Stolen from GP. Gifts!

Re: Stolen from GP. Gifts!
1. Ninja blender. My mom did a lot of research to find me something I could make smoothies and baby food in, and I'm so excited about it!
2. Date night! MIL gave us movie tickets, Starbucks gift card and cash for dinner and of course offered complimentary babysitting.
I only had one gift that I wasn't a fan of. Brandon's grandma gave us a few nice gifts, but also gave us some baby shoes that she got at the thrift store she works at. They are brand new but a really old style, like 90s. So those will e going back to the thrift store. Lol
DH got me a touch screen computer. I loovee it!! He also got me a camera, I was absolutely shocked about the camera!
My mom got me the new Marc Jacobs Honey perfume and new high heels. Love them!
Our big gift to each other was a super nice 75 in tv. It's awesome.
I got real spoiled this year and I just love it all!
About those shoes, I would be "returning" them too. Lol. And date night sounds awesome. Enjoy it!
FAVE! - DH gave me the "Love You Forever" book from Baby Hack. - - I also got about 7 or 8 maternity shirts! I'm so excited to have practically a new wardrobe! Yay! - - DH also got me Viva La Juicy perfume that I've wanted for months. - - MIL and FIL bought LO his crib mattress, changing pad, and a bunch of other stuff.
LEAST FAVORITE - Hmm...I'm not sure I have any I didn't like. I only have to take two things back but that's because one is a shirt that is too small and another is a sweater I already have. Not bad!

The Rowdy Roberts
For me:
Love-My espresso machine DH got me
Love-My origami owl necklace from Ava Nichol. It has a plate that says mama and a heart in Ava Nichol's birthstone (aquamarine)
Love-Mom took me shopping and bought me clothes that fit my after baby body and that fit my staying at home with kiddo lifestyle.
For us-I got DH a weight bench. My mom is giving us their treadmill, old TV and DVD player and we got a yoga mat. So we have everything ready to turn our cabin into a workout room!
For Ava Nichol-I love her Nabi tablet. She keeps saying "I play, I play" and she loves the counting games the most.
For Ava Nichol-She loves her easel and it gives her an organized place to color whenever she wants.
Dislike
For me-A sweater dress that fits me funny and the security tag was still on, chopping mats that they rolled up to wrap so now they won't lay flat, and MIL gave us a leftover stenciled wood sign from the ones she made to sell. I would love one from her but she didn't make one for us which is clear by the writing on it which doesn't really fit us.
For Ava Nichol-This obnoxious cheerleader doll that sings slightly inappropriate cheers and is so loud, A box of random bear nick nacks that don't really go with the "woodland theme" collection I was telling this family member about, and a pulling toy that is probably about a year too young for her.

Love: my in-laws got us a video camera, which we're super excited to have in time for LO's arrival! (i.e. to commemorate the trip home from the hospital, NOT for any amateur birth videos, lol.)
Hate: nothing, we had a great Christmas
Other good gifts : ipad(Shared gift between dh and I) new camera, new set of towels, and a quilt made out of my late grandmas shirts.
