So pathetic......
« on: December 13, 2009, 07:28:55 am »
My 2 year old is spending the night at the grandparents so I can........




Go to the Christmas Demo  :D :D :D

Once it would've been a massive night out because I also don't have to work tomorrow.   It is a sign of my age and the power of my thermie!!

I hope so Cookie **exasperated sigh**
I did my zoot tonight. Miss 3 has been playing up lately going to bed and not going to sleep. So by 9 I'd had enough (she's usually in bed between 7-7.30). Threatend that her Chrissy present was going back to the shop and that Santa's elves were watching and were going to report back on her behaviour. Its a shame I had to resort to that but it's seemed to have had the desired affect.

ILB - Miss 4.5 bedtime routine gets longer and longer.  Then every now and then, we have to do something similar and pull it back to normal.  Then gradually, it gets longer and longer again.  At the moment it's about 30-40mins so will be time to shorten it back soon.

Thanks everyone. Christmas worked so well last year... but this year she's just too skeptical on the elves checking her....

Cathy - glad I'm not the only one.

Faffa - her birthday is May, so between May and November I'm in no-mans land.  :-))

If my boys were naughty  I used to tell them that Santa would take a pressie out of their sack & replace it with a potato. One year they had been arguing a lot just before Christmas so on Christmas morning there were a couple of potatoes in their sacks!! ;) ;) I overheard the younger one say to his brother "I wonder what he took out. Next year I'm not going to be naughty all year!!"

LOL - sounds like the Italians with Epiphany - if the kids are good they get lollies and sweets, if bad they get coal - a potato is less messy.  Imagine whatt fun they could have with coal !!!!!

oh this is brilliant.  Daughter is a bit young at the moment but will remember.  Did it work the following year??

Glad to see there are others out there enjoying the same type of night outs.

It was the christmas demo and I had told husband to take some money out so I could buy some cookbooks.  $50 later  :-[  I didn't buy the christmas one because I thought it's fine I will survive without it, and then at the end I wanted it and we didn't have any money left (we had already raided the car's coin stash  :-)))

The following year the youngest one opened his Santa sack & yelled " NO POTATOES THIS YEAR"
