Love this thread!

Today we went fabric shopping and looked at some fab Christmas fabrics, then popped into Home Bargains and had a look through the Christmas aisle there (their tree ornaments this year are amazing!)
Then tonight me and Lucas made a Christmas tree and cosy fireplace out of Lego

 

[MissBroody]

A few things today!

- Wore a big scarf out for the first time (not strictly Christmassy but winter is coming!)
- my sparkling cinnamon diffuser arrived so the living room smells so Christmassy! The boys' Christmas jumpers arrived in the post from Boden too
- baked the Christmas cake!!! The fruit had been soaking in sherry for a week, baked it for 6 hours (the house smelt amazing) will feed it sherry for another 5 weeks then marzipan and royal ice..
-ordered a load of Halloween decorations - not Christmas, but as soon as Halloween is over its full steam ahead, so sort of

Playing my Christmas CD whilst I do the housework when I drop lo off at nursery later lol

 

[Kate&Lucas]

Made a proper start on buying!!
I'm done for my sisters, got 3 down for Lucas and I'm itching to buy more but I'll try to refrain for now. It's got me SO excited for Christmas though!

 

[Mazzy17]

I printed off a crochet pattern for tree ornaments and am looking for wool

 

[motherofboys]

I bought mince pies. Hopefully once everyone is asleep tonight dh and I can watch a Christmas film and eat a mince pie or two.
I also have to wrap Ds4s birthday presents so although not for Christmas it will get me feeling Christmassy. Last week when I wrapped ds2sbirthday presents I had to stop myself from wrapping any more for Christmas

 

[Miss Vintage]

Sent my OH my Christmas list

Froze waiting for the bus

Mother - your dh must love Christmas, I don't think mine could be persuaded to eat mince pies and watch a Christmas movie in October, although id love to!!

I bought more Christmas presents today and feeling really organised! Am having ivf in late November so want as much done before then as possible!

 

[motherofboys]

He is as big a Christmas fan as I am thankfully.
And wishing you the best of luck with the ivf

I woke up yesterday to a dusting of snow outside. Gave the day a real Christmassy feel, it's mostly all melted now though. I think tonight I'll watch a Christmas movie while DH is a work and once the girls have gone to bed. Probably Elf for the 197th time.
