The twelve days of Christmas

Me and Charlie have been working on our version of the twelve days of Christmas, let us know what you think!

On the twelve days of Christmas Charlie showed me:
12 extra ideas to add to my very ong Christmas list
11 Christmas cards to write to some of Santas elves
10 Santa reindeers : Dasher, Dancer, Prancer, Vixen, Comet, Cupid, Donner, Blitzen, Rudolph and last but not least Stanley!
9 twinkly lights on the special little Christmas tree in our room
8 mince pies: the number Santa has already eaten (lets hope he doesn't over do it this year, otherwise he won't be able to fit down the chimneys on Christmas Eve, just like last year!
7 Christmas crackers all ready out on the table
6 humps: well there are 3 camels and they have 2 humps each, that makes 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6 humps
5 golden chocolate coins (yum 3 for me and 2 for Charlie)
4 cheeky monkeys: I think they are back to steal my camera. I need it to take pictures of all the presents I'm going to get. Santa if you are listening I've been sooooooo good!
3 wise men
2 bikes: well both me and Charlie are hoping
1 cheese and pickle sandwich (phew I'm hungry after all that)
See you later, keep being good, remember Santa will be watching

Ooooooh it's nearly Christmas!

It's been really exciting this week.
Steve came home with the tree, it's huge. It's the biggest one ever!
When we got into the living room Steve had to chop a bit off the top otherwise the angel which sits on the top would have been in my and Charlie's room (we'd have liked that - but Mandy wasn't very keen about having a hole in the ceiling - booooo!).
When the lights were in position, Stanley switched them on, as usual.
We all agreed, it's the bestest tree ever!
I wonder what lovely presents Santa is going to be bringing this year. I've been soooooo good!
Not long to wait , now! Check out my website www.haroldtheplatypus.co.uk to keep an eye on exactly how long it is going to be before the big guy arrives.

We saw Santa!!!!

We've been spending the weekend with two of our biggest fans, Ella and Isabelle - they're princesses actually but I don't like to name drop. Because we can't spend Christmas with E and I we had an early Christmas day with them on Saturday - I'm hoping we are going to fit a few more Christmas days in before the big day on the 25th!
It was great. We went to Santas grotto, there were elves and everything! Ella sat on Santas knee and he gave her a present. We then all had our photo taken with Santa, which was very exciting. I managed to give Santa my second Christmas list. I remembered that there were one or two things I missed off the list that I asked Mandy to post to Santa a few weeks ago.
I must go and check out my website www.haroldtheplatypus.co.uk to see exactly how long it is until Christmas day.
Off to find a slice of lovely Christmas cake from 'Celebrate with Kate's cakes'.
Later tater
