CelebrityBabyScoop Finds Out How Stars Are Celebrating the Holidays

To celebrate the festive season, CelebrityBabyScoop is taking a look at how some of our favorite celebrity families spend their holidays. From Tori Spelling‘s love of decorating, baking and eating, to Jodie Sweetin‘s multi-celebrations, to Jennie Garth‘s “village under the tree,” to Denise Richards‘ favorite holiday traditions, let’s take a look at how the celebrities and their families enjoy the holidays.

Tori Spelling

Reality TV stars Tori Spelling and Dean McDermott welcomed their third child Hattie Margaret on October 10th, and the proud parents told Celebrity Baby Scoop they’re “excited” to celebrate baby’s first Christmas, along with older children Liam, 4, and Stella, 3.

“We’re definitely going to hang with friends and family,” Tori said of their holiday plans. “We love the holidays, so we’re excited to celebrate Hattie’s first Christmas. We’re excited to have our Santa Claus pictures with all three of them. Stella’s already picked out matching outfits for her and Hattie. We love to cook and bake a lot. We’ll be decorating the whole house so that’ll be a lot of fun.”

Busy Philipps

Cougar Town star Busy Philipps – who is mom to 3-year-old daughter Birdie – opened up to Celebrity Baby Scoop about a low-key Christmas at home.

“Christmas is at home this year. We have a big tree and I always make a few different kinds of cookies. Decorating sugar cookies is always one of the most fun events. Birdie will have some friends over and we let them go crazy with the sprinkles and frosting.”

Denise Richards

Actress/author Denise Richards adopted daughter Eloise Joni in June, joining her older daughters – Sam, 7, and Lola, 6 – whom she co-parents with ex-husband Charlie Sheen. The single mom-of-three opened up to Celebrity Baby Scoop about their holiday plans.

“I spend my holidays with family and friends,” Denise said. “The more the merrier.” The actress, 40, admitted that part of her family includes her troubled ex. “I do see Charlie over the holidays. He’s my family.”

And this year, the household will be that much more merry with the celebration of baby Eloise’s first Christmas! “I can’t wait for her first picture with Santa,” the proud mom shared.

Denise went on to talk about favorite family traditions over the holidays.

“The kids & I track Santa online to see where he is and when he will be at our house,” Denise said, and added that her girls still believe in St. Nick. “They’ve heard otherwise, but I’ve reassured them he exists. We set out cookies and milk and carrots for the reindeer.” She added, “I make the chocolate no-bake cookies my mom always made.”

Jennie Garth

Beverly Hills, 90210 alum Jennie Garth and her her sexy Twilight star hubby, Peter Facinelli, plan to celebrate the holidays with three daughters: Luca, 14, Lola, 9, and Fiona, 5. The busy mom-of-three – who stars in this season’s holiday family film A Christmas Wedding Tail – recently opened up to Celebrity Baby Scoop about their favorite family traditions.

“Traditions. The girls and I love to bake Christmas cookies and give them out to friends,” Jennie shared. “We also do this crazy huge village under our tree, with little people and snow and mountains and twinkle lights. That’s something Peter’s family originated, and our girls love it!”
