Clicky Poll: Christmas

Re: Clicky Poll: Christmas
I've been making MY list... the things I want for MYSELF and even sent some links to DH.
But, I've made no lists for anyone else.
I've made lists, but not yet bought anything. Well, no... I've bought ONE thing.
Christmas is 10 weeks away, that makes me a lot panicky!
The only thing left to get for DD is the new trampoline which I can't order till DH will be home from work again and can go pick up. And then just for the parents - I plan on dragging DD out one day to do a photoshoot so we can create a calendar this year. That is pretty much the only thing they will let us give them.
DH & I are only doing stockings this year and so far I got him cologne and a cd. No clue what else to put in there. As for me, there is nothing I even want. Ok so MAYBE a nice pair of citrine earrings.

DH and I are pretty much done except for stocking stuffers. Christmas came early, we got an IPad and a trip to Florida! Family is also done.
I have my list made for DS and I plan on looking tonight to see if I can find any good deals.
I absolutely love the religious aspect of Christmas as well as all the celebrations with friends and family, but I dread the gift giving and receiving portion. I could completely do without that entire part of it (except for the kiddos).
I have bought a few things for DD here and there but haven't gotten her big present yet. DH and I don't give gifts, we do stocking stuffers now and then, but don't go all out.
I know it makes me sound so ungrateful, but I wish the Grandparents wouldn't buy our kids so much stuff, especially in the Santa years. It's so hard to come up with stuff for them to get plus gifts from Santa. It just turns into them getting way too much.

Ditto. I started an Amazon wishlist for him weeks ago, but like Suzi said, he is easy. It is everyone else I need to think of. And we have 4 birthdays in the family between October 9 and Thanksgiving. That can make it a little more tricky.
Dx: PCOS and short luteal phase
18 cycles (3 with our RE) - Metformin + Clomid + HCG booster did the trick!
BFP #1 6/22/09 EDD: 3/2/10 DS born: 3/8/10
TTC #2 since Dec 2011
BFP #2 7/8/12 EDD: 3/18/12 M/C @ 9w1d: 8/16/12
I'm very glad that we don't have a nestie who clicked "100%!"
I have a list on my phone for everyone that I need to buy for. We've purchased a few things, but I'm probably looking at less than 5%. Some people will be easy, but others are going to be tough! I also have things that I know will be on sale Black Friday and I'll buy them at that time.
I told DH this week that we have to sit down and talk about Christmas because I want to have all my Christmas shopping done before Thanksgiving. I really don't want to be 8/9 months pregnant Christmas shopping in the crowds in December!
Black Friday will be my last hoorah but I know that normally BF deals we go for are usually big gifts for ourselves (me and dh) so I feel I can complete the rest of my list prior to BF.
I've bought 2 things, one was a game for ds' leap pad that was on clearance at Target and the second thing was dh's Hallmark Star Trek ornament he has to have every year.
