Holiday shopping and questions for you guys!

How many of you have started on your Holiday shopping? I have a lot of people I buy for and I love shopping for other people, so I usually get started early like end of October early. This is the first year with my DD too, even if she's to little to care or understand lol, so I'll be buying tons for her as well.

I guess I just wanted to know how many of you have already started your shopping and if there's anything in particular you're really thrilled about either getting for someone else, or hoping you might get something in particular?

We're making the great-grandparents and MIL photobooks for Christmas, and my mom will get a Calendar, full of baby photo's. I know they'll love it, so I'm particularly excited about finishing those and wrapping them up for them.

What about you guys?

Re: Holiday shopping and questions for you guys!

  • I have most definitely started Christmas shopping!! Mostly online shopping! I have started to get my 5 month old nephew a bunch of cute outfits and a baby's first "Cardinal" Christmas (we are huge Cardinals fans.. Go STL). My MIL I have gotten her the book "Wicked". I bought SIL a cute tote with photo inserts. Just a bunch of random things!!

  • I started too!  I have been picking up a few things everytime I go grocery shopping (It's the time I get to shop alone) and I have been doing a lot of online shopping too! 
    I'm determined to make up for last year when I waited until last minute for everything and just couldn't find my Christmas spirit-I'm FULL of it this year!!

  • I'm almost done, but I start in late August-ish. We went on a vacation for our anniversary, and finished off my inlaws while there. All I've got left are stocking stuffers, and one thing for mom.
  • I didn't start until this past weekend...and I still have a lot to go. I wish I had started earlier, but hopefully I'll still have all my shopping done by the beginning of december.

  • I really shop all year round...if I see something for someone, I just buy it.  I am typically done with all holiday shopping by December 1st though.
  • I try to be pretty much done by the beginning of December...but this year I've barely started. The next 3 weekends (with the last being post-thanksgiving) will probably be when I do the bulk of my shopping.
  • I have much less to do this year since my family is doing a gift card grab bag and charity donation. I need to buy for DH's side, and am starting to place things in my amazon cart, but I haven't pulled the trigger just yet.

  • I'm such a procrastinator but I have been online browsing a ton in the hopes that this will be the year I finish everything early! 

    Those photo books sound lovely though :) 

  • I've started and I'm nearly done. I have to buy for H's family but we're not doing the gift exchange until Thanksgiving so it's out of my hands. I've already finished wrapping most, as well. I love getting started early so that I don't have to worry about it in December.
