    Aww baby Princess Lily Woo what a lovely name... My son happened to see the pics and wants to know when I am having another baby - he asked for a brother and said he can share his bed and his toys, his dad is no help - he said "you can have one for me son" How do I shatter the dream of a 5 year old...

    My little princess is fianlly here. She arrived on thursday at 14.21 by c-section weighing 7lb 4.5oz and she is called Lily. we came home 22 hours later as i couldnt rest in hospital. Were both doing great and were all so in love with her.

    Did a few more bits of Christmas shopping today. We went to a steam rally and while I usually complain about all the market stalls, I managed to find -
    Handmade soap, one with Lizard for BM's stocking, one with a Pig for my youngest sister as part of her present, £2 each, smell divine!
    BMW keyring for BIL who is in love with his new (OLD) 5 series and won't shut up about it so am going to do him gift set of BMW bits.
    Lovely necklace for younger sister as part of her present, £1.

    Found the guy with the engraving stall who was there last year and got him to engrave a replacement of a glass he did for my Dad's 50th last year, that got broken a few weeks later. He cheekily wrote Mark 2 on the bottom which I thought was funny. £3 for that, that'll be his b'day present this year!
    For my younger brother who'll be 21 in a few months I had a pint glass engraved for him with a message and picture of a globe (he likes travelling and was all I could think of as his interests). £5, including the glass, which I think is a bargain and it looks lovely.

    So all in all, very pleased with that little lot! Now looking for more BMW stuff on ebay (any excuse)...
