Anyone else been thinking about christmas??............

Yesterday I was caught with the ARGOS book, making lists for the kids and families pressies.

Don't know if it is because the weather has turned nippier...........but it just dawned on me that it isn't that far away.

Maybe it was the smell of the central heating, or maybe the selection boxes in ASDA, but it definitely happened to me the other day.

I always look forward to Christmas though, and this year looks like no exception.

ooooooooh I love Christmas.........have got some pressies already have got my cards and some pink wrapping paper for Emily as well as blue for the boys! how sad! ?I love the build to it and my favourite day of the whole year is Christmas eve, I try and make it as magical as I can. One year Neil and I put Sam to bed and a little later when we knew he was still awake we played a sleighbell wav file on the PC just loud enough for him to hear, his face was a picture. I also buy that shiny xmas confetti and sprinkle it everywhere when they are in bed they thinks its santa dust!!

I've already got my xmas wrapping paper and cards but i got to start buying the pressies soon i've got too many to wait until xmas eve like what i used to do! I normally wait until Septembers over because i've got 4 birthdays in September and too expensive a month to start then.
