@Darren_Mooney I literally have a child named Matilda, though. Have never participated in any Dahl-fandom equivalent to the HP thing. Feel like most kids really into Dahl became English lit majors like me 😂
@clhubes Stockings are filled with little unwrapped gifts from Santa. All big gifts from Santa are also left unwrapped in a designated place for each child… Santa does NOT wrap gifts! That’s how they know what’s from Santa and what is from Mom and Dad!
@clhubes We have some very tasteful Minnie Mouse items from Gap Kids, like a jean jacket with a Minnie patch and a blush pink Minnie sweater… most character clothes are cheap and tacky!
@clhubes@Shaunahue Almost named my baby Gertrude! Went with Matilda instead. Her sister (4) is Louise and, weirdly, I know three Eloise’s that same age. Old lady babies!
@realgirl_fieri Such a rude awakening last summer when I went from having one almost-four year old (and joyfully carrying a tiny purse without any kid stuff) to an almost-four year old and a newborn. The amount of STUFF it takes to go anywhere now is insane.
@clhubes Moved from Austin to Fort Worth last year and have an almost four year old. “No gifts” was standard in Austin. Only seen it on one invitation in Fort Worth. I still bring a gift, even when it says “no gifts” 😂
@JennieMacLean@rossmac_d@clhubes Yep. @ marthabalbright. I haven’t updated it in ages— these pics are my new house! Very lucky to be a SAHM and take on projects of family and friends when I have bandwidth and time.
