    My DGC are growing up too fast as well. DGD started school last month!

    In other coincidences I also have a friend with a famous offspring - I'm seeing her on Friday and we also need to get our flu jabs.

    Have a fab Sunday :)

    Also made a start on Christmas.
    Not too worried about it as I am cutting way down.
    I have my mums & part of my DS's.

    Graduation to think about first anyway :)

    I know what you mean about the DGC growing up too fast. My DGD2 is 6 months old and has already grown out of the snuggly newborn phase. My 3 year old DGD1 is so grown up too and my DD2 says her and my son in law are definitely not having more DC. My DD1 is a career girl and doesn't have a partner so not sure if she will ever have kids.

    Good plan to get organised for Christmas. When do you go to Australia?

    I go to Australia the 1st December ES. My son is a career go getter , I don't think he will ever settle down until he is in his late 30's
