I like to wear something nice on xmas day too:)

I normally wear some pants or jeans that I have already and buy a new top. The kids usually put on their new outfits that santa brings them;)

Phew, Kai is now safely secured into his door bouncer.....he has just slipped and bashed his face on the floor now!! I have never had laminate with a crawling climbing baby before......and never will again!!!

Oh, change of plan.. OH is going to strip the rest of the wallpaper in Rhys' room (I thought he'd forgotten) and then he's going to sort out his computer room apparently - best get the black bags ready! Will go to his parent's tomorrow.

Oh Brill...tell him to remind my dh that the boys room needs doing!! This is the only thing, with Kai being so mobile can't leave him for a second and he is not content to be strapped into things for more than 10/20mins anymore:rolleyes: It means that everything has to be done by one person!

I did that last year, started in about October:p each week just added one/two items in the usual shopping...made christmas a lot easier on the purse:) Although for some reason I haven't done it this year

You are extremely organised SM. While not the most unorganised person in the world I am never sorted early for christmas...one year, would have been ds1's 2nd and ds2's first xmas, we ended up in argos on xmes eve because we hadn't got the boys any toys!!! We ended up with a very limited choice but as they were only litte it didn't matter too much and ds2 was only 2mths old so his toys were more for the benefit of ds1!!!!

I was a bit annoyed with myself and we haven't had to do that ever since, although I think this year is going to be a bit of a last minute jobby!

mel its only because one year we had to do zoes 1st xmas (technically 2nd but she was 3 days old so dont class it) on xmas eve as i had to wait for a loan from the DSS to go through i remember standing there crying when it went through from shire relief although my mother took £40 as i bothered it to get by and she wouldnt wait ... i vowed that would never happen again thats why im so annoyed this year x
