Hi fellow toddler moms!

I'm posting this here instead of the main board because I want cute ideas for christmas pose (for the christmas card) for 3 1/2 yr olds.
We've done some cute things in the past, the christmas lights one being my favorite but again that was cute for babies. I really want a good idea for kiddos my age.

If you've done something in the past that worked well or are trying something with your toddler this year, thought we could start posting ideas.

It's never too early to start trying to get the perfect picture for that christmas card. It seems when halloween is done, it's a fast push toward the holidays!

thanks in advance!

Here are the two we did the last two years.

This was done against a white sheet and we took a photo of some trees in our backyard. My dh cut the kids into the tree photo. We borrowed my sister's sled and they wore Circo turtlenecks and jeans... pretty easy. If anyone wants my tree background, I'd be happy to e-mail it.

This was Christams 2006. Also taken against a white sheet. The idea with the ornaments was to keep the kids occupied because they did not (and still don't) like to sit for pix, especially together. The ornaments gave us a few minutes to shoot some pictures. They are unbreakable and purchased at Hobby Lobby. I think we bought two containers full. PJ's are Hanna Andersson.

Sorry the photos are so large. I've got to figure out how to make them smaller. Does anyone know how? I am using photobucket.

As for this year, no ideas yet. Since we have a new addition to add into the pictures, I know I will have to get even more creative. Hmmmm... keep the ideas coming!

Oh, I love the ornament one!!!

Here is a link to my families Holiday Card last year. I got the idea from another TC mom.

We used this for a year....birthdays, holidays, whatever- we left the inside blank so we could customize the cards.

I tried to email you, but your username was disabled. Could you send me the tree background. I love this picture idea. Thank you for sharing.

I will e-mail it to you. I think it's on our pc upstairs, so I need to get it later.

OMG I have a BGB trio born on the same day and year as yours. What are the chances! I'm also looking for a picture idea but I have a four-month old to add to the mix. I can't think of what to do! Hope you're surviving the 3's.

That's very COOL! Where are you located? We are in So CAL. We are loving the 3's. It's too funny the things they say and do!
