1. What are you most excited for someone to open this year and who is it for? I am excited for my mom to open her gift from us. It's a snowman necklace, she loves snowman and DH found it on Black Friday for an awesome deal that didn't require being there at 4 am.

2. Who do you wish you didn't have to buy for? Out of everyone BIL and SIL were the pains in the butt, but that's over with now.

3. What are you hoping to get this year and do you think you will get it? I did get what I really wanted, but I didn't get to keep it. I love snowflakes and DH got me a snowflake bracelet I found online, but when it arrived he was nervous it wouldn't fit and made me try it on. It didn't fit, he had to send it back

I at least got to keep the snowflake earrings.

4. Do you still get a stocking? We don't have stockings, we use to, but in one of our moves lost them. Haven't bought new ones.

1. I am so freaking excited to just see Ava Nichol go nuts and open all her presents

last year was fun but this year she is going to be so much more involved! I also got my mom a coat I think she will love!

2. We stopped buying for people we didn't want to but I wish we didn't have to do the white elephant at FIL's. I hate buying a meaningless present to watch everybody fight over it. Last year we had 8 people involved so it isn't even a big exchange or anything plus there is so much drama and people get their feelings hurt and other people have to walk on eggshells to be sure not to upset certain people. We are bringing a bottle of booze this year.

3. Well I know DH got me an espresso machine and I am so so so excited for it!

I hope I get some candy/snacks. Last year DH got a ton and I got none.

4. DH and I do stockings for each other and one for Ava Nichol. We do our stockings on Christmas Eve because Christmas morning we all get stockings at my mom's house as well!

1. What are you most excited for someone to open this year and who is it for? My MIL. I got her a lands end reusable wine tote!

2. Who do you wish you didn't have to buy for? My nephew. His dad is the vp of one of the biggest insurance companies in the U.S. and so he has everything he could ever want/need.

3. What are you hoping to get this year and do you think you will get it? a nice camera to take photos of baby R!! and I know I’m getting it from MIL because I picked it out:)

4. Do you still get a stocking? I do, but I fill it myself!<?xml:namespace prefix = o ns = "urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:office" />

1. What are you most excited for someone to open this year and who is it for? I have two. I'm really excited for DH to open his new bow limbs. (He's into archery.) He's really really really hoping he gets them.

I'm also excited for my mom to open her gift from us. She was really bummed I never got her this figurine of a bride and mom when I got married. She's been hinting that she'd still like it. So we got her that. In fact, she thought she was getting it for her birthday last month and was bummed when she didn't get it.

2. Who do you wish you didn't have to buy for? My brother and SIL are hard to buy for, but now that they're in TX and not in our hometown, they usually just ask for gift cards. My MIL and FIL are also hard to buy for as well because they don't give ANY ideas or even the hint of an idea of what to get them. I finally gave up this year and told DH he's in charge of them because I can't think of anything.

3. What are you hoping to get this year and do you think you will get it? I have no idea. I put a lot of random stuff on my Amazon wish list. I'm sure I'll get the books I asked for and some maternity shirts/sweaters I asked for. I'm really hoping for my Snoogle since sleeping is getting uncomfortable. I'm sure my mom will think of something for me that I never knew I wanted. She's really good at that.

4. Do you still get a stocking? Oh yeah! DH and I do them. I love stockings. They're like the present after all of the presents are unwrapped!

DH loves his stocking from childhood, so MIL made me one like it a couple years ago. She also offered to make LO one! Yay! I don't have to!

1. What are you most excited for someone to open this year and who is it for?

If I actually find what my DH wants then he is who I would be more excited about. But if I don't find it then I am really excited about my mom to open her gift. We got her a coach cross body purse that she has been talking about since who knows when.

2. Who do you wish you didn't have to buy for?

Um, my sister is the hardest to buy for but I still enjoy looking for gifts so no one.

3. What are you hoping to get this year and do you think you will get it?

I have been begging for a nice computer and I definitely know I'm getting it because we are going to buy it this weekend. I also want a camera but I don't know about that one.

4. Do you still get a stocking? No, it's a tradition I want to start though.

1. What are you most excited for someone to open this year and who is it for? Hmm... Probably my mom. I got her the ancestry.com DNA kit. She is obsessed with researching our ancestry and I know she's going to be so excited about it.

