Christmas Traditions

Since this is Dominick's first Christmas, I've began thinking of fun traditions I'd like to start in the next few years.

+Christmas pajamas. He has a few pairs of Christmas pajamas so I'd like to keep that going.
+25 Days of Christmas Books. I think this would be fun to do during his childhood years.

+Christmas ornaments. We order a family ornament every year. Our 2010 one talked about distance as Ryan was away at BMT this year. 2011 was just a simple one and this years included a baby. I think they're perfect. I'd like to keep this going.
+Activity Advent Calendar. I think this would be a fun little way to countdown until Christmas and give him something extra to look forward to each day.
+St. Nick's Day. December 6th, I guess this isn't a Christmas tradition, but a December tradition.

+Visiting Santa. While I don't want Dominick to think that Christmas is ONLY about Santa, we do want to follow along with the tradition.
+The same Christmas breakfast or dinner every year.
