I always wanted my boys to feel the magic of Christmas! I never skipped putting up our tree! You just have to teach them when they are young & it will be fine! If you are worried about your glass ornaments, just change them. ❤
Definitely put up your Christmas tree!!! For your toddler is going to be so magic!!! When my daughters were toddlers I decorated my Christmas tree with stuffed Disney characters. They loved them!! and the could play with them and then put them back to the tree. I also used plastic spheres that looked like cristal and other spheres and decorations made up of non breakable material
I would let my daughters to decorate christmas tree with me. This was such a fun activity for them. Also, i would give my younger daughter a section on the christmas tree so she can decorate how she wants. It won't be aesthetically pleasing lol 😂, but she always has so much fun and that makes me happy. I think you should put up a Christmas tree and just have fun with Nalia. She will LOVE IT. Amazing vlog my dear.❤
I enjoyed the Vlog. About the Christmas tree; I helped raise my nieces and nephews and raised my own my kids. We always had a tree. They have to learn at a young age that certain things are not to be touched. What did your mom do? I know she loves Christmas time. You might take into consideration the delicate ornaments. All our kiddos are grown and left the coop, but now we have cats! Still put up a tree but all the ornaments are soft and unbreakable. They still haven't gotten the concept of "no climbing the tree".
Hi Annie, definitely put up a tree! I did plastic/non breakable ornaments at the bottom and breakable ornaments at the top but they were very secured. Or you can do all non breakable ornaments if you feel she will shake it the tree lol. I promise you won’t regret it. It worked so well for us and it was such a beautiful memory ❤
Never skipped putting up my tree with my kids, they were fine. It’s a tradition and she needs to be a part of it. Just teach her not to touch as best as you can. Don’t deny having a tree
Absolutely agree! I have had to teach toddlers and puppies to stay away. Just made sure nothing breakable was within reach or put a plastic gate around it. It is such and important part of the tradition I would be way to excited to introduce it rather than leave it out.
@@vitezslavalazok4352 yes like shes implying skipping the tree vs just teaching her daughter. Maybe put the tree in another part of the room that she doesnt go into much?
We have three kids under 6 and we always had a tree. Just decorate the upper branches and leave out the low ones empty :-) we resorted also to bouncy ornaments not glass ones. Also knit ones.😊
Agree! Don’t deny yourself of having a tree. You shouldn’t have to sacrifice things like that to accommodate toddlers otherwise they won’t learn any discipline. But understand your point as you don’t have eyes in the back of your head all the time 😂 x
Regarding tree, there are some great and sweet wooden ornaments in Germany, just go to DM or some garden center(like Dehner). I have those wooden ornaments for years, they look great and are super practical with small children. Also, use some weighted holder for a tree so it does not fall down if she pull some branches.
Never skipped the tree, the first year my daughter was walking I allowed her to go up to the tree play with the ornaments, she broke only one and she’s five now
Goodness, yes to the Christmas tree!! Christmas is so magical for little children, mine used to be in awe of the lights and the tree! I’ve no doubt you will find loads of unbreakable, safe ornaments in your German Christmas markets which look like amazing places to visit. One thing though, will the plug for the lights be in a safe place? I’m sure you’ll make it Nalia proof if you choose to put one up 😊 Btw, I made the butternut squash sauce except we ate it as a soup with a drizzle of sweet chilli sauce on top. Had to practically fight it to peel and chop it though 😆
I make a similar sauce but with cashew-cream (blended cashew nuts with water or broth) added to the blended pumpkin, it makes it sooo yummy and tastes as if there was cream in it.
I always did a tree. First years were with lights bows an shatter proof ornament With my kids they soon learned that a no means a no…no exceptions matter what age. A few days of no no …and don’t laugh at her 😂… and you will see that she will love the tree and playing with her toys by the tree
We always have a Christmas tree. With children there is a Christmas tree and only lights. If the Christmas tree already comes with them - even better. No decorations. I have also put artificial snow, but that is a matter of taste😊
My kids are now 7-12 I have never skipped putting up the tree! I in fact look forward for it as my husband and I along with the kids we decorate together ever since they were small!! And we take loads of pics 😅😅😅 Now since they are getting big when I look at the pictures it makes me so happy that we created these memories but I completely understand ur concern and they will definitely pull it down specially when ur baby is around 1-2 but this stage you can teach them not to pull it so next year around they will know they are not supposed to pull You can have less hazardous materials at the bottom (where she can reach) and have others on top Btw this is my first comment but I’ve been following you for awhile now ❤️🔥😁 And I’m from Sri Lanka 🇱🇰
We never skipped putting up a tree! We did put a small barrier/fence that we found on Wayfair around it the first couple of years, but we mostly found our daughter just enjoyed looking at it or gently touching it. Our son, however, is a different story and that fence is needed. 😂😂😂
I still put up my tree when my baby was her age. They might be really curious and exited at first but then they'll get over it. Lol. You should try to buy non glass ornaments to Decorate this Xmas, but definitely don't skip it.
I was so excited to see are you going to get those locking magnets when your baby comes older, because when I found out them a year ago I thought they would be perfect in your classy home as well 🤩
I did a Christmas tree and my twins were 18 months approximately. I simply elevated the tree on a little table and didn’t put much decorations on the bottoms so they could not reach. They understand not to touch when you say it so it’s a good exercise. Little accidents happened but nothing crazy. Go on!! 😉🫶
I put out tree up early so she will get used to it. I bought soft stuff toy like decoration from Walmart and it’s perfect! She was playing with the stuff ball , Santa before , now she’s so used to it she so t even touch the tree . I wish I can show you picture of my tree!
Yes definitely put a tree up,my grandson is 7 now but we have always had a tree and he would be so excited over the tree,tell you the truth when he was little he would touch the tree a couple times and we would let him but after a while he wouldn’t touch it
Hi Annie, definitely put up your Christmas tree. Perhaps leave your fragile ornaments off or place them higher out of reach. She’ll be super interested at first and then it will become old news.
All three outfits are nice. Thank you for sharing this video. Please remind your workers to add the free gift of Aromatic pillow spray for my new order i already placed. Thank you.
While once a beacon of inspiration with an array of brilliant outfits and a rare beauty that stood out in a sea of sameness, she has, regrettably, transitioned into a reflection of the commonplace. Her once-distinctive style has given way to monotonous attire, and the innovative spark that characterized her has dimmed, now overshadowed by a botoxed facade and repetitive content. Her journey, albeit personal and respected, has shifted from a unique path to one well-trodden by many influencers.
I respectfully and wholeheartedly disagree. Annie has always lived with intention, truth and authenticity, and she has showed up as herself and has consistently exuded those values in her vlogs. You can see these sentiments reflected in her decision to only partner with a select few brands over and over, ones she has used for years and years (Monica Vinader, the other gold jewelry company, Seed, etc.) instead of promoting a new product or brand in every video similar to younger, newer influencers. She is sharing her journey, her style, her thoughts, and they serve as inspiration for us instead of a lifestyle to mimic. One of her quotes said many years ago still sticks with me today: “I like staying in my own lane and doing my own thing.”
@@TheSunnyD01 I appreciate your view on Annie's content and her partnerships. However, I've observed a different side to her online presence. While her selectivity with brands could be seen as loyalty, it sometimes comes across as minimal effort to maintain a revenue stream, especially when new content is infrequent and feels more like strategic advertising than genuine sharing. Moreover, the repetition in her content and the lack of expressiveness have left me longing for the originality that once defined her channel. The recent video where she addressed a serious global issue while applying makeup struck a particularly discordant note with me-it felt incongruous and lacked the depth such a topic deserves. I believe as viewers, we seek a balance between authenticity and entertainment, something that seems to be dwindling in her recent offerings.

