Christmas in the U.K.


We spent the bird's first Christmas in the Shire with family.She was really spoilt and handled a lot.
We got some vegan cookbooks, i got a knitting book-yarn bombing,we got food,g got beer,the bird got so many clothes,play mats,sooty and sweep puppets!,books-she loves books and she had a blast with all the wrapping paper,she even pooped some out.
It was nice to spend time with g's family for a change as we stayed in his mom's lovely house this time,i don't think my mom was impressed but it had been planned that way for a year so it wasn't like it was sprung on her and she was over every day to see the bird. We were surrounded by lovely decorations and food.It inspired my to go all out this Christmas even if it's just for the three of us,although people are welcome.g's sister had a cool book that i've bought for inspiration-The Christmas Book by Sheherazade Goldsmith.So i need to get on it,this year i don't want any of that guilt that comes with being a disorganised pooro,people need presents and gifts.i still haven't thanked everyone that sent baby gifts and she's six months,i know that's terrible,the guilt is slowing me down.
