Gingerbread House Building!

Yippee! Christmas is coming - and I saw Santa doing some shopping the other day! There are only 36 sleeps left until Christmas, or that's about 844 hours. I've been doing lots of shopping with Mummy and Daddy and Lottie, but I don't really like it as it makes me hungry. The best thing was that Daddy and Mummy to us to McDonald's for lunch because I had been a good boy. Daddy and I have also been busy making a gingerbread house cake. Daddy built the house as you have to use melted sugar as cement and it is very very very very very very very hot. My job was to decorate it using lots of sugar icing, smarties, jelly sweets and marshy-mellows - little ones and big ones. I made sure that I ate lots of sweeties too - for quality control purposes. This was our practice house and we have already eaten lots of it now, but we are going to get another one in time for Christmas (which is only 36 sleeps away which is about 50,659 minutes as I'm typing this.) Mummy finished the house off by putting a gingerbread man in the house looking out of the window. Daddy then made up a song "There once was a gingerbread man, who lived in a gingerbread house. He had a gingerbread cat that chased a gingerbread mouse!" Daddy is quite good at making up songs I think.
