Lindsay Lohan is embracing the holiday season, centering her celebrations around her adorable two-year-old son Luai and her husband Bader Shammas.
The 38-year-old actress, now settled in Dubai, wants to create magical Christmas memories with her loved ones. For someone with a signature playful spirit, we find her love for family even more adorable and inspiring.
A Mom's Love for Christmas Wrapping
For Lohan, the holidays are all about the details, especially when it comes to present wrapping. "I'm very nerdy when it comes to wrapping presents," she shared, revealing a quirk that makes her holiday preparations extra special.
Her secret weapon for keeping her toddler excited? Dinosaur wrapping paper. "If he sees dinosaur wrapping paper, he gets excited," Lohan explained.
Her holiday traditions are more than just wrapping gifts, though. She also plans to create magical moments by filming every second of the decorating process: putting up the Christmas tree, and even baking brownies to create a whimsical "dirt" trail alongside the traditional plate of cookies for Santa. We love it!
Motherhood and Career During the Holidays
This Christmas is important for Lohan, as it's her son's second holiday season. "It's no longer about you, really," she admits. "Everything is about my child and my family and my household, and making sure my work is in line with what's going to work for everyone else."
Her recent Netflix film Our Little Secret was her first project as a working mom, shot when Luai was just six months old. The experience taught her valuable lessons about balancing professional commitments with family life. This holiday season, Lohan is prioritizing being fully present with her family in their Dubai home.
The actress's mother, Dina Lohan, has previously shared how naturally Lindsay has taken to motherhood. "To watch my oldest daughter with her beautiful son is a memory engraved in my heart forever," Dina told PEOPLE.
Wrapping Up
As Lohan prepares for the holidays, she remains committed to creating a warm, nurturing environment for her young son. She's inspiring all of us to capture every festive moment and create memories that will last a lifetime. Her holiday plans also show us how much she's grown, from a teen movie star to a dedicated mother who finds joy in the simplest moments of family life.
