OMG Where has the last month gone?

OK, so December is nearly over and Christmas is well and truly done so wow another year nearly over.

I generally think that Christmas is a success if no-one packs and leaves home on Christmas day so this year went with a huge bang. We had some friends over for Christmas lunch and apart from the 4 month old baby being a bit grumpy, everything went very well. I drank far too much bubbly and fell asleep on Goth Dad at 11pm trying to watch a DVD.

I always stress too much in the preparation and then it's all over in a flash. Next year I will be starting my preparations a whole lot earlier and trying hard not to stress as much.

So this year's presents were lovely, we got cash from our parents and with a bit of savings bought ourselves a new TV (Sony Bravia LCD - YUMMM). Little Miss got many much and her favourite are currently a carage with cars to zoom around and a Sportucus dress up outfit. Really I do have a daughter!!!

Today we were having a serious conversation (well as much as you can with a 3 yr old) about whether she would be a firefighter when she grows up or a swordfighting actor / stunt performer. She really wanted to be a knight, go figure!
