Blimey Emma - that pile of toys will be bigger than Kyra!!!
My DD is 7 - still believes in Santa, hopefully she will for a couple of years yet.

Basically at Nursery they teach the children to sign along with the nursery rhymes so he occasionally sits there doing the hand signals and we have no idea what he is doing so it helps us out....also we'd like to teach new Monkey to do them with Kacee so that they can communicate with each other before new Monkey can speak properly.

Thats a great idea Cap'n - I think I'd be a bit concerned about new monkey and Kacee ganging up on me using their own language though

Yeah i wasnt meant to buy much as part of her present is the trip to DLP.

I want Kyra to believe in Santa forever, what is the age they usually stop believeing?

Lol! That would be kinda cool though. I'm just worried how Kacee will react to the new Monkey.

I think it varies really - I was about 9 I think when I stopped believing. I think it also depends on when they get told by their schoolfriends . We were always threatened with never getting any pressies ever again if we blabbed to younger children - that worked!

Have you maybe thought of treating yourself and Robert to something that you wouldn't be able to afford/warrant buying.

Something like a new telly/dvd player/digital camera??

 

[mummyal]

It sounds like a nice little lot of presents! I know who Darby is, but I don't know who Buster is???

Bob xoxoxox

Buster's her little puppy. A very cute little thing!

Can't remember whether I've told you guys this or not but a while back, Louise wrote her Christmas list. So I thought that was that. Then Monday last week, it was her last ballet lesson for the term. So, her ballet teacher asked each of them what they would like Father Christmas to bring them. She said 'an easel'. I was like... where did that come from? That's not on the list nor has she ever said anything about an easel . Anyway, I told her last night that I have already sent her original list off to Father Christmas (and also Adam's - he didn't ask for anything, he just drew something on the paper. So I told her that I've put his name & age and that he's a boy, so that he'll get a boy present). I couldn't wait for her to send it coz it's nearly Christmas and the letter might not get to Father Christmas otherwise. This is so she doesn't/can't add anything else to the list. I told her that the easel request came a bit too late as the list has already gone and Father Christmas won't get to know about that.

We don't really need any of those things.... Robert's got a widescreen tv in Barnsley- It's old but works perfectly well, our camera is only 10 months old, and we watch DVDs on the Playstation....

I'm currently planning on buying some pillows and bedsheets so we have a full set of bedding for when we move out. And maybe some towels (Yes, I'm truly living on the edge! )....

Must be off to get grumpy pants now! Bye all!

Wow, she's one lucky girl !! I've gone over my set budget this year. Usually I try and stop at £50-60 as I can still get away with that. But I've bought Louise the two dresses from Disney USA and I had to get her more bits to even up with Adam's lot lol.

I have spent about £200 on Kyra maybe even more her digital camera and vsmile without the games were £50 each when i brought them.

How about something indulgent like a chocolate fondue set/chocolate fountain

Have fun with grumpy pants and I'll probably not get back on until after DLRP!

It adds up so quickly without realising, I spent £70 on DD so far and she only has a few things so far.

Bye everyone

Love to you all
