Amazing christmas family time day two

Yesterday we had an early Christmas with my nephew and his mum and dad.

The front room was filled with presents and when opened toys. He got some really amazing toys that he loved and a couple that were just massive in size.
One of the great things about having a child around at Christmas is that it makes it really exciting and magical.

A small amount of the his presents

While he was here as background we had Christmas movies on it was so amazing to see his face light up at the magic of Santa and his reindeer.
From me he mostly got books because nanny, granddad, mum and dad were all getting him big toys so i didn't want to get even more toys.
He got a massive outdoor monster truck, a big car transporter with cars, cars, new trainers, a paw patrol sketch pad and a paw patroller lorry.

I received a three owl ornaments from my nephew and his mum and i absolutely love them.
My nephew was so funny when it came to his dad opening his presents the second he started my nephew would tell him what was inside.

hear no evil, speak no evil, see no evil owl ornaments

Something that was really nice was the Christmas card from my nephew he had done some artwork at school and they had it made into Christmas cards. i think it;s such a great idea and so personal, something that can be kept and saved.

As a surprise present for his parents he decorated Christmas biscuits and gave them to them and he was so pleased with himself when the said they loved them.

after dinner for desert we had some Christmas tree chocolate chip sponge cake which my nephew devoured in seconds.

Christmas is probably my favourite time of the year and to get to spend it with my nephew it just the cherry on the top it was so much fun and at the end of the day he didn't want to go home which is always a good sign that he's enjoyed himself.

All photos are mine.

Amazing christmas family time day one

Today my nephew who's three came over today and it feels like every time i see him he's grown up immensely. He is such a bundle of happiness and joy, we spent today watching Doc McStuffins, making amazing creations out of play dough, making and flying paper planes, painting and decorating Christmas biscuits.


At the moment Doc McStuffins is one of his favourite things to watch when he comes over to our house. Doc is on as background most of the time while we are doing our activities.
I brought a pack of decorate Christmas biscuits for him to do the other day from Iceland, and he had the greatest time decorating them. He was allowed to pick the type of icing he wanted on his biscuits and had a great selection of sprinkles ( quite a few of which ended up on the floor). We decided that because he is coming over again tomorrow for a early Christmas that he wanted to save most of them to share with his mum and dad ( he came over alone today as his mum wanted to wrap presents) as special presents for them.

Last time he came over I brought him a couple of pots of play dough which he LOVES. He also has a collection of cutters. 

 Towards the end of him being here he found one of his uncles paper planes and oh my god he had the greatest time playing with it and making his own. Every time he made it fly the happiness and excitement from the fact he did it was amazing to see.

I am so looking forward to the early Christmas to see him opening presents (which we told him that the reason the presents are here early is that Santa's sleigh gets too heavy so he had to drop some of this off early at nanny's house) as it's probably the first time he actually understands what to do. We are also having a Christmas dinner which everyone is looking forward to.


Tomorrows activities will be up tomorrow.
