Dh-either a gun or hunting bow, he hasn't decided.

 

Dd5-

Puppy (we got him a couple weeks ago, but he was for Christmas)

Pjs, electric toothbrush, fuzzy socks

Oversized jaguar toy (she loves jaguars)

Playmobile castle

Her own baking/cooking set

Two mosaic art sets (she had asked for a dolphin or orca craft? These were the only things I could find lol)

Book set about animals

 

I was trying to stick to the want, read, play, need, but it kind of evolved because I also wanted to add create and learn in there. So ours is create, learn read, want, play, need. Lol

I'll start by saying I know this is obscene.  I went a little nuts and so did some other people...

 

I have 2 girls who are about 7.  They are getting:

 

about 100 books

about 50 educational DVDs

a real bow & arrows (to share)

Power Rangers play sets

a junior-sized ping-pong table

gymnastics leotards / shorts

clothes from Justice

microscope

rainbow loom stuff

movie DVDs

DS game cartridges

pajamas

probably other stuff I'm not remembering or don't know about yet....

 

I also bought them a new desk and chair which was set up over the past week.  They don't think it is for Christmas, but I do....

 

Miss E's birthday is in a couple of weeks, so I may pull some of this stuff out for that day.  Though we already told her we'd go shopping for new bathing suits etc. for her birthday at Disney World....

LOL!  Most of them were in sets, conveniently boxed together.  ;)  I did not wrap them yet.  But, I bought a number of rolls of different green paper, and my thought is to wrap them up in chunks and stack the books and DVD sets up like a Christmas tree.  LOL.  Topped with the booklights I bought.  (Forgot to add the booklights above . . . and the knitting stuff . . . I'd better stop now...)

I bought my 6 year old niece Legos and some American Girl books.

 

My husband is getting the converse all stars I found for him for $1, Theo's 85% dark chocolate bar ($2) and whatever else I find for him today with the remainder of my $10 budget for him. $10 is our traditional limit for each other but my husband violates it shamelessly by getting me something just because near but not on Christmas. Occasionally I have violated it but not often or by much. I keep the spirit, if not the letter, of the law.

Almost-6-year-old DD is getting (all from her Santa list):

 

Zing Air Hunterz Z-curve bow w/extra "arrows"

Roller skates

Soccer ball

 

plus stocking stuffers (coloring book, new coloring pencils, hair accessories, bracelets)

 

From grandparents she is getting:

puppet theater w/Peter Pan character puppets (hangs in a doorway with a tension rod, so it won't take up too much space)

a few Thornton Burgess books

 

We *try* to limit gifts for the kids to three - one from Santa, one from Mom & Dad, and one from sibling.  Our 2-year-old DS is getting an extra one this year  ;)

 

(My book-gobbling DD would love to get 50-100 books, but I don't know where we would put them!  We're seriously running out of book storage space right now.)

 

DH is getting some guitar-tuning items that he purchased for himself, and I am getting a book that I purchased for myself.  Normally we do better on gifts for each other, but we'd like to spend less this year so we just got token gifts so that the kids see us unwrap something.

Calico Critter sets - 3 families and 3 furniture sets. :-)

Our youngest is nutty about the Calico Critters! He has a few families and he carries them around with him everywhere he goes. He's getting the treehouse, camper, car and several families from us. My parents bought him 6 other families and accessories, so he's going to be loaded! I'll have to get him a carrying case to carry them all.

 

Our 6 year old dd asked for barbies and baby dolls this year. So, she's getting a Barbie house with a whole mess of dolls (collector dolls from grandparents) as well as a bitty baby from AG with some accessories and a crib. She's getting Lego Friends Dolphin Cruiser, and some smaller books and puzzle type gifts as well.

Oh and these are just the gifts from us. Our family keeps it small as far as gifts. My mom got the girls a gift certificate for roller skating lessons, and I have no idea what my in-laws got them yet.
