At first it did seem a little surreal that one of my friends was going to have a little person (we're not grownups yet, surely!), but now it's just plain exciting!
Something else to look forward to will be in a few years, when I can proudly show the little one beautiful pictures of her Mummy getting waaaasted** :) teehee.
This has also recently meant fun times in shops I wouldn't usually go into/avoid...baby item shops!
Everything's just so small & soft, it's hard not to want to buy everything in sight! In the end though, I managed to narrow the gift-buying down to this;
I think if I could just spend silly amounts of money & borrow someone else's baby for dressing up, the company for the job would probably be The White Company. I would love to post some pictures of the bits they have online, but they're all GIF images...so go check out the website!
Actually, having a browse around the 'adult' part, there are quite a few things that would make lovely Christmas presents.
I especially like the "Home > At Home > Home Accessories > Small Solid Clear-Glass Tealight Holders". (Hint, hint).
*Also, a handy tip shared by both The Mother & The Grandmother; when you've got morning sickness, eat ginger biscuits & drink ginger beer!
Speaking of Christmas, it's that time of year again - the annual Christmas shopping routine of mild panic (don't know what to get/who to get for/how much to spend), followed by an almost euphoric (interesting definition, no?) feeling when you find something that's just right. Then a general feeling of smugness, provided this has all occurred before Dec 23rd.
Oh, I bloody love Christmas!
