    Henry only had three presents from us last Christmas- a set of clothes, some stacking cups and a Christmas 2010 teddy bear! He was only five weeks old though!

    In fairness though, I would have got more for Alice if I didn't know she would get loads of things from relatives. Alice has five uncles, grandparents on two sides, great aunties/uncles and a great grandad all giving her presents. Plus a few family friends give her things. We actually asked OH's parents to buy sleeping bags for Alice a few times to reduce the amount of toys she would get.

    We're up. Just trying to decide what to do today. I quite fancy Winchester Farmers Market but can't be bothered with the crowds. Might just stay home and make home-made yumminess for my hampers. I will need some eggs and other bits though so maybe Asda first thing.

    Tia- have you tried honey for your cough?

    I'm up... But contemplating going back to bed...

    The heating has gone off so I'm snuggled under my slanket...
