Eeeeekkkkk!!! Magical time.

I'm so excited I love this time of yea

My lg is 7 months and I got her a stocking with her name on, a my 1st Xmas bauble and I've also made a scrabble decoration with her name

Present wise I haven't done loads, a v-tech learning tree, an animal keyboard, the complete hand Cristian Anderson fairytale works, some Disney DVDs and some colour changing rubber ducks

A friend of mine told me I'd been very reserved and she'd bought loads more for her little one, at the time I thought I'd spent a lot

What about you allthingsgirly?

My LO will be 7 months on Christmas Eve. I have a personalised stocking and tree decoration. My grandparents have also had a personalised teddy made out of his babygrows.

I have bought quite a few little bits and pieces. Mainly toys and books. Even bought some pre loved from eBay and Facebook as he will not know the difference this year. Got him a lovely Christmas Jumper too.

Can't wait for Christmas this year. Hope you all have a good one too. X

Bee will be 11 months, so even though it's her first Christmas she has been around for a while now lol.

I have got both of the kids personalised tree ornaments (one with their name and another with their initial - we have 2 trees!!) but other than that I haven't gone too mad. I have got James a few educational bits (join the dot books with pens that wipe out so you can use them over again, clock puzzle to help him learn the time, an abacus) but he also has toys that he has picked himself. Bee has pj's, a few outfits, puzzles, vtech torch, vtech ride and grow toy, soft balls, a pop up tent.

James' birthday is 5 weeks before Christmas and Bee's is 4 weeks after so we haven't gone mad present wise. Totting it up we have spent a fair bit though and have a big pile of pressies hidden in our bedroom. It's been hard with Bee as we have so much from James in terms of books and toys.

We do have a big, beautiful tree in our living room that had about 500 lights and I spend day and night keeping Bee away from it ha. She hasn't got the memo about mummy's posh tree.

God I sound so unfestive? I'm not, I adore Christmas. So excited this year as James is a bit older. He took part in his first nativity play last week which had me in tears, he looked so weeny.

My son is 12 weeks. We have only bought him a teddy, xmas pjs and a personalised bauble. Next year i will get him a personalised stocking like his sister but I didn't see the point this year! My (almost) 3 year old however has been well and truly spoilt lol and I can't wait as this is the first year she really and truly 'gets' xmas!

My youngest was born 6 weeks before Christmas, so for her first Christmas I got a personalised Taggy blanket (pink fleece rectangle blanket with 'lable tags'/ribbons coming out of it all the way around), it was personalised with an Eeyore picture and her name and DOB embroidered onto it.
She also got some Fairy bootees from Next, and I got a new baby sling lol. Don't think she got anything else, not that I remember anyway.

My lo will be 4.5 months old so she got a slumber buddy, a few Lamaze toys, foam play mat squares, some bath toys and books, clothes and pjs. So don't think we have went to mad on her. She got a baby's first Xmas bauble and my mum has a personalised bauble for each grandchild with their name on it
