Sunset It's this one. Might not be everyones tastes, but I got a kick out of it.

Thanks, busy! My DS is pretty, I think he could pass for a DD sometimes, especially as he is in a skirt kilt in the photos! :)

Well done with the competition winning, Trib! :) I like the moustache cover! Cute! And no, not annoying to me at all.

Nice to see this thread a bit busier again!

SunsetsandSeagulls · 25/09/2012 22:32

Your DS looks gorgeous WW, great hair too!

Brilliant print Trib, wouldn't have occurred to me to use that print but it really works!

Just Gone a bit Christmas mad and bought an advent box from Lakeland amongst other things.....

WhatWouldVegansDo · 25/09/2012 23:50

Thanks, Sunset.

Ooh, which one? Link please! I have a wooden advent calendar, it's great! 90 days to go! Less til advent starts! :)

WhatWouldVegansDo · 26/09/2012 21:25

Ooh, that is lovely!

SunsetsandSeagulls · 27/09/2012 18:40

It's just arrived! I shall report back!!

MonsterBookOfTysons · 27/09/2012 19:21

Sunset that calendar is lovely!

SunsetsandSeagulls · 27/09/2012 20:16

It's soo cute! There are 3 sheep, 3 shepards, 3 kings, 3 camels (which are really cute) a cow, a donkey, a random white animal, a fire, Mary, Joseph and Jesus, the North star, 2 angels and 3 other things too, so there is one bit too many Smile. I hope it will be something that every year DD will look forward to opening the door on each day. For my birthday I've put a Shepard in....

SunsetsandSeagulls · 27/09/2012 20:19

Just read some reviews of it and one person bought it for her goddaughter and plans to give her a figure at christmas's and birthdays, so it will take 12 years to get the full effect and she'll get baby Jesus at the end....Bit of a long wait!

WhatWouldVegansDo · 27/09/2012 20:50

Lol @ random white animal! :)

I am confused - what do you mean, for your birthday you've put a shepherd in?

Er yes, one piece a year is some wait!

SunsetsandSeagulls · 27/09/2012 21:01

For the day in December that is my birthday I chose to put a little model Shepherd in the the door marked with that day...on the 24th day I put baby Jesus in that door etc....does that make sense?!

WhatWouldVegansDo · 27/09/2012 22:14

Yes, sorry, it's late! :)

SunsetsandSeagulls · 29/09/2012 15:11

DD's having a nap and is spooning her doll....it looks terribly cute Smile.

TheAngelshavetheOod · 29/09/2012 15:42

We are watching Bob the builder. Bob can't fix it. Daddy can't fix it but mummy can!

SunsetsandSeagulls · 29/09/2012 17:26

What channel is that on? Never seen it.

TheAngelshavetheOod · 29/09/2012 17:36

Cbeebies at about 7:30am. We have some on DVD.

SunsetsandSeagulls · 29/09/2012 19:04

Aah. We're in 'get your trousers on mode at 0730, with the aim to leave the house for 0740 which almost never happens!

TheAngelshavetheOod · 29/09/2012 20:11

We never watch morning tv. Watch on iplayer sometimes mainly cos I prefer it to most of kids tv

TheAngelshavetheOod · 04/10/2012 19:47

So how are we doing on the birthday front?

Dd3 on Sunday & she's coming down with something. Been tired all day, but snotty and hot tonight so has gone to bed ful of calpol. She was poorly on her birthday last year too :(

TribbleTuckandDismount · 04/10/2012 20:52

Oh wow, so weird to think all our little babies will soon be two [confussed].

I'm just getting him the last bits of his birthday presents, I've ordered the cake and am going to send out a general invite to a local farm place where we're all going to end up.

WhatWouldVegansDo · 04/10/2012 22:01

Poor DD, Ood, hope she is well soon.
DS will be two on Tuesday, we are gong away for a few days, probably the Black Forest, haven't booked accommodation yet! He's getting a balance bike for his birthday, which is sorted. I will make his cake. Off to look for a nice big number 2 helium balloon, haven't seen any shops like Clintons or the like, so hope I can find one!
He will always be my baby! :)

TribbleTuckandDismount · 09/10/2012 08:48

Oh did you have a good time vegan?
