I ordered some of my DS's Christmas presents online today and started buying stocking fillers in August. I am due to give birth on 15th December so trying to be organised. Please reassure me that I'm not the only mad one who's started thinking Christmas.....

My ds2 was due 8th November so i was completely done bought and wrapped before he was born. Was determined not to have to rush frantically with a newborn and a 20 month old.

I love Xmas, I've been buying for months. Well really I don't stop, whenever I see something suitable I buy it, I much prefer to have a nice gift someone will like rather than rushing at the end just to get something.

I have started with lists of presents, food and gifts that need to be made.
I have bought a few bits, mostly stocking fillers, also dd1 has 2 Beatles t-shirts, and ds has some shark goodies. I have bought a lot of books also.
It is ds1 birthday on the 21st December so need to be organised so he does not feel his birthday is swamped by Christmas.
Ideally I would have done a lot more by now, but we have been so busy, and we are trying to cut back this year. However, I am convinced I buy more when I buy early and spend more money, but I do find it a lot less stressful.

I have a Christmas box under my bed thats full of presents and things.

I have 90% of DD1's (2yrs) and a few bits for DD2 (4mths) but im abit stuck for her as she already has a mountain of toys of her sisters.

Ive already got personalised first christmas baubles for DD2 and her personlised embroidered stocking. Cant wait to put them up as they will look Soooo cute hanging on the fireplace with thier names on Grin

I too have a list on the go, stating who I need to buy for, present ideas and how much im spending :)
I am a tad anal for lists so it would be out of character if I didnt Blush
