I have got lots of things planned, I'll list them here just to motivate me to get them done so I can woo hoot about them another week!!
.
* Plan to put the tree up this weekend.
* Plan to decorate this cool wooden Christmas bauble garland with the kids. I am going to let them help me paint and decorate them (I know I am brave!!). I'm going to cut the string off it though and then once they have been decorated I'll tie ribbon on each one separately to hang on the tree. Aaron will get a kick out of it I'm sure (and Maddison will probably lick the paint!! will have to keep her dummy in hehehee).
* Really wanted to participate in Ali Edwards December Daily Album, but just had a bit much happening with holidays, kits and such, so it wasn't a happening thing. But I keep thinking about it (a lot!) and I've decided I will start one from when Grandma arrives till she leaves, so it's a daily album of our time with her. Think that will be quite cool. Have stocked up on chipboard, now I just need to pull finger and make the album!!
* Have a list of things I want to make for Christmas presents (that's real progress for me just having a list!) so now I have my head sorted with what to do ... I just need to do it!! Maybe magically I can get another 10 odd hours a day to do all this stuff!!
.
Okay that's about it. I really need to get scampering and finish this other LO that's sitting on my desk and maybe make a card or two or five :-)

great list Rachel, oh I like your xmas ornament wreath the kids will have fun with that. Oh homemade iceblocks are a fab memory....and Miss M looks pretty content with hers.
I think it's priceless that you are getting away with PLAIN WATER iceblocks ... go you!!
FAB idea to just use water for those ice blocks! Unfortunately my kids are a bit too old & wise, and are used to having ones made from juice and/or yoghurt ... which really can be messy at times! Sigh! Since your kids are none the wiser, I think you should keep this up for as long as possible!
Freezing jelly is quite good because they don't drip as they melt. The color can still be a pest though.
Whe you work out how to get those extra 10 hours pls LMK because I need them too! I am squirming at the list of stuff I need to do before Christmas and Puke....
