"Holiday card photos...did not go as planned. In order to get our toddler to smile we literally had to hang her upside down, tickle her & smother her with kisses, stick our tongues out, give her a 'milkshake' (which was really just milk, ice, a handful of spinach & a banana blended), and bring an armless Mrs. Potato head out," Jamie captioned the slideshow.
As Jamie wrote in the first part of her caption, the pictures featured Henley with a Mrs. Potato Head figurine, Henley and her parents drinking one milkshake with three straws, Jamie and Doug both kissing Henley on her cheeks, the trio rolling their tongues, and Doug and Jamie holding Henley upside down by her legs as she giggled.
In another photo, Jamie was holding Henley on her hip as the pregnant mother and Doug connected two giant candy canes to form a heart.
The trio all wore red-and-black plaid shirts with denim jeans for the casual photo shoot that appeared to take place in their home, which was decorated beautifully for Christmas with a sparkling tree, garland, and stockings hung from the fireplace mantel.
"None of the pictures came out how I planned. I was hoping for that cutesy family photo where we all sit looking pretty while smiling at the camera," Jamie continued in her Thursday Instagram post.
"BUT, honestly, I kinda think these pics turned out even BETTER than what I had hoped for. It's real life as parents of a toddler & I'm just so *thankful* we get to live it! I used to *dream* of having a child of my own to celebrate the holidays with. I spent a couple Christmases crying for the babies I've lost."

Jamie and Doug, who got married on Season 1 of Married at First Sight, announced in September they're expecting their second child. One month later, the couple revealed they have a baby boy on the way who's due to arrive in May 2020.
The couple, however, struggled with infertility issues in recent years. Prior to Henley's arrival, Jamie delivered a son, Johnathan, at only 17 weeks in 2016 and he sadly did not survive.
After Henley was born, Jamie experienced a miscarriage shortly after conception was detected over one year ago, and then in January 2019, Jamie disclosed she had lost another baby at 10 weeks, according to E! News.

"The only problem I have is WHICH PICS SHOULD I USE FOR OUR CHRISTMAS CARD?!? Please help! Lol. I need 3 for the card I have planned! What are your top three favs????"

Earlier this week, Jamie shared two more pictures from the fun photo shoot, one in which Doug was kissing her on the head and another in which Henley was sitting in front of the fireplace by herself.
"I LOVE YOU DOUGLAS EDWARD HEHNER. You married a complete stranger who was weighed down with SO much baggage (that seems to keep rising to the surface) and you have *always* made me feel wanted, worthy, & LOVED just as I am," Jamie captioned the photos in part.
"I cannot say thank you and I LOVE YOU enough. You're the best man alive. I am so THANKFUL I get to make my own little family with @doughehner. We are building our beautiful family from the ground up."
