Hi all

Mo - sorry to hear about your mum.
Nic - I remember now that your gran died soon after T was born. I think too that she was waiting to meet her great grandson.
Trish - you'll get this after you get back but hope you have a great weekend away. Seems like you are putting that caravan to good use.

As for Xmas present - we have got L a swing/slide set. It was in the Target sale a while back. Actually its on raincheck and it still hasn't come in. Hopefully it will make it by Xmas. Thinking I might also get one of those clam shell wading pools/sandpit things.

Been going through L's toys to see what I can put away. He has so many toys that I really don't think he needs anymore for the time being. The kid has sooooo many teddy bears and soft toys. His latest is a penguin called Chilly - so cute.

Have to say I am really looking forward to Christmas this year. Now that L is older and interested in everything he will be so much more engaged with whats going on. DH even suggested that we go to a Carols by Candlelight.

Does anyone have a Christmas tradition that is special for their baby? Or looking to start one? Apart from getting a photo with Santa every year, each year I am going to have L choose a tree decoration. We started it off last year with a "baby's first Christmas" bauble, but this year I want him to choose one for himself.

Anyway, got to get ready to go out and do the grocery shopping.

Catch up with you all during the week.
