They start popping up on your social media feeds in early December, and continue right on until new years. It’s the now-iconic shot of the whole family —sometimes including aunts and uncles, grandmas and grandpas — in the same Christmas pajamas. Whether you bust out the same holiday pajamas every year or use it as an excuse to go shopping for some new cozy duds each time, getting a picture of everyone from dad to an infant sporting the same look is always just adorable. And a caption can add lots of meaning to your picture, whether you want to make it silly or sweet. If you haven’t found your perfect Christmas pajamas yet, it’s not too late. You can also add to your matching ensemble with Santa hats, elf hats, or reindeer headbands. There are even matching sets that include a little ensemble for your dog, though they might not be a willing participant.
