I'm Currently Feeling: | Presents OK so i know it's early to be thinking of CHRISTMAS but i need some help...
As Grape will only be a matter of a few weeks old.... what do i do for presents.
I dont want to spend excessive amounts on crap that i know wont get used by Grape and the fact Grape will have no idea of what is happening
Would love to have some input, as will be thinking of buying sooner rather than later
Ta muchly |

I'm Currently Feeling: | to be honest nothing , maybe just a few toys really. Much to young to know whats going on all baby will be iontrested is feeding sleeping and pooping! I would buy a few toys and clothes but Not really worth it as baby will have lots of that already bought for her i would of thought! |

I'm Currently Feeling: | I wouldn't get anything! Ours is due dec 9th and it's not like they'll know. I doubt we'll be getting any for ourselves either as we'll be super skint from Feb onwards. Maybe something useful if you really want to get something? |

| I was talking about this the other day! my little man will be approx 3 months so will probably be fasinated by the lights anyway!
Im only going to buy him afew toys although i know hubby will try to sneak in afew more bits!
I think the following year will be the one when lots of money gets spent because he can play with things then! and it'll be fun! |
