Re: Gift idea poll

  • 1.  What is on your Christmas list this year?  Mine is lame.  I decided to spend my birthday money on either a Keurig or a back massager so those are off the list now.  I will probably purge our house and see what needs replacing and that's what I'll ask for.

    2.  What do you plan to get DH for Christmas?  We don't exchange gifts but he has a cordless drill, magazines, jeans, tennis shoes, and several other tools I can't remember the names of on his list for our parents.

    3.  What do you plan to get your kid(s) for Christmas?   We got him a Tag Jr and books, a wooden tool bench.  I will probably wrap his new bedding as a gift as well.  On his list for our parents is more books, slippers, a doll, toy animals (not babyish ones), real looking planes and trains and outdoor toys.

    4.  My child will be 16 months on Christmas Day. What are good ideas for his age?  Does he have a Cozy Coupe or a wagon?  Evan got a toy kitchen last year (HUGE hit!) with crocheted food from MIL.  ANything that he can play pretend with.  Trains, dolls, real looking cars/trains/planes.

    5.  What do you plan to get your parents for Christmas?   My mom is getting necklaces with the kids' birthstones on it that Amy is making (obviously #2's will have to wait).  I'm unsure about my dad and an additional gift for my mom.

    6.  What do you plan to get your MIL/FIL for Christmas?  FIL is getting this VIkings canvas thing we found at Target (NMS but he'll love it).  I'm not sure what else we'll get MIL besides the same necklace my mom is getting.

    Boots that he asked for, some new clothing items, on his list for family he asked for gift cards to Harley or Lowes, a couple tools

    3.  What do you plan to get your kid(s) for Christmas? n/a

    4.  My child will be 16 months on Christmas Day. What are good ideas for his age?

    Something he can ride? idk, I'm interested to hear ideas though since my youngest nephew will be this age at christmass

    5.  What do you plan to get your parents for Christmas?

    I am getting my mom some clothes and scent warmer/melts, my dad we are getting a custom flag case made for his dad's flag he received. Then probably something for his motorcycle

    6.  What do you plan to get your MIL/FIL for Christmas?

    No ideas yet really, something "grandma" for his mom, maybe a necklace. For his step dad he asked for some tools, his dad and step mom-no ideas yet.

  • 1.  What is on your Christmas list this year?  Gift cards to Lowes/Home Depot for ramdom stuff I want to update around the house, new curtains for the living room, Target gift cards for stuff to re-do the spare bedroom

    3.  What do you plan to get your kid(s) for Christmas?  books, blocks, clothes

    4.  My child will be 16 months on Christmas Day. What are good ideas for his age?  I don't think you can ever go wrong with books.  Or a fun coloring book?  Seems like my little sister got my nephew this cool water color thing last year - you hang it up on the wall and "paint" with water, but it all stayed on the paper - no run off or anything

    5.  What do you plan to get your parents for Christmas?  All of us kids (there's 4 of us) went together and got her a new flat screen TV

    6.  What do you plan to get your MIL/FIL for Christmas?  I might attempt to make this with some of the photos of us all:  http://pinterest.com/pin/224255197/

    1.  What is on your Christmas list this year?  Pioneer Woman cookbook, new shoes... beyond that I'm stumped.

    2.  What do you plan to get DH for Christmas? Probably nothing.  He can barely come up with a list for my family, we don't do gifts very often.

    4.  My child will be 16 months on Christmas Day. What are good ideas for his age?  Ride on toys are always good.  A little basketball hoop is fun, mini race track.

    5.  What do you plan to get your parents for Christmas?  No clue!

    6.  What do you plan to get your MIL/FIL for Christmas? Not sure we'll exchange gifts again this year given employment status.

  • Lisa, get the kid a kitchen!  For real, he will love it.  Best investment we ever made... (or rather, Grandma & Grandpa made).

  • 1. What is on your Christmas list this year?  Nothing yet.  We decided this year to keep it really simple.  We are working on Dave Ramsey plan and I would rather go simple to save money and put it toward other things for the future.

    2.  What do you plan to get DH for Christmas?  I will probably put together a calendar of the kids for his office.

    3.  What do you plan to get your kid(s) for Christmas? For Saw we are keeping it simple.  I'm buying one of those push single wheel toys, a little drum, a few books and maybe 1 or two other toys.  For my skids.....clothes and books.  Toys are on the way out since they are getting older (11 (almost12) and 10 almost 11.

    4.  My child will be 16 months on Christmas Day. What are good ideas for his age?

    5.  What do you plan to get your parents for Christmas?  For my mom, I've been looking on pinterest for ideas.  There are a lot of scarf tutorials from t-shirts that I may try my hand at that.  I've also thought of putting together something with pictures of her and my dad.

    6.  What do you plan to get your MIL/FIL for Christmas? For MIL, I think I'm going to make the scrabble coasters on Pinterest and maybe something the kids will make for her.  She likes antiquish things used in unique ways.  For FIL, something from the kids and maybe a Bears shirt.
