I wanted to do this this year but I can't find a set that does one for a baby under nine months, but I will next year. DP says it's stupid and refuses to join in!

QuestionableMushroom · 26/11/2019 15:35

Nope.

VenusClapTrap · 26/11/2019 15:35

No. We don’t wear Christmas jumpers at all. I wouldn’t buy something so appalling for the environment.

No, but dd and I have matching Christmas jim jams we wear to put the tree up and she absolutely adores it.

FenellaMaxwell · 26/11/2019 15:37

Good god no.

Bluntness100 · 26/11/2019 15:37

No, definitely not.

1Bobbinwinder · 26/11/2019 15:38

No, and I can't see it ever happening.

picklemepopcorn · 26/11/2019 15:40

No. That said, one by one we've each acquired festive jumpers. But they get good wear, and won't be replaced until they are worn out.

Dementedmagpie · 26/11/2019 15:41

No. DH would think it was unbelievably cheesy, DS would never consider wearing a jumper and Dd would probably think it was really cringe.
I'm not especially keen on the idea and wonder if matching jumpers and Christmas pjs are mainly for photo ops on social media or Instagram?

Cuddling57 · 26/11/2019 15:42

No!
Another way for companies to get money out of people!

karala · 26/11/2019 15:44

no

MustardScreams · 26/11/2019 16:04

Isn’t literally everything a photo op for social media nowadays?

In my defence (not that I need to) I have been very ill, and having a break from treatment over Xmas before starting up again, so will be wearing everything Christmassy (and taking photos of it) from the 1st December onwards. Life is too short.

RoseHippy1 · 26/11/2019 16:06

Not quite the same but I’ve just bought my 2 babies plus my toddler niece and nephew matching Xmas PJs! cute

Laniakea · 26/11/2019 16:07

No

PhantomErik · 26/11/2019 16:12

No, but we all have Christmas jumpers but different designs.

They have all come from a charity shop or off ebay & the kids ones will be sold/donated when they don't fit & I'll keep my eyes open for the next size up.

AdoptedBumpkin · 26/11/2019 16:14

No and never would. Grin

PrincessHoneysuckle · 26/11/2019 16:15

We were the same santa pronto long sleeved tops last year but this year we ste all having different xmas themed

PrincessHoneysuckle · 26/11/2019 16:15

Print not pronto!

gingajewel · 26/11/2019 16:22

Yep and matching Christmas pyjamas too, the kids love it!!

TheElfFellOffTheShelf · 26/11/2019 16:26

Not matching ones no but we do wear our own individual ones! Not for the photo ops btw but just because our house is cold (we don't put the heating on very high) and they're nice and warm. They're surely no more damaging to the environment than any other type of clothing if you buy them 2nd hand, wear them often and don't just throw them away after one year?

AliceLittle · 26/11/2019 16:57

fgs no

bananamonkey · 26/11/2019 17:01

God no, why would I want to dress like my toddler, or worse my husband? Confused

Chickenitalia · 26/11/2019 17:05

No. I do have themed pyjamas this year but only because we all need new pyjamas anyway, and they will be worn as much as needed for the weather through the winter and spring. Dh rarely wears a jumper anyway, and most of them seem vile and itchy. The kids also run warm so they have a seasonal T-shirt each which they wear throughout the year if they fancy it.
The thought of us all matching in public... no. But go right ahead if you enjoy it!

Bunnylady53 · 26/11/2019 17:07

I rarely wear jumpers & neither does DH. DD might get one for a day at school but she’s not bothered.

MrsJonesAndMe · 26/11/2019 17:12

Uhmm...no Grin
