Not necessarily CR--what are you getting your kid for Christmas?
I am completely brain dead and need to get on the ball for Christmas. The g'parents are all bugging me about what to get LA for Christmas. My mind is blank except for a tricycle with a handle. Santa is going to give her a playroom so DH and I are giving her a table/chair set.
Help! Mama needs ideas!!

Re: Not necessarily CR--what are you getting your kid for Christmas?
Click me, click me!
Mia is getting a ton of doll clothes from the great grandmas. She is really into those Madame Alexander dolls that are like 18 inches.There where the same size clothes as the American Girl dolls. The Grans have been getting together to sew.
So cute.
Mrs Claus aka me is making her a big treasure chest of dress up clothes. My family goes a little insane with the gifts. So I don't want to buy to much. Last year she got a tricycle, play kitchen, and every other toy on the planet earth. Being the oldest of 8 kids means my daughter has a lot of Aunts and Uncles.
Books are always a huge hit. So there will be quite a few of those under the tree.
Regular Lego and some Lego storage, some Melissa & Doug food sets (brownies and ice cream), a puzzle and a board game. I may make felt food. If people ask I'm suggesting regular Lego (he plays with those and Duplos but he's maxed out on those) or board games. Plus if he gets Lego I can play with them too
DS loves this game http://www.amazon.com/Can-Do-That-Games-Curious/dp/B001P4J01U
I'm still brainstorming/shopping but here's my list so far (2 of my girls have December birthday so some of this is birthday loot as well):
DD1 - legos, Razor scooter, Hello Kitty scrapbook set, books, some clothes for her AG doll, bed for AG doll
DS - Imaginext Batcave, Cars playdoh, legos, books, Cars geotrax
DD2 - Diaper bag, cradle, baby doll high chair, stuffed Elmo, books, Little Tikes shopping cart
DD3 - mozart music cube, Sophie, clothes
(m/c 1.17.07, m/c 5.15.07)
DS - 03.15.08
DD2 - 12.03.09
DD3 - 3.28.11
I'm making DS a playmat for his cars.
I think, when they ask, I'm going to tell anyone who asks that he wants a new wooden train set (I found one on Amazon I like that looks pretty nice) and any Disney movies we don't already have. He has so many toys now that he doesn't need more and he hasn't outgrown anything since last year.
MIL and my grandma usually give him money for college (grandma gives him savings bonds).
