I know what my ornament looks like but I don't know if my parents still have it. There was a fire and it might have been destroyed or damaged.

Before my mom met my dad, her and my brother lived in a little apartment and they were poor. So, my mom made a bunch of felt ornaments and paints some ceramic decorations and I have them all, which is what I decorate our tree with now. I will continue until L is a little older and I want to do something a little less "kid-ish".
edit: they aren't mine, necessarily. We didn't get ornaments for christmas. I did grow up with them though.

My grandmother gave all the grandkids an ornament every year. I have all of mine and use them on our tree each year. My mom does the same with all of her grandkids.

DH and I both grew up getting an ornament each year. We both got them once we moved out. LO was excited to see that we both had Mickey\Minnie ones.

I do! My mom gave me my baby ornament from 1981 - I kind of wish she would keep it as now I worry about it breaking every year or me misplacing it!
I have a few other ornaments that we always had on our tree growing up, and my dad gave me an ornament that HE had as a little kid in the early 1950's!

My first ornament is on my mom's tree in the front near the top. My bro's is lower and off to the back/side...ha ha. I didn't put the ornaments up, but surely got a kick out of their placement. Rivalry never gets old.

My mom still has all my childhood ornaments although I don't think I have a "baby's first."

Mom still has our first christmas ones but I have a shoebox full of other ones I grew up with/was gifted/made myself.

I have all of my ornaments. I don't know of one, however, that was specifically my first.
