It's mainly about the advent calendars...a few days back I thought I'd be super organised (having ran around the shops like a lunatic last year trying to get an advent calendar at the last hour), I bought a couple of chocolate advent calendars for my two boys. 

Cries of 'but I had that one last year' and 'I don't want Octonauts'....sigh....

To be fair my two little Berries don't usually want for much and I'd firmly put my foot down on one of those expensive Lego Advent Calendars that are around, so they get their own way and a couple of new calendars were purchased.

Said to DH - what should we do with the other two?  He said we should have them - after all we haven't had our own advent calendar's for years!  I baggsie The Simpsons...
