So Christmas I think it was the biggest thing to happen since my last post..
I has been so sad about Christmas this year, I love the way we do Christmas as a family, get dressed up, play games and have a right good laugh! But this year it was decided that we'd go to our partner's families this Christmas as we havent done so before, me and Ant have had 5 Christmases together at my families! But in my defence, his family dont usually manage to have a day on Christmas day.. like this year!
Anyway, I had no reason to be sad because Christmas was as awesome as every year! We went to Mum and Andy's the week before Christmas so we could all make it and we basically pretended it was Christmas eve/day/boxing day.. it was perfect.
It started a little different to usual as mum was up and downstairs which NEVER happens! Then Connor and Emily came down to do stockings and eventually little by little every joined.
We did the usual sitting in the living room and exchanging pressies, oh I forgot.. it was also different because I wasnt hanging! Neither was Erika as we're both pregnant (cant remember if I'd mentioned this in earlier posts) But Erika and Adam having twin boys!! I'm soooo excited for them.
We then did the fancy dress outfits which is always hilarious. Mums was the funniest cos she says every year she wants an outfit that she can still do her hair and make up in.. last year she was Donald Trump so had a wig and bright orange foundation hahaha..
So we're waiting for her to come back in with the outfit on and you can just hear her moaning 'Oh for gods sake!!!' and so we're waiting anxiously for her to come in..
She finally waddles in in a penguin outfit, it was so fricking funny!!! She's got this big ring round her belly so the costume sticks out and she's got a hood on. The fact she was annoyed (sorry mum) make it so much funnier!
I had a blow up costume where it looked like I was being carried by an alien and Antony was a female life guard.. I will add pics.
My memory is a little foggy as it was ages ago and I swear baby brain is a real thing! So I cant remember the order of things but I know we had a cracking roast dinner.. Connor and Emily had their vegan one and lets just say I wasnt overly jealous! Sorry!
We then played games in the dining room which was hilarious, I end up losing my sh*t and belly laughing every time. We played 'What do you meme' and cards.
We also played a game where you have to draw something and then pass it round to the next person who writes what they thought it was.. then they pass it on and that person draws whats written..
It was hilarious! I am such a bad drawer for one and I cant say that my family are artists either.. although a few were really good. Andy kept drawing them stupidly to throw us off. Was such a good laugh!
So moving onto mine and Ant's Xmas, this was really really lovely, I am obviously less crazy these days as I'm preggers and not drinking! So me and Antony took it really really easy going day, it was lush!
We ate brekkie, snuggled on the sofa and did pressies. We didnt go crazy as we're obviously trying not to spend a lot.. but Ant spoilt me as always. He made me cry as well with the personalised baby book he got me, I just love him so much! And I cannot wait for our little family.
