Stacey Solomon has shared an adorable video of her and son Rex making a Santa grotto in their garden at Pickle Cottage.
The Loose Women star revealed she started the project with two-year-old Rex after youngest daughter Rose was born in October on her 32nd birthday.
Sharing a reel with her 4.9 million Instagram followers, Rex is seen helping his mum paint the grotto blue.
In another shot Stacey holds Rex – who she calls her “DIY partner in crime” – as they use a drill together.
The pair are also seen rolling a red letterbox up to the finished grotto as Rex shouts: “Santa, it’s ready!”
Little Rex can’t contain his excitement at the lit up grotto as Santa suddenly appears and gives him a hug before chasing him around the garden.

Stacey captioned the video: “Rex May You Never Be Too Grown Up To Search The Skies At Christmas.
“After Rose was born Rex and me started a little project. So for a moment every day it was just us.
“We wanted to make a little grotto out of the shed for Santa to come and visit. We’ve been checking it every day this week to see if he was there and Today he finally came.
“And it was the best evening ever. I have never seen Rex so excited and my heart will never be the same again.
“I love you Rexy so much I’ve had the most fun making our grotto. I know I’ve had another little pickle to look after too and you’ve just been such an amazing big brother.
“I can’t wait to watch this back with you over and over forever and ever. We love you to the moon and back darling boy. My DIY partner in crime. Always. (Daddy was gutted he missed all the excitement.”

Stacey later revealed that fiancé Joe Swash was actually the one in the Santa suit.
Still wearing the outfit as he put an exhausted Rex to bed, Stacey joked: “Santa, you’re really going above and beyond. I didn’t realise this was part of the service.”
In another clip ‘Santa’ is seen putting his feet up as he lounges on the sofa, as Stacey said: “Santa’s really outstaying his welcome. When’s Joe coming home Santa?”
Joining in on the joke, Joe replied: “He’s just popped down to the shops.”
A laughing Stacey hit back: “I mean I know you’re Santa, but seriously get your feet off the sofa.”
