Well the last week was another busy one for the 'My Darlings and Me' household {hence the lack of blogging that I always feel guilty about}. Preparations are well under way for Christmas. I'm currently obsessed with introducing lots of new traditions for our little family so we can have the best Christmas ever. I had a brilliant childhood and my mum and dad always made Christmas so special and magical... which is what I want to do for Oliver and Lydia.
I squeezed in a spot of baking of course. Last week it was my turn to host the team meeting at work {the host has to bring in goodies for the team to eat!} so I made some chocolate brownies and rocky road crunch bars which went down a treat.
Anyway, hopefully my lovely Instagram photo montage will give you an idea of what we've been up to.
~ We kicked off the countdown to Christmas by visiting our village's Reindeer parade ~
~ I made some mini bunting which will go on our Christmas tree ~
~ We had fun playing with glow sticks. We made them into necklaces, bracelets and
Oliver loved his giant earring! ~

~ Lydia had a tummy bug so I had a few days of cleaning up sick, non stop washing but lots of cuddles ~
~ I finished off making my Christmas cards... very pleased with how they look ~
~ We had lots of fun on a shopping trip to the Trafford Centre in Manchester ~
~ Their decorations are amazing and Oliver was fascinated by the massive Christmas tree
that has a face on it and sings Christmas songs ~
