It's my DS birthday Christmas Day, he'll be 19.....so Happy Birthday to all the Christmassy people, they so often get forgotten at this time of year xx

I quite agree....my sister will be giving a joint birthday / Christmas present to DD2...she wouldn't do that for anyone else so shouldn't for her.

I ended up going to M&S at 9.30pm last night as I realised I'd run out of birthday paper....had loads of Xmas paper but refused to use that even though she's only 2 and won't know. Then as I was bringing everything upstairs again after finishing wrapping at midnight (did xmas wrapping too) I found the 'in the night garden' paper I forgot I bought last week!:mad:

Happy Birthday to your DS for Thursday...hope he has a great day.

we survived the shops, just having a cuppa and then will find my list and see what I have to do. My two are currently sulking as they have been told no telly or xmas music until their bedrooms are tidy (they were cleaned last week so arent too bad but you would think it was the end of the world!)

She was due Christmas Day!!!!:eek: Fortunately she was 2 days early.

My DD was due on the 14th, but refused to budge. They wanted to book me in to be induced on Christmas Eve would you believe. I refused point blank so they made it for the 28th.

But DD had other ideas and arrived like a whirlwind on Christmas Eve morning IYSWIM. And she's continued to be a little whirlwind ever since.;)

Your right they do get forgotten. No one is allowed to give DD a joint Christmas and birthday present. It has to be seperate and in birthday wrapping paper as well.
She sees her brothers and sister have a birthday during the year and she has to wait so long for hers IYSWIM. So it's only fair.

Happy Bithday to your DS for Christmas Day and to all Christmas Birthday Flyladies and Christmas Birthday Flylady children.

:bdaycake:HAPPY BIRTHDAY
Oh, I can now here raised voices, swearing and lots of banging coming from the upstairs desk construction area:rolleyes::rotfl::rotfl::rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:
