So glad that this silly season has come to an end, there is such a big build up, so much money spent plans made and organisation thrown out the window. Then its over, just like that...
Im excited to settle down into routine again, appreciate the little things and focus on my expanding family in the upcoming months ( 66 days to be exact ) .
December was busy, chaotic and stressful, but fun.

For myself I would not have gotten through December ( or any month for that matter ) without a calendar! Everything gets jotted down on each calendar in the house... Yes I have more than one. Another thing which I should have done months ago but it happened in December was getting re-fitted for a bra. I was having the worst back pain and since being re-fitted and purchasing some new bras as well as a bra extender for some of my beloved bras at home, the back pain has subsided dramatically! Lastly hubbys t-shirts come in handy. Keep this between you and me but whenever he gets given a t-shirt whether it be for Christmas or a birthday, I get to claim it. These over sized t-shirts are perfect for lazing around the house, being pregnant and sleeping in! That's if your dating a real man... Girls these days not being able to wear their boyfriends baggy t-shirts is so shitty, they are all skinner than them to bastards!

The most beneficial product for Charlie this month at currently 21 months of age, was snack size containers (I will add image below) . I always had an empty one in his nappy bag for whilst we were in the car, it made those easy sneaky and super unhealthy take away stops whilst travelling super simple. I would put a few things at a time in their and it saves handing him one chip or nugget, ect, at a time. If your into buying in bulk like me its also handy to make your own snacks in, I buy nuts, energy balls and dried fruits and mix them up in the container for trips or even at home. Since Christmas I have also found that the large silicon style bucket tubs are perfect for all those toys being left around! I now have one in our lounge and one in his room. Now this last favourite for Charlie might be just a personal preference but what the hey. I couldn't get Charlie to enjoy wearing thongs, they were tight and uncomfortable UNTILL I got him actual havianas, well a'fucking'men.
