CHRRRRRRRRRRRRRIIIIISSSSSSSSSSSSSSTMMMMMMMAAAAAASSSSSSSS!!!!!!!!!!!

I mean, it's not like we have had a Summer to miss is it?

Can look forward to cosy evenings, winter markets, wrapping up warm, rubbishy weekend TV, the months of anticipation, the shopping, the thought of all of the food that we can eat...

I am going to be heavily pregnant and can layer up in oh so comfy maternity jeans, ponchos, roll neck jumpers and flat leather boots whilst slightly resembling stylish...

111 days and counting!

YABU

What about all the other fun, winter stuff?

Halloween

Bonfire night

Shortest day

Cold, sunny days

Frosty mornings

There is so much more than the day of stuffing your face!

Yes, I am, I saw a friend this morning for coffee and she was just about to start making her own Christmas cards. Fair got me in the mood for christmas it did , especially as it's now cold enough for heating on.

fairyfeatures · 04/09/2015 15:03

Yes yes WCIUTNIW but they are the build up for Christmas for e. Bonfire night a particular fave!

oh I know TTAT - heating is back on this week much to DH's annoyance!

Go to the Christmas topic............please.

YABU to try to inflict it on the rest of us, it's way way too early.

Lj8893 · 04/09/2015 15:07

Me too! I've never been this excited this early in the year, but I can't wait!

We have made all our plans for Xmas day and Boxing Day and I want to make it super special and lovely. We got married this year and dd will be 2 so the first year she will be (a little bit) aware of what's going on!

Tangoandcreditcards · 04/09/2015 15:07

I am 24 weeks pregnant.

Roll on Christmas indeed.

16 weeks to go, never have I done such an active countdown from so early in the year!

fairyfeatures · 04/09/2015 15:08

There's a Christmas topic??? I'm all starry-eyed!!

Thank you for leading the way SanDiego whispers it is NOT too early

StillStayingClassySanDiego · 04/09/2015 15:10

I can take it in November, not September 4th.

StillStayingClassySanDiego · 04/09/2015 15:10

I'll give you this

notaprincessbutaqueen · 04/09/2015 15:13

Aw tango I'm 25 weeks pregnant. Christmas countdown started months ago!!!

daisychain1991 · 04/09/2015 15:27

I can not wait for Xmas DD will be 9months old! I am so excited to have my first Christmas as a mummy!

EnjoyTheSimpleThingsInLife · 04/09/2015 15:36

You are being totally unreasonable

HTH

Cloppysow · 04/09/2015 15:38

Where is the trigger warning?

fairyfeatures · 04/09/2015 15:40

SalemSaberhagen · 04/09/2015 15:46

YANBU!

I can't wait for Christmas. Last year DD was 13 weeks so didn't have a clue. This year she will be 15 months, and whilst I know she won't really know what Christmas is, she will be so excited by the presents and sparkly lights.

Come and join us over in the Christmas topic OP! There is an ongoing amazing bargain thread which I have been suckered in to, and even better, no Scrooges in sight

Tealtowel · 04/09/2015 15:49

Yay I want to join the festivities
Yesterday I put the heating on and I thought gosh it would be perfect all cold and frosty outside with a christmas film on !

Tangoandcreditcards · 04/09/2015 16:12

Snap queen my Christmas countdown spreadsheet (OH YES!) starts in May this year.

We're in a new house and DS will be almost 2 and I might have an actual baby as an actual Christmas present.

And I bloody love mince pies even though they'll give me horrible heartburn.

And I still have 4 (FOUR) Christmas novelty maternity outfits from last pg.

Oh look, I'm even more excited than I thought i was.
Happily banishing myself to the Christmas topic for the foreseeable.

dingit · 04/09/2015 16:20

Yeah, bugger off to the Xmas topic, I clicked on the thread thinking that it was something REALLY exciting.
On the other hand, I can get excited about our half term trip to centre parcs [ smile]

dingit · 04/09/2015 16:21

fail

HackerFucker22 · 04/09/2015 16:25

I was over 8 months pregnant last year. It wasn't as much fun as usual... I was working and fat and tired plus I couldn't have my Baileys

I am incredibly excited this year as my older DC will have more interest and my baby will be almost 1.

However I refuse to actively participate in anything Christmas on the 4th of September (apart from my pinterest Xmas board and posting on this thread!!)
