| I am not getting too much as Lily has lots of things already and dont want her to be spoilt (hope this does not sound mean ) Also her other family members will buy her loads So far we have got her lots of books, wiggles dvds, hungry caterpillar big pop up book, princess shoes and tiara set, peeka lau lau (its scary!), hungry caterpillar floor puzzle, pajamas and a wooden pull along ninky nonk. We also got yesterday the tag junior reading thingy and a book - does anyone know if these are any good? Does anyone know if the vtech laptops are worth getting - was not sure as they say age 3? I might get her a couple more little things but have already got more than i intended to. Hadnt realised how much until i started listing it here so thanks for the post as it may restrain me from buying more!! Oh and also hungry caterpillar cup/plate/bowl set to eat xmas dinner off! |

Bethany really loves building things at the minute too, so hopefully, she will love these Lisa. Kate - I was looking at the V Tech laptop today too and that is something I think we may get Bethany as well. |

| So far Chloe has got a kitchen, a doll set and a playhouse to go outside, I know from other people she's getting a mini Hetty hoover, a table and chairs that doubles up as a water table and sandpit (from next) and a slide
We're not buying her much more, just stocking fillers as she gets so much from other people, it's just too much otherwise. I do wish grandparents would stick to one present, i know that sounds really ungrateful, but sometimes it just gets a bit too much |

| From Santa Caitlin has got- A doll that crys/talks (£12.99 argos) A talking Zac Zingzilla (£16.97 tesco) A magnadoodle (£10 tesco) A box of megablocks (£10 ?) 5/6 books (mix 99p- £5 for a disney princess one with wand, asda/tesco) DVDs (ice age, strawberry shortcake, kids mix- all from b&m, £2-3 each) ITNG peg jigsaw (£6 amazon) ITNG talking book (£13 amazon) Bath Crayons (£3 tesco) Mini disney princess aqua draw x2 (3.50 each tesco) Mini keyboard (£3 ?) Musical instrument set (£3, boots) Fisher Price dial phone (£5 asda) Fairy dress up- tutu, wings & wand (£4, t.j hughes) Xmas tree bauble, disney princess (£5 on ebay, personalised) Im actually surprised she has so much. Iv been buying things everytime I see a bargain as I knew money was tight this year. Thats definitley evrything but. Iv spent almost £120 - yikes ! Didnt expect that. Really didnt seem so much spreading it out over the weeks. Though from reading other threads thats quite tame. Id have loved to get her a toy laptop but have spent too much already. A kitchen was another idea but we dont have much space. I am keeping my eye out for a cheap blow up armchair though so if anyone spots one let me know! |

| Sure here it is, http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/Disney-Bauble-Little-Princess-Personalised-Hand-/110602201519?pt=UK_Home_Garden_Celebrations_Occasions_ET&hash=item19c067a9af I bought from the same seller last year and was very pleased, I got the winnie the pooh one. They come in original box and are a good size. The only thing I remember being a bit let down by was the writing was quite small, but then again I suppose it allows for a longer message and it doesnt take away from the bauble. Check out his other items because he has tinkerbell etc too. Santa always brought me an xmas dec and when I left home I had about 30 of my own. It reminds me of my childhood putting them on the tree each year. Im trying to keep up the tradition with Caitlin. x |

Very impressed, I only ordered in on Tue night at about midnight and its hear Thur 10am. Its beautiful, and the writing is bigger than I remember. So happy with it , I definitley reccommend them. |
