I can't wait for the boys to get really excited! x<br /><br />Online Mum, Happy Christmas to you too. A few decorations have helped. My MIL can't understand why we're not having a proper tree, but I know my boys and it wouldn't stand a chance! x<br /><br />Maternal Tales, aw thank you for sympathising. I'm feeling a bit better now and looking forward to when the boys are older. xsanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12004801243819162845noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3629523777912990939.post-4453666033857779862009-12-10T22:21:20.947+00:002009-12-10T22:21:20.947+00:00I'm such a bah humbug as well. I'm really...I'm such a bah humbug as well. I'm really not into Christmas at all, but the children are starting to get excited so I need to curb my non-enthusiasm somewhat. I just always eat too much, drink too much, have too much washing up to do, spend too much, etc, etc. There. Does that make you feel any better? You're not the only one! xxMaternal Taleshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04075679022964297682noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3629523777912990939.post-27885584752036490532009-12-10T20:09:01.142+00:002009-12-10T20:09:01.142+00:00Know what you mean about the kids being too young ...Know what you mean about the kids being too young for Christmas trees, 3yo had the joy of his 1st Christmas tree this year. We thought he was old enough to not tear it down on an hourly basis. He loves it, and it has made me feel more Christmassy! It'll come to you - fret ye not!

If the boys knew it was Christmas I would be excited with them. x<br /><br />The Mad House, the little tree on the sideboard is a good idea. I think that would be a good compromise. Oh I can't wait for the boys' first nativity play! You brought tears to my eyes just thinking about it :-)<br /><br />Glowstars, but I've already got my own collection of gaudy decorations! Yes, this year the presents are very cheap!<br /><br />Mwa, you're right, I will! :-)<br /><br />Fraught Mummy, off to read your post now. I can send you a photo of our neighbour's light show so you can see what you're missing.

Relax and Christmas feeling will come. I have just been in tears at MaxiMads Nativity and have mini's on Friday. I dare you not to feel all christmassy with 70 children either with tinsel on their hair as angels or tea towels for the shepherdsJen Walshawhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07374363403295342745noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3629523777912990939.post-63088988804645037092009-12-09T15:27:46.700+00:002009-12-09T15:27:46.700+00:00In a couple of years and they'll be overbrimmi...In a couple of years and they'll be overbrimming with excitement by now!
