need a new xmas cupboard

[vix1989]

Oh my!
i think i went over board!!

i went out tonight only to look at carpets at carpet right.
and i ended up going to B&M just for a nosey (next door to carpet right) and ended up getting more presents for the kids

i got a huge box with train tracks and an old fashioned train that makes chuff choof woowoo noises when it goes round the track for taylor £12.99.
A big box with 12 peppa pig jigsaws £2.50 (this one was from asda) for mia.
a 81 piece thomas the tank engine art kit for taylor from b&m £2.99 and a peppa pig music band set £6.99 also B&M, for mia

Because they were huge boxes i now have to find a new xmas cupboard to store more presents and xmas food and new decs!

im a little bit chuffed that the cupboard is full, but doubtful of which cupboard i can make as my new one.

OHHHH and i have mias kitchen arriving tomorrow! god knows where thats gunna go

 

[Blah11]

[vix1989]

[Siyren]

[vix1989]

[vix1989]

But i dont want to sort it coz i know for a fact that theres huge spiders living in there!!

i'll squeeze into the hatch Nah, I'll have had bub by then! our house was built in the 90s and has great storage. 2 walk in cupboards, an airing cupboard and a massive floored loft. Every bedroom has a big cupboard wardrobe too me and OHs have a double one.

 

[vix1989]

my hatch is wayyyy to small for people to get in lol, think it was made especiallyfor little elves!

 

[Siyren]

lmao!!!
dont you worry bout waking amelie on xmas eve with the loft?
actually vix that goes for you too= im quite worried bout waking her on xmas eve- cos she wont resettle in her room at all, we bring her down here and obv dont want her seeing everything x

 

[Blah11]

Mine has 2 lots of christmas decorations (my mums and ours!), a single bed, a cot, some cupboard doors, a punchbag, ALL of amelies clothes from birth-12-18 LOL, baby bath, jumperoo, baby toys etc, christmas pressies

not really no. She isnt that light a sleeper though!

 

[Siyren]

lmao im not sure if lyss is a light sleeper or if its just that our flooboards are shockingly creaky
its a flipping good laugh getting from the top of the stair to our room

 

[Blah11]

amelie was a nightmare when she was younger. She'd fall asleep on the boob then either waken up en route to her bedroom or as soon as I laid her down her eyes would ping open! Thank god she goes to bed awake and self settles now.

 

[Siyren]

awwww i keep telling my SIL, that they really do crack it in their own time! lyss used to feed to sleep, on me, in a sleeping bag, with a dummy in each hand.
now she goes in her cot with her teddy and quilt and settles herself with a dummy, which she's gradually self weaning from

sooooooo excited for xmas now! we're gonna bake on xmas eve

did amelie (and taylor if vix comes back) really "get" xmas at 2? (early 2 that is as if i remember correctly amelie is a january baby?)

 

[Blah11]

Yes, her birthday is on Jan 4th. Her 2nd christmas she understood perfectly that santa comes and gives her presents Really looking forward to this year though !

 

[vix1989]

ermmmm yer he understood it in a way!
he knew something was going on! especially when the tree went up!
we kept talking about FC and read him xmas stories every night and he got the gist of it!
he was very excited xmas eve!!! so it obviously worked!!
mia already know who father xmas is!
if she sees a pic of him she shouts "farmer missmas"

God blah! how big is your loft!!!!

 

[Siyren]

im so ridiculously excited! lyssa's birthday is really soon now too! though im shocked that she's 2 soon!

that is so cute!!!!!
and makes me giggle cos lyssa has decided that all little male characters for toys are farmers! so if i get her the little happyland xmas set- she will most likely say the same!

 

[Blah11]

its massive, its like the whole roof space of my house IYKWIM? we were debating converting it into a room but I'd need to lose half a room in what is our bedroom now for stairs

You're lucky to even have one cupboard! I have stuff in drawers, in the desk, the wardrobe, on top of the wardrobe, bookcase... driving me mad!
