Christmas... - Page 2 Ages & Stages

We went all out this year on birthdays so it is going to be a small Christmas.

I have a few Wii games I have been stockpiling with sales and some Littlest Pet Shop for DD. DS I always just have to wait on, as whatever he asks for will be very specific, hard to find but usually not too expensive. LOL!

I really liked doing an activity or event as our big family gift last year. DD really enjoyed her hockey class far more than any toys she's gotten in past years.

Usually DH and I either buy something for the house or go on a mini family vacation as our Christmas present, and I've enjoyed that very much.
The kids haven't said much about what they'd like for Christmas. Poor Brady always gets the short end of the stick, since we pretty much already have every toy ever made for ages 0-2. They're still pretty young, so they're fairly easy to shop for. However, Josh will ask for about 5,000 worth of stuff, and Matthew will ask for about $20 worth of stuff-- very specific, and if you can't find it, you might as well not show up to Christmas.

Susan!

Jeanne- I remember that happening to us when Nick was little. It was hard to buy for him.

Ryan has asked for Lego and Nick wants anything Disney Cars. Em just wants money. LOL dh and I don't buy much for each other, other than stocking stuffers.
