My PJ Tradition...

2010 Christmas pajamas for my 7 year old son

My mom was an amazing homemaker, and with 4 kids I'm sure it wasn't an easy task to make matching Christmas pajamas most years. Opening some homemade pjs on Christmas Eve wasn't exactly the gift I wanted to open, but looking back at the pictures and the memories, it really was one of my favorite gifts. My kids (7 & 5) don't really care now, but making them jammies is a great love and tradition I hope to pass on. It's also a good way to remember what year was what in those early morning Christmas pictures, madly unwrapping and grinning ear-to-ear in front of their Christmas loot.
My daughter's pjs aren't done yet, but I'm using the same pattern and fabric, just adding red rick-rack to the cuffs. The pattern is from Walmart, was less than $3 and the fabric was bought on Black Friday for only $1.29/yard! These have been the cheapest pj's ever, coming in at only $3/ea. set.
