I'm about to start my shopping....I will be doing it all online & want it all done very soon. With a bubs due around that very time me thinks it would be a good idea to get in now.

I really can't wait to put our train up as DS is just soooo in love with trains atm...he is going to adore it. We too will have no family with us as we are in remote QLD & they are all in SA...can't travel with a bubs on the way. So I sadly admitt we are thinking of going out for lunch as I'm not sure I will want to cook....esp with the way the weather is here atm, it's going to be HOT!

I'm getting excited about making things this year. I've just found the most gorgeous reindeer cookies made with ginger nut biscuits...think i'll make some for Playgroup closer to Christmas, oooh & found snowmen made of marshmallows, too cute.
