  • I'm xp-ing from GP

    I really want some new Dansko clogs. My fake ones are split completely on the bottom near the ball of my foot. 

    And honestly, for cheesiness I just want to have a happy Christmas. The past 3 years have been completely horrible. One we found out my nana had brain cancer, the next we found out DH had azoo then our kitty died, and this last Xmas Josh and Zoe passed away. I'm so over Christmas. I just want it to be "merry" again.

  • I want cuddle to be merry. And.. My house painted, a new kitchen, and slipper socks. Dh wants a go pro. Oh, and I want a spice rack, but not until I figure out my new kitchen. It's pretty bad that I buy what I want all year, I don't really WANT anything. Just upgrades to our home. And a Toyota Highlander.

  • DH and I decided not to give each other gifts this year and to put the money we would have spent towards baby stuff. As far as what we told our parents, we just asked for money from the ILs and I asked for a few small things from my parents but mainly gift cards. We're not difficult to please!

  • XP-ing from GP too.  Also, ditto that I want Cuddle to have a Merry Christmas!

    DH and I don't usually exchange lists because we both hate telling people what to get us and don't like knowing what we're getting. DH has seen me drooling over the new Urban Decay Naked 3 palette, so hopefully he got the hint. I could also use a floor length bubble jacket for my first winter in the Berkshires, but that's something I wish I didn't need, so I don't know if I really want it. Other than that, some baby/maternity stuff would be nice.

  • DH and I were discussing this and we really want to get ourselves a nice camera. Ours is a junky $130 one and it doesn't take very good photos.

    I want to be able to take good pics of our baby!!

  • We have to buy a washer, dryer, and fridge for the new house, so that's our Christmas present.  I don't want to spend money on those things, but we have to! :-p

  • DH and I don't get each other gifts. We usually pick a night close to Christmas and go out for dinner and have a nice date night together.

    I don't really have anything I need or want right now. If I had to say something, I would say gift cards to get myself some new clothes. Pretty boring.

    I also would love for cuddle to be merry! : )

    This exactly.  It's the only thing I can think of.

  • DSLR, makeup, water bottle, winter coat, iPhone armband for running

    For E- so many things! Books, shape sorter, coupe, puzzles, slide and climbing gym, infant swing, cars, bath toys and lots more.

    I could hold you for a million years
    To make you feel my love.
  • I really need a watch. That's pretty much the only thing I told DH to buy me. I have also mentioned gift cards to Michael's and Joann Fabrics. Maybe gift cards to go clothes shopping. I'm boring.

    What I really want is a Keurig and all the fixings to it. That's our Christmas present from my parents. 

    DD has been asking for roller blades consistently for the last week. Looks like I know what I will buy her. Other than that, I will buy her some movies, 2 toys, and books.
