    Bday is 2nd jan

    Need a couple of decent presents - stocking (mmmm) fillers are fine.
    I would do two - a family photo now (or one that you already have of the three of you), and a family photo when Bear2 arrives. A sign of the growing family, to be kept for years, etc. etc.

    A day trip to a spa - although you need to be careful about what she can do (as I found out!).

    Get a babysitter, take Mrs away for the day, doing something that the two of you used to do, but don't any more (NO - not that ), to make the most of the opportunity. Even if it's just a day of leisure doing nothing, it's a better gift than an "item" that she could have bought herself.

      OK - final thought on what to buy....

      Have a look somewhere like etsy and find something that's handmade - just gives you a little bit more of that personal touch rather than mass-produced.

      A friend of my wife makes some gorgeous hand-made jewellery if you're interested.

        Seems I've scared everyone off with my present ideas.

        Bet you're all crying at how sweet I am, and wondering what could have been, eh?