2. Who do you wish you didn't have to buy for? Probably FIL. I find guys in general harder to shop for, but he's almost impossible

3. What are you hoping to get this year and do you think you will get it? I really just want baby stuff. Diapers mainly

4. Do you still get a stocking? Nope

1. What are you most excited for someone to open this year and who is it for?

I'm excited to see Lexi open her gifts. She has been asking for roller skates and a baby doll. My mom got her the baby doll and my brother got her the roller skates. I also got her a scooter she had hinted at. I'm also excited for DH. I bought him a toy batman car with batman so he can have as decoration (but he can play with it too). I also bought him Rock em Sock em Robots. He's been wanting that for so long.

2. Who do you wish you didn't have to buy for?

My ILs, but that is a mutual feeling between DH and I. After all the crap they pulled on us the last few years, and DH finally realizing how they really are, they are getting a $4 bottle of wine. That's it and will continue so until they decide to grow up.

3. What are you hoping to get this year and do you think you will get it?

I really want a radio for my work since I cannot concentrate without music, and my cameraless Ipod went kaput. I also asked for a watch. I already know I'm getting a Keurig from my parents, along with some coffee as a startup. But that's all I really wanted.

4. Do you still get a stocking?

I have never done stockings, but I started one for Lexi last year and have done so again this year. I fill it up with lip gloss, juice, snacks, candy, nail polish, and costume jewelry. My daughter is a complete girly girl.

@nightmare_of_beauty I wish you had gotten to keep your present.

1. What are you most excited for someone to open this year and who is it for?

-Probably my dad. We got him a night vision monocular. He's been asking for one for the past few Christmases and it's always been out of my price range, but with the help of my sisters, we were able to get it this year.

2. Who do you wish you didn't have to buy for?

-I love buying for everyone.

3. What are you hoping to get this year and do you think you will get it?

-I'm too excited about Christmas and gifts in general to really care.

4. Do you still get a stocking?

-Yes, we still get them from my parents. And we have our own at home that Santa will be filling up with some hot cocoa mix and chocolate.

1. What are you most excited for someone to open this year and who is it for? H because I got him Fast and the Furious 6, and with our new Dave Ramsey plan, spending $20 on a Blueray would seem foolish. So we decided to only spend $20 on each other this year.

2. Who do you wish you didn't have to buy for? My dad. He's just plain hard to buy for. He buys everything he wants, himself.

3. What are you hoping to get this year and do you think you will get it? Well I already know most of my presents. Half of them are already in my garage, but I got a new patio set from my parents that is double the size of my old one. I'm pretty excited about that.
They also got us a gift for H and I together, and I'm a little afraid as to what it is.

4. Do you still get a stocking? Yup, and it usually is full of wine. :-)

PandPMeant2B · December 2013

1. What are you most excited for someone to open this year and who is it for? I'm really excited for DH to open the two onesies I got from LO. I bet he'll cry.

2. Who do you wish you didn't have to buy for? My step son. Not because I don't love him, but because he's a 12 year old boy (hard to shop for, doesn't understand the value of money, and hardly appreciates anything anyway).

3. What are you hoping to get this year and do you think you will get it? Already got my Naked 3 palette thanks to my awesome NSA

No idea what I'm getting otherwise.

4. Do you still get a stocking? Yup!

ljraff29 · December 2013

1. What are you most excited for someone to open this year and who is it for? DH. He doesn't know I'm getting him the new xbox (if I can find it). Originally I was only going to do small stuff, but I figured it'll give him time to enjoy it before baby is here.

2. Who do you wish you didn't have to buy for? my dad and brother. They are both impossible to buy for.

3. What are you hoping to get this year and do you think you will get it? well my dad already bought us the rest of the stuff we needed yo finish our bathroom reno, do that was a good one. DH also bought me a tablet as an early present and I love it. Other than that, I'm not sure what to expect.

4. Do you still get a stocking? yes. DH and I do one for each othet, then my mom and dad do them too. Stockings are my favorite, like the bonus round.

@ljraff29, DH wants the PS4 so bad (I don't know why he doesn't even play his ps3 now) I can't find it anywhere. I wish he would want the xbox one because now all the stores have those here but not the ps4. Ugh lol so stressing.

I know! It would figure right! I actually wasn't diligently checking until DH told me they had them ay Best Buy. It was a last minute change, but I know he'll be so excited. He's mentioned the PS4, bur said he wanted xbox more. I think it's for the online, but I have no clue! Hope you're able to find one for your H.

bridget0117 · December 2013