This is really cool idea! Thank you for sharing that ❤
Would love to see a part 2 of styling outfits! Also can’t wait to try making that butternut squash pasta, it looks so good and simple to make!

The pasta recipe looks so delicious Annie! You always share such good recipes with us 😍 the outfits are on point! Stylish and classy ❤

Hallo Annie, I love the fall outfits. I love the 2nd and third look. Please share more ideas
Annie, do we actually live in the same country? 😂 those fall outfits would freeeeeze me in a second
I always had a tree with my toddlers I just told them not to touch and I taught them well. 👍🏼
I still put up the Christmas tree, but it taught me toblet go of some expectations and kept the bottom portion baby-safe.
I make a similar sauce but with cashew-cream (blended cashew nuts with water or broth) added to the blended pumpkin, it makes it sooo yummy and tastes as if there was cream in it.
I would love to see more of "what I eat in a day"
I love your vidéos Annie please poste 2 time per week

Thanks for the great video. Love those recipes.
When my kids were toddlers I put our tree inside the playpen... 😅 Many years ago!
Thanks Annie! Would love another fall outfit video. Number 2 is 💯 me its my favorite. Cant wait to try that pasta. ❤❤❤

I just made this Crumble, it's soooo yummy! Thank you ❤
Thx you so much for the look. I tryed so many of them. Was never happy. I defenently gone buy it. 😊
I can tell from your latest videos that you are just thriving ❤
I made "safe" trees. Decorating them with dried oranges, cinneman...

I remember when we were kids, the Christmas Tree was on our big living room table. :) depending on the room maybe you have to get a smaller tree
I still put up my tree when my baby was her age. They might be really curious and exited at first but then they'll get over it. Lol. You should try to buy non glass ornaments to Decorate this Xmas, but definitely don't skip it.
I bought Xmas ornaments that won't break .. like felt material and wood.. there's lots of beautiful designs on Amazon actually 😊
I just love the food ideas
I was so excited to see are you going to get those locking magnets when your baby comes older, because when I found out them a year ago I thought they would be perfect in your classy home as well 🤩
I love your glass drinking cups! Where are they from?
Maybe you could buy smaler christmas tree in a big heavy flower pot so it wouldn't flip. It could be stable but I do not have experience with it. 😅😊

I love your recipes!!!!! Yummm
We always put up a christmas tree. We did not put it in the middle of the room so it was not so exciting for him and just a normal item in the room.
Don’t skip the Christmas tree. She will love it.
Annie, What do you think about liquid greens like AG1?
If you don’t want to put your big tree 🌲 I would say you can still put a smaller tree somewhere on your corner table or something.
You could put a small Christmas tree on top of furniture
Hey Annie! What's your favorite cookbook?
Love always🌷🌷🌷
Hi Annie can I ask you about the H&M jeans did you trim it or it hits the ankle ?
I tie my Christmas tree to radiator behind so it can not be toppled down :)

You don’t have to get real glass ornaments. I don’t see the harm in having a tree as long as you put up baby friendly ornaments
Just fence of your Xmas tree e.g put. behind a coffee table or toy box. My toddlers would deffo have pulled it over otherwise!!
Dang. Now I’m hungry
Loved this video ❤
Put the tree up. Tell her “no” if she tries to pull the ornaments off.
Exactly. That’s how I did it with my son, never an issue and the tree was completely ignored.
Table top xmas tree?
❤❤❤❤
Do you eat beef?
She has before, yes
Can you share Pasta recipe?

Sorry babe but you have gotten to be too “influencer type“ to your videos, doesn’t feel authentic
