Christmas crackers

I hope you have all had a happy healthy Christmas. If you haven't had heartburn, the runs or been sick you didn't do it right. Dunno if you care but i got the heart burn and shaun was sick.
Let me give you a breakdown of my first Christmas with lottie. Christmas eve was mental. Its a lot different when you have a little one. Family and friends suddenly give a shit lol. Only joking it was lovely trying to fit in seeing everyone. Even though we spent like 3 days out the house going here their seeing everyone lottie just took in in her stride. Never crying or getting fed up of being past around, and taking naps between visits.
We managed to get sat down around 7 on Christmas eve. With our mummy daddy and baby elf pjs  on, and the Christmas tree yankee candle burning. Don't rush out and buy it tho guys, It smells of nothing. We had the perfect night as a little family and I couldn't wait to wake up and open our pressies together. But lottie didn't get up until 9.40, so me and shaun had breakfast just the 2 of us and opened our presents together as we couldn't wait any longer for lazy bones. I didn't expect much for Christmas. As now we have lottie I understand people will just want to buy for her.
But I still got loads. And guys I got the diamante tissue box! And makeup so on Christmas day my face was so shimmery I could have been blamed for light pollution. I was just piling on the glitter, gloss, highlight and sparkles. Also does anyone else get tetchy when they start seeing all the cute wall calendars arriving in the shops around December, and your itching to buy one but have to put your trust in other people to deliver the goods? 1 year i got 3 another year 0. Its like your putting your whole 2019 in someone else's hands. Because if you risk it and don't purchase one until after Christmas your going to be left with some random shitty thing that nobody else wanted. Like 12 months of trains. Imagine starting the month with a picture you hate. Your doomed!
But hallelujah santa delivered the goods. Its the same with toiletries. December you walk around smelling like a bath bomb. Using up all the body lotions, shower gels and mini hand lotiotions. Ready for the re stock on Christmas. Guaranteed If you don't use it all people have got you. And you end up with more stock than boots.
And if you do use it all, nobody will buy you any. And boxing day will come and your washing with the old bar of imperial leather from the back off the cupboard. Wondering what the hell have people been thinking this year? Who doesn't go to boots and buy a boat load of 3-2 bath sets? Don't we all? Think of the points and you get to keep all the free items. Win win so if you ever buy for me, as difficult as some think I am a baylis and harding gift set will do me fine! Because apparently I’m hard to buy for, I even brough a Pandora bracelet to make people life’s easier. But nobody ever got me a charm till this year. Thanks nana!   So to sum up my gifts santa you did good and sorry for calling you fat in my last blog.
When lottie finally got up. The pile of gifts was never ending. She was truly spoilt. The biggest gift we brought which we thought was amazing she just cries at every time we turn it on. And her favourite thing is a £1 wooden block. So with bucks fizz for breakfast and me resembling the head of a glitter ball it was of to my mums for diner. I've not had Christmas diner with my parents since I was like 17. I think they stopped inviting me because I have a face like I'm chewing an onion most of the time. But I'm laughing on the inside guys honest.
All was well we had an m&s lunch WOWZER! When I saw mum pinging it in the microwave I was thinking " oh no this is just going to taste like one big weight watchers ready meal". But it was far from it hmmmmm the Brussel's!!! Then dad did a homemade quiz. Which was fun, even though me and shaun lost but its the first quiz we have ever done where we have answered all the questions.
The fun really started at 8pm. Due to the fact I couldn't drink last year because I was pregnant I just got absolutely shit faced and threw up all over my mum and dads house. JOKING! That was shaun. Who I ended up leaving at mum and dads. But that's the last I'm saying on the matter.
So here we are. Boxing day. The christmas tree yankee candle that smells like fresh air is back on and all is peaceful again. The house is a state and I have no idea were all this stuff is going to live. For those who read mums poem on my last blog. She loved it! I think the reason she cried wasn't down to the words it was the fact they was all spelt correct. Proud mum moment. I've never been a good speller. Can you believe I was kept behind from all my friends at school because I couldn't move forward from spelling my name. They was all at university and I was still sat with Mrs Parker in year 2 learning how to spell Chelsey Leigh Bingley. So if you learn anything from me think short and sweet when naming your kids.
So take it easy and gear yourself up for new year! Enjoy you left over turkey sandwiches.
P.s if you are a lover of books like me get Catherine bennetto- how not to fall in love. I’ve been reading it over Christmas and it  so funny. If you are a Sophie kinsella chick flick girl then get it. And if your not still get it! I love the characters. Especially the mum she’s just your typical mum. Super funny doing all the predictable mum stuff with outbursts of anger towards Her daughter ex boyfriend!
