Family photos, but make them honest: matching pajamas, a lukewarm cocoa spill, and at least one kid refusing to smile. Although, we’ve noticed that smiling comes a little easier when you’re wearing adorable and totally comfy holiday pajamas. From favorite characters to classic stripes to chaotic Santas, these family matching pajamas are equal parts cute and comfy—perfect for pretending you have it all together in those holiday pictures. (Check off everyone on your list with all of our holiday gift guides: baby, toddlers, kids, moms and dads, stocking stuffers, and advent calendars!)
