I think hes gonna be like his dad. OH is 6"2 and eats so much! I tried to measure him and hes about 27inchs long now (hes wasn't completely straight though . Is that ok for 8 months? He was 19iches when born (that sound tiny!) anyone measured their LOs recently?

Ive no idea what my parents have bought the kids, or my younger sister, or my brother lol - but my older sister has got george a cool turtle stickle brick shape sorter, and joshua the Wii game he really wants which is cool as I couldnt afford it lol

Harvey, my hubby has bought me a coat, and some skinny jeans that I wanted and I was super happy to buy a size 8, and they are too big. Won't be after christmas though. xx

God I've never been a size 8 since being a kid lol you'll have to buy a size 10 after Xmas in the sales until you slim down again! Nice presents

Okies so I am surrounded by presents and Joshua just came down lucky I had barracaded the door and told him he couldnt come in as I had dropped a bag of rubbish and had smashed glass all over the floor lol

I am happy Joshua has enough Aside from his computer he has; 2 books, nerf bullets, cars 2 breakfast set, a scooter, horrible scienc slime making kit, doctor who buzzer game, 3D puzzle builder and a paper art set and chocolates!

George has 13 gifts and Joshua 11 + computer (lots of these were bought VERY cheap!) so I am happy with that!! I found some karate nunchucks too I forgot about lol I think i will wrap them off his brother and put them under the tree so Christmas lasts all day and he gets plenty to open later in the afternoon (tree presents will be done after dinner most probably!)

Okies, now to wrap it all!! lolol

Evening ladies!

I have never been a size 8 either, size 10 was the smallest i have ever been and now i am a 12 on the bottom and a 10/12 on the top and i'm appy with that

Mum and dad have a ball pit for william for his 1st birthday, i'm sure he will love it!

As for christmas, Noah has one of thos Dyson hoovers that pick up for christmas as he is always trying to use mine and it drives me insane!! So will let you know how good they are lol!

As for william he has a santa sack full of rattly, shiney, crinkly, toys to open on christmas day and my mum and dad have bought him a baby walker. And we have asked for clothes from other people so that we don't have to worry about buying 9-12 months hopefully! We are buying him a high chair after xmas so that is what we have held some money back for

I have no idea what to get for williams 1st brithday lol!

Tips for Christmas shopping;

1. value for money
2. its rectangular or square

all Joshua's stuff wrapped in 35 minutes using this fool proof method lol

Now georges's his are not so rectangular

 

[charlotteb24]

LOL i like your thinking!

 

[mummy3]

Brandi, 3k on christmas?! I think I would have a heart attack seeing that come out the bank account lol, what did you get? Mat clothes are a great idea for xmas day, expanding as you eat dinner

Thats a great lot of gifts wiggler, they'll love that

Harvey, let us know what your hubby ended up getting you. Hope your friend is ok I dont think hubby is getting me anything Eilidh is just under 25in, shes a shorty but was 16in born.

Good luck wrapping new, lol did Joshua fall for it?

Nice gifts 24, can you take your jeans back for a smaller size maybe?

Charlotte, hows William done with his eating? Rattly, shiny,crinkly things are good plan!

I want to gain weight desperately, very jealous of the 10/12/14s around! I wear size 0 now

Had fun afternoon, we took the kids to get christmas food and then went to another park. Eilidh had a go down the slide lol and as she was going down she got static lol and was giving us electric shocks she loved it!!

 

[new_to_ttc]

mummy I keep telling you I got plenty of tummy and boob you can have hun!!! Luckily Im still in my size 12s but getting a bit flabby again grrr so toning up come new year and got to eat better!!!

Charlotte I let Joshua use the big one (hoover) from being about 5 I think, under supervision of course lol, but it paid off because now he uses it to finish his room ha ha ha

Brandi $3K??? Are you crazy??? Hope you got some awesome gifts for that!

I love Christmas but also love keeping birthdays special, they are your special day! So I do try and make sure we celebrate it well! My mums birthday is christmas week so we go out of our way to make sure she has an awesome birthday as for as long as she can remember family etc buy her a joint gift and she never really gets a birthday

George has seen santa dropping off the presents! little monkey refused point blank to eat. Put him tot he boob, on and off crying, hmmm ant marvin starving maybe so gave him weetabix, settled but still crying, now knawing on dummy and a baby wipe shrug: dont ask me lol) so teething gel, now content, but wide awake and chatting!!! Arghhhh lolol he telling me all kinds of stories, it would be amazingly cute if it wasnt midnight! lol

Joshua did fall for it yes! I said I was sorry if the bang had woke him, he said no I didnt hear anything mam, are you ok, so i said yes but its gone right across the living room so please dont come in baby i havent found all the glass yet, he just said aww no problems, be careful mam! cute!

All the presents are wrapped now, just the stocking fillers to do oh and Joshua's computer! and the tidying! And finding somewhere to hide all the presents arghhhhh lol

i am rather impressed with myself how evenly matched I got the boys presents seeing how I started before George was even born!!!! Ive just picked bits up as I have gone along, so I am very happy, I have been worried! lol

 

[mummy3]

Awww Joshuas a good boy, I know Freja would've come storming in

Can I put an order in for booty too? always wanted to use this! Hope George goes to sleep soon for you hun, at least he in a happy mood though

 

[new_to_ttc]

You saying I got a big arse???? I'll ask OH lol He wont be happy i is giving away boobs, never mind booty too! lol

Joshua has no reason to question santa so no reason to question what I was up to pmsl

i need to tidy up now lol and wrap the stocking stuff, and the family stuff lol

I have done all Joshua's presents in blue paper and all Georges in red so I dont get muddled up, this will be ok wont it?

 

[mummy3]

I thought I would ask while the asking is good Seriously though, you have a great figure hun!

Its good plan to do different paper per kid, really makes things easier on the day. We have cars, minnie mouse, charlie brown and princess one

 

[BrandiCanucks]

Well, it wasn't planned that way, and it wasn't all at once! lol

Mummy, you'll need mat clothes for more than Turkey Dinner.

Zoe was singing the "I Want A Hippopotamus for Christmas" song tonight, and she goes "No f**kadiles, no why-notsus's"...


SO. FREAKING. CUTE!!

 

[mummy3]

Brandi what are you singing to her?! Shes a cutie!

 

[BrandiCanucks]

[mummy3]

I'd never heard it, makes sense now!

 

[new_to_ttc]

I had never heard it until Sunday lol was on a CD I was playing ast the christmas party and was like, wth!!! lol

Ive lost a present arghhhh!! I definitely had a DS game for Joshua to put in his stocking now I cant find it, though I do briefly remember moving it to somewhere safer, but I am dammed if I remember where was safer Plus that means I very likely have another bag of goodies some where arghhh!!!!! Ive engaged brain and it totally does not remember where I moved the damm game too! lol

 

[new_to_ttc]
