Oh jeeze.. well, this is everything we got for Will.. Keep in mind that this list consists of stuff from us, my IL's (who sent us a check to do their shopping) and santa..haha
A few trains from Thomas the Train
Spongebob Memory Game
Thomas Memory game
Crayola Art Center Tub thingy
A huge playdough set
Chutes and Ladders
Candyland
PJ's
Zippity thing that plugs into the TV so he can dance and play games
Fishtank light thingy
A stars and Space light up alarm clock..
RC Car
A Cars Pillow
Cars blankets and Sheets
A 3' tall Mickey Mouse (stuffed)
I *think* that is it. I know that I want to get him a V-tech laptop but not sure if I will or not. Maybe I'll let my IL's buy it..
Oh gosh - we are pretty much done - we got
puzzles, cars racetrack, lawn tools (play), easel, legos, dress up clothes, dinosaur set, safari set, cars 2 movie, four or five board games, "my first" scooter by radio flyer, clothes, new pajamas, t-ball set, Mater remote control car
Plus my Mom got him a train table and we'll buy him some new tracks for that.
I think my MIL got him the Leap Frog Tag Reading system and is buying him a table for his play room
He gets SO spoiled and I think this year being the first Christmas since my Dad died means we're going to try to deal with our pain by spoiling each other.
Both my kids got PBK Anywhere Chairs (well N got a new monogrammed slip cover for his) This is all C is getting. Because come on, she's not even 4 months old yet.
N also got a kitchen set and fake food, plates, bowls etc to go it, a Woody doll, and a CARS stuffed pillow thingy. That is all. No need to go overboard. I really want my kids to really learn the true meaning to the Holiday season so I need to start early with not going crazy with the gifts. Grandparents are making deposits into each of their saving accounts. My kids will thank me for it one day
Also, they'll each get stocking stuffers.
This is what we're getting E for her birthday in March! I'm hoping well have found our new house by then so I know whether to get it to match the hypothetical game room, or to match our living room furniture!
We're getting her a few small toys

I'm thinking about getting the FP tea set and possibly some wooden blocks.
Some more Lifefactory bottles (I realize this is not really a *gift* but it's our excuse to get them since we LOVE them and they're expensive) http://www.amazon.com/Lifefactory-Bottle-Silicone-Sleeve-Spring/dp/B003CJSXWI/ref=sr_1_1?s=baby-products&ie=UTF8&qid=1322624583&sr=1-1
I may get her a stainless steel dish set, like this http://www.amazon.com/LunchBots-Childrens-Stainless-Dish-Set/dp/B003KN27QO/ref=pd_sim_sbs_ba_1 since she'll be starting solids next month.
Also, clothes. Any excuse to spend money on clothes!
We are thinking of getting Zach a walker and some learning toys and some clothes.
To be 100% honest I am having trouble thinking what to get him, he is not quite 3 months yet so I am stuck. I keep thinking of getting him toys for as he gets older but i don't know. Any suggestions?
ETA: We went shopping tonight and we got him Twinkle Twinkle Little Scout, Bumbo, Soft blocks(they have letters, numbers and pictures on them), Baby neptune soother, Baby Lullaby DVD, Shrek Christmas DVD and a 123 Crawl along snail. And will be ordering a walker online and I am also thinking of getting him Sophie the Giraffe as a stocking stuffer. We had a $100 visa gift card so we got him more then we probably would have if we had not had the gift card.
Thank you, I think we will def go with the walker, we were looking at some last night
I agree 100% with you on this one!
Santa is bringing Blake a little tikes basketball hoop...one that can adjust with his height. (This kid is definately his fathers son...yesterday we turned on the tv and all they showed was an empty football field and he yelled out "fooball!!")
He will also get a ride-on toy/trike...havent decided which one yet.
Carly? I dont know...I bought her some clothes, but honestly she is inheriting everything from her brother and at 7 weeks, she doesnt need anything other than clothes
