I might need to clear under the bed so I can put them under there, but i hate getting things from under the bed as I always think spiders will get me maybe just stick to small items this year

We had snoopers when it was their birthday so I definitely need to be careful. I just cleared under my bed (couple of empty suitcases) but I may ask my boss if I can store some things there

I’ve had to wrap things as we buy them as we have snoopers too.

I’ve had to wrap things as we buy them as we have snoopers too.

That's a good idea, though it's harder to hide wrapped presents.... hopefully not to many of awkward shapes this year x

 

[motherofboys]

bought a few little bits today in home bargains. Animals are done.
Advent calenders for the bigger kids done, I won't get Reuben one this year with him being so young.
Got 4 Yo-Yos
Nate and seth a magic Snake toy
Jimi and Zac a match box puzzle
Reuben a toothbrush for his Stocking and the controller I've been after.
Also got some books/activity books for the elf to bring at various points.

While I was there I grabbed some Halloween cups, a pin the eyes on the spider game and some Halloween balloons

Aww that's lovely you buy something for your animals

 

[motherofboys]

I felt a bit silly at first but the kids really wanted to, and now its just normal. I dont think the cat or snake would be an issue, but the dog loves the wrapping paper and it keeps him occupied opening his own presents

 

[Bevziibubble]

My parents used to send our dog a Christmas card

 

[motherofboys]

Awww thats sweet. Actually, that reminds me, my mum usually sends something for our dog so I'll have to get something for hers haha

 

[motherofboys]

The big 2s phones are dye to upgrade, and I'm sure I can do it now so going to sort that tonight

 

[motherofboys]

upgrade sorted, need to order cases but got plenty of time

 

[monkee12]

Which phones have you gone for? Weve just upgraded our 12 year olds to the iPhone SE 2020 x

 

[motherofboys]

Motorola moto e6 play for both of them. Honestly I just go for the cheapest option while still being a smart phone

 

[monkee12]

I don’t know Motorola lol, sounds good though, you will defo have happy kids this Christmas. Well my son has just asked for a flossing sloth

 

[Bevziibubble]

Hopefully you can get it sorted

 

[monkee12]

I’m going to try and pick one up tomorrow x

 

[motherofboys]

To be honest I didn't know motorola still did phones, my husband had one when we first met 17 years ago! But if it does the job they are happy and the longer I can go before they start asking for the more expensive ones the better haha

I've not see the flossing sloth. I hope you can manage to get one though

 

[monkee12]

This is it x

[Bevziibubble]
