A is for... | 5 things I've learnt raising a child with Autism

It's almost a year since George was diagnosed with Autism Spectrum Disorder. It's been a roller coaster of emotions, with George starting full time school in September being the most emotional of all, but I can certainly say I've learnt a lot from it.

My Top 5 Christmas Films

I looked back at a post of mine from 2 years ago, and my list still remained the same. I even recycled this photo to save me making it again - ha. I think my top 5 will always be my top 5 as it would take a hell of a movie to replace one of these. They're in date order it's too hard to choose a favourite. If I was forced to choose, I'd probably put Home Alone 2 as my number 1 (I love NYC), but then after that I'm lost. I'll always have a soft spot for A Christmas Carol as that's our family Christmas Eve film.

Home Alone 2 (1992)

Jingle All The Way (1996)

A Christmas Carol (1999)

Elf (2003)

Love Actually (2003)

I bloody love eBay, it's no secret. You should actually see my basket. It's shameful, but I just love browsing and looking for bargains. Here's my pick of the Christmas bargains. All items are linked.

November Favourites

HAPPY DECEMBER bitchezzzz. Soz but I just can't hide my excitement. Despite the fact I didn't even get an advent calendar *eye roll*. So I'm gonna attempt BLOGMAS this year. Meaning a post every single day. I've planned them on my little excell spreadsheet, but whether or not I get time to actually write and publish one every day is another matter. It's the thought that counts though right?
