Xmas Grin

Up with the small person and feeling a bit weepy. My baby is one on Friday 😢 I can't believe that this time last year she wasn't born.

*sniff....

TheWoollybacksWife · 21/02/2017 11:13

Oh MrsD Sad M is getting big. Don't you go and listen to Abba ' Slipping Through my Fingers' or you really will be a snotty mess

I loved the baby stage with all three of mine, but it is also wonderful to see their personality develop as they get older. DD2 maybe has a little too much personality for me to cope with at times Grin

SideOrderofSprouts · 21/02/2017 17:36

Aww already?? Baby chips is two in September and is my last one 😭

My youngest is 3 in July and also my last. I'm not sure where time went!

70isaLimitNotaTarget · 21/02/2017 21:16

They are so sweet as babies and toddlers ( yes really Xmas Grin ) and I have a pang of Xmas Envy when I'm Christmas shopping (for the aforementioned lanky teens) and see parents with PreSchool and Infant school DC who are so excited about Christmas.
DS is Hmm (not even Xmas Hmm with a festive hat ) at how I love to plan .
He'll appreciate it when he has his own (I bet he'll steal my ideas )

Happy Birthday Martha for Friday Cake

Naughty Baby... stole mummy's apple out of her work bag this morning.

Someone in our office has Mariah Carey "All I want for Christmas (is yooooooou)" as their ring tone. I am well jel.

304 wow this year is running away with us
Storm Doris didnt really hit us here Monmouthshire few boughs off trees on the road but not much else thank God

Hope all ok

MrsDilligaf · 23/02/2017 19:10

Doris has caused massive problems for us today. Everyone has called us (local council) to come and sort out fence panels, and fallen down trees...

I'm going all out and decorating the lounge for Martha's Birthday tomorrow. She's got tons of presents! Lucky little girl 😊

SideOrderofSprouts · 23/02/2017 20:44

TheWoollybacksWife · 23/02/2017 21:32

Thank you Sprouts. I've ordered them. It looks like they'll come in time for her birthday but perversely I hope they don't so I'm forced to keep them for Christmas Xmas Confused

AdoraBell · 23/02/2017 21:44

Now usually I wouldn't give a thought to Christmas before October - ish.

But as I know money may be super tight this year I was watching a Trinny Woodall video about Christmas presents this evening. So I'll be lurking, if that's okay?
