As the holiday season rolls around, our schedules become busier & we find ourselves scrambling to fit everything in. We love visiting family, going to fun events & doing all sorts of seasonal activities with the kids. But with three small kids, we have learned that sometimes, it is best to just stay home. No carseats, no overtired kids who missed their nap or their bedtime, no changing diapers in the back of the car or being stuck in traffic while one kid is puking yogurt parfait all over themselves (looking at you Ells). But just being home, and bringing all of the magic of the season home with us. Snuggling up on the couch in our pajamas, listening to Christmas music & making s’mores in the fireplace. I am so thankful that we were able to have some fun photos taken to capture some of our very favorite moments like these, these girls are the happiest at home, and I don’t think we can blame them.

Where did you get your garland?! I am crazy about it
The last one of you and Eloise is perfection. You have such a gorgeous family!

These photos are so lovely, and totally agree with you. Staying at home is the best option with little ones, and do fun things around the home.

Holy Cow!!! Eloise's eyes are so big and beautiful and blue <3 <3 <3 Such a lovely family!! Claire is getting so big, too.
cute photos! And I agree, sometimes it's nice to just stay home together!
I'm finally getting caught up with your posts and I love your new couch. It's a little too light for my taste but it looks great in your guys' living room. These pictures of your family are adorable and the kids look so happy. I'm waiting till after Thanksgiving to decorate for Christmas. Happy holidays to you and your family!
what adorable memories you have captured!
Gorgeous photos!! We too, are homebodies…and this is the first year that we're home for BOTH holiday! BIG deal! Can't wait!
I know you get so many comments and probably never have time respond and never see mine. But you have such a great family
You were my inspiration to start with my blog

Is there another blog post about those awesome stockings? Where are they from?
such great pics! love Harper's expressions and E is just too much, gorgeous little wild child. We are big homebodies, a memory is still a memory even if it doesn't include fancy outfits and fancy places
These photos are so sweet! You have such an adorable little family and I love, love, love these photos! I agree – sometimes days staying in and doing nothing are the absolute best.
Little Eloise is SUCH a doll! She has the prettiest colouring I've ever seen with her striking blue eyes and super dark hair!! These pictures are so gorgeous, I find myself liking them better than rigid, staged ones.
yes!!! second that. my first has dance on Monday night and every Monday all the moms talk about their weekends and what they did and I'm sitting there like "well – we did go to Target" I have a three year old girl and a one year old boy and am pregnant with our little surprise and I'm usually exhausted somewhere between chasing my naked toddler trying to get something other than an Elsa dress on her to go out and realizing as he clings to my leg that it is my son's nap time. CHEERS TO HOME!
I just can't even with this photos! Gorgeous family, Jessica!!
What sweet pictures. I love those stockings!
So, so true mama! I have become such a homebody since becoming a mama! Don't get me wrong- I love going out as a family and doing fun things but there is something special about a well rested baby and the comfort of home
Love these photos

Those pictures came out great!! Harper and Eloise remind me SO much of my girls! You can see all their little personalities shining right through in these photos
Girl you have the sweetest family!!
Gorgeous photos! I love these type of lifestyle shoots. Your house looks so cozy and inviting!
PRECIOUS photos!
You have a beautiful family!!
Fun pictures! Love the matching PJs, we do that too with our boys.
So sweet! So cute! It's nice to have candid shots instead of posed portraits. Your girls are dolls and you're a beautiful mama!
Agreed! We love being home too! With a 2 1/2 year old and 8 month old twins it's too much work to leave so we usually stay home!
Oh my goodness, Eloise looks so grown up in these! You have some beautiful girls!
P.s. I sent you an email in the last few weeks, just wondering if you got it?
yes I am agree with you. its better to pass time with kids on holydays rather than outing as rest of the days we remain busy with our professional work. by the way very cute pics!
Home should be the happiest place!

FINALLY catching up on the blog!!! Love these!
What a nice set of family pictures. These will be cherished later on, they grow up so quickly.
It says they're a past season of Anthropologie. She also linked to similar stockings that are currently available, but they don't have the fun colors that hers do!
Thanks for reminding me that my home need to be simple and just a reflection of who I am to be happy.
