I suck!

So far I've bought Emily 'my little hungry caterpillar' mini books.

That's it!!!!!

My excuse is my 30th is at the end of Oct, I've had to buy a new dress, shrug, killer heels that are going to literally kill me. I need to keep £70 for my cut/colour/curl and pin up. Money for drinks. (apparently my meal is being paid for) getting my eyebrows down but an old school friend is doing that so it's only 7 quid. Having a mini party here after the meal so I'll need to get drink in.

I think that's a fairly good excuse?

After that though I have heaps to buy. Not getting Emily alot though! I still need to buy a new tree and new decorations as well because I chucked everything when I moved.

Oh the thought of it makes me want to cry - soooooo expensive!!!!!

Still nothing :roll: although I was chatting to mum earlier and she said to get her and dad a joint experience gift thing, so if I do that then I only have o/h to buy for. As for baby, not too sure what I should do. I was thinking of waiting til closer to the time for that one. If he/she is here for Xmas then Defo will get something but with no idea on when he/she will arrive it's hard to gauge. Will probs get something in just in case

Ive got nothing so far and no ideas!

Husband expressed interest in the new kindle, but seeing as we already have an iPad I'm not sure it'll get used much. I suppose he can use it on the train commutes

Haha think I've just talked myself into the first pressie! Not being anything yet though, got hubby's 39th birthday to get through first and I've booked us flights to Edinburgh for the weekend staying in a suite in one of their poshest hotels - costing a bloody fortune...wish I'd thought about that at the time!

I too am feeling mega smug. Baby is due on 4th December and I have a 2 year old daughter so didn't fancy trailing round the shops while mega pregnant. Loooove the internet. Check out the vistaprint calendar offer - excellent present for the doting grnadparents and also snapfish, they do fabbo photo books, thats both sets of grandparents sorted. Bluecross for the animal lover relatives and then finally amazon and ebay for everyone else. All presents present and correct! Just got to wrap them all now, grrrr
