Me again. Although I dished the birthday fairies out I can't remember who is buying for Austin and have decided not to look, so that it's a surprise
One thing I forgot to say (if Austin's birthday fairy hasn't already been shopping) is that he loves bells. whenever we go to music group he screams when it comes to putting the bells away. i did mention it to family members to get him some for Christmas - but no one did, and from what I can gather no one has got him any for his birthday either. So just a thought, if you are stuck for what to get him, I know I'm going to regret asking, but he'd love some bells.
Thank you xx

Mummy has said that I can't have any more books yet, as our front room looks like a library, whatever that means...
I got lots of toys for Christmas and quite a few clothes, though I'm doing my best to grow out of them quickly! Mummy would be really pleased I think if she had a birthday card to open, that would be the bestest thing ever

Another update! Shannon is in 3-6 month vests but 6-9 month sleepsuits but they are getting a bit short now so maybe next sizes up?! She's a real slow grower! Shes a bit of a tomboy with her clothes but I do dress her in girly stuff for special occasions! She loves anything that makes a noise and loves dancing. She has a few cuddly toys but nothing 'brand name' if you know what I mean! She only watches football with her dad so hasn't really watched cartoons to know what they are so anything like that. I've only just realised what itng means so I'm clueless there! She loved opening her xmas presents and playing with the paper so maybe she might have progressed by her birthday to actually playing with whats in the paper! Can't believe how quickly the time is going! x

please no 'stackers' or shape sorters as she has a couple of each of them, and she also has lots of peg puzzles, unless its itng or tubbies
she loves itng tubbies, fifi and peppa pig - she can even says piggle when she sees anything to do with itng, its her first 'proper' word, although she says mum and dad she doesnt exactly associate the names with us, but she does with piggle lol
apart from that same as before really she is a funky monkey and will need age 12 months plus

Have discovered that austin loves 'in the night garden', Nathan has been having it on in the evenings when I'm out before putting him to bed and he loves it. I saw for myself yesterday when it was on how much he loves, he sits laughing, smiling, clapping and dancing to it. Don't think I've ever seen him enjoy a programme so much.

Mummy told me to come here and tell you ladies what I like, cos shes really busy talking to Santa at the moment. I'm confusing her lots with my size at the moment, I'm really tall but quite slim, some of my t-shirts are already 12-18 months and she dresses me in skirts and dresses because it doesn't matter if they're a bit short
By my birthday I might be in size 18-24 tops, but probably 12-18 dresses. Socks and shoes I'm already in 12 month plus coz i have big feet lol So good luck with that, fairy I love to play with my toys (mummy says I have too many but she still buys me more, I don't get it). My favourite programmes are PEPPPPPPA PIG!, Fifiiiii and the flowertots, In the Night Garden, and Dog The Bounty Hunter. I like to read books and chase balloons around, and pressing things that make beeping noises or have wheels on. I LOVE winnie the pooh or anything with him on.
I don't use many toiletries, just the basic stuff from Johnsons or Boots (even though mummy sells lots of beauty products to her friends, she won't let me use them
).Look forward to getting something from my fairy!

Esther is in 9-12month clothes, so will probably be going into 12-18mth around about then (though bigger PJs/vests as she wears cloth nappies) and Mummy likes purples & pastels mostly tho been given other brighter colours I've liked. she seems to have inherited mummy's sensitive skin & we avoid SLS (sodium lauryl or laureth sulpahte) and parabens in bath products. currently we use Halos & Horns but she's open to others, though bear in mind she shares a bath with her big brother most nights so too girly a scent wouldn't get much use. musical instruments welcome (tho not tambourines we have enough of them). hopefully dvd player will be fixed/got new one by then as they both have dvds for their Christmas stockings! she likes ITNG (getting an Upsy Daisy mini plush in stocking & her brother will have Makka Pakka), Teletubbies (soft toys for those 2 welcome but got enough other soft toys) & Bob the Builder (her brother has plenty of toys & dvds of him tho). Room decor mostly WtP atm.

Thank you so much angel alison!!
I think we have it all covered for finley for xmas and birthday but mummy likes nice t-shirts etc and possibly some new bibs or funky socks, he wears the size 3+ socks and by then will be almost in 18-24 months!!!!!! oh heck!!!! Big boy
Other than that he likes anything that moves or makes a noise!
infact think mummy needs to ask santa for ear plugs!! Lol

Thanks Alison for doing this!
Ruby is very easy going! she is just getting into 9-12 month clothes, so anything over that size would be fine. Toiletries are probably the only thing that we don't need - she gets those from mummy's shop!
Otherwise Ruby would love what her fairy chooses for her!

Thanks Alison!
What would Shannon like when she is a year old? I haven't got a clue! She is in 6-9 month clothes now with plenty of room so maybe 9 -12 by then! We decorated her room with winnie the pooh and loves tigger but she has more cuddly toys than a toy shop so no more please! This is so hard! If only she could say something other than dada! I'll have to have a think and post later x

Hi all
Well you should all have recieved your secret birthday details
Shall we say minimum spend £5? As Annanjoseph suggested in the previous thread if we wait until the January Sales we should be able to get more for our money (so still spend £5 but get a better present for the £5 - hope this makes sense?).
Last year a few people didn't recieve their Secret Santa presents. I am also having major problems with my post this year, so can i suggest that we all send our presents by recorded delivery? That way we can make sure that our ladies recieve their gifts.
When do you think we should post the presents by? Shall we make sure that presents are posted by 10th January? That way we can ensure that Sarah's Morgan and my Austin recieve their presents in time (as our little ones are the oldest that are taking part)? What do you all reckon? Once you've posted your present could you please pm me so that I know it's on it's way to your lady.
I also think that we should post on here when we recieve them (not when we post them).
Please don't say who the present is from as you are being secret birthday fairies
Hope this is all okay with everyone?
*************************
Can everyone also post to say what they would like/dislike for their little ones, and also what size clothes etc they require if they would like clothes brought. That way we can make sure that we are buying a present that our baby would like.
Thanks everyone
