowflake ornaments than my son is old in years, but we have a crystal, wedgewood porcelain, lennox porcelain, whimsical mickey holding a snowflake and at least one other, it's escaping me now. I also will get him a sterling one and then I might have to repeat. I did snowflakes because he's a December baby. He'll also inherit my set of silverplate sleigh bells, so I wanted them to kind of all go together. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-you-buy-lo-an-ornament-each-year#post-1929732 Tue, 04 Nov 2014 18:02:00 +0000 Smurfette 1929732@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@MamaG: yeah DH and I both got all our ornaments when we moved out of the house and had a tree of our own. My Mom had to go and buy a ton after giving three kids their ornaments. I can't wait to do the same for R. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-you-buy-lo-an-ornament-each-year#post-1929715 Tue, 04 Nov 2014 17:51:58 +0000 MamaG 1929715@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Smurfette: Thanks for the perspective. I shouldn't assume that LO will be like me and want a "fancy" tree. It's hard for me to let go of my perfect tree for a family friendly tree.</p> <p>Of course my mom didn't hand me a collection of ornaments, maybe I would have had a different opinion on my tree if she had :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-you-buy-lo-an-ornament-each-year#post-1929565 Tue, 04 Nov 2014 16:10:52 +0000 Mamaof2 1929565@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>DD will get a Disney princess<br /> DS will get Star Wars</p> <p>I LOVE picking one out that represents their fav thing that year!</p> <p>Don't forget to write the year on the bottom :happy: </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-you-buy-lo-an-ornament-each-year#post-1929337 Tue, 04 Nov 2014 14:28:24 +0000 Smurfette 1929337@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@MamaG: I like the childish ones! I still remember mine from when I was a kid. It is fun for me to put them on the tree every year. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-you-buy-lo-an-ornament-each-year#post-1929323 Tue, 04 Nov 2014 14:24:36 +0000 fancyfunction 1929323@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I get a few but started the tradition last year of getting her one to reflect what she's into at the moment. Last year was an ornament of Fisher Price stacking rings and this year it's Elmo ;) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-you-buy-lo-an-ornament-each-year#post-1929303 Tue, 04 Nov 2014 14:17:41 +0000 MamaG 1929303@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I've tried to avoid anything too childish because I want to give them to LO when she's grown and her want to display them on her tree. The link above is what we have done for two years. I also do a photo/porcelain one from shutterfly with her christmas picture. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-you-buy-lo-an-ornament-each-year#post-1929299 Tue, 04 Nov 2014 14:16:33 +0000 MamaG 1929299@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@looch: We have ordered these for two years now for LO and her teachers. A little pricey, but they are gorgeous.</p> <p><a href="https://www.etsy.com/shop/TimberGreenWoods" rel="nofollow">https://www.etsy.com/shop/TimberGreenWoods</a> </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-you-buy-lo-an-ornament-each-year#post-1929292 Tue, 04 Nov 2014 14:14:11 +0000 Tanjowen 1929292@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'm still on the hunt, but I would love to find something that commemorates it as his first "real" Christmas, as he turns 1 year old a few days beforehand. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-you-buy-lo-an-ornament-each-year#post-1929285 Tue, 04 Nov 2014 14:12:00 +0000 LuLu Mom 1929285@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I think i'll be getting her either a Frozen one or a Sofia the First since those are her obsessions. Last year we got her a little fairy because she was just this petite little thing. I have a book I write down each year's ornament and the meaning so she can have it when she's older. I will do the same with #2. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-you-buy-lo-an-ornament-each-year#post-1929230 Tue, 04 Nov 2014 13:51:26 +0000 mrs.shinerbock 1929230@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My mom does them for all the grandkids - each grandkid has a theme, like angels or santas.</p> <p>I do one for our goddaughter, but I pick one I think she will like or I really like. She's only 2, so we might go with things she is into as she gets older. I usually find them at a local gift shop or at a big Christmas market that a local charity throws each year. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-you-buy-lo-an-ornament-each-year#post-1929189 Tue, 04 Nov 2014 13:39:09 +0000 loveisstrange 1929189@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>C is getting a Curious George one I found at Hallmark.

This year, I think I am doing laser cut wood. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-you-buy-lo-an-ornament-each-year#post-1929004 Tue, 04 Nov 2014 12:28:11 +0000 Smurfette 1929004@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@bunnylove08: I haven't even started looking yet, but good to know! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-you-buy-lo-an-ornament-each-year#post-1929003 Tue, 04 Nov 2014 12:27:57 +0000 Mrs. High Heels 1929003@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Not sure! I always browse to see what's out there first, and then that usually helps me figure out what fits them for the year. Frozen is a good one - DD would love that! I also really like the idea of a personalized one every year @mrsjyw: ! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-you-buy-lo-an-ornament-each-year#post-1929000 Tue, 04 Nov 2014 12:26:52 +0000 Mrs.KMM 1929000@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We always did this when I was growing up but we got to pick out our own ornament each year. It is fun to see how our tastes and likes changed as we grew up! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-you-buy-lo-an-ornament-each-year#post-1928990 Tue, 04 Nov 2014 12:23:17 +0000 cheert16 1928990@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Haven't found one for B yet!
