What are you buying for Christmas?

I know we did this a few weeks ago but just curious if anyone else has new ideas etc.  What are you getting for your kids for Christmas?

 I ordered a very hungry caterpillar backpack for Mara this morning (yay for sales and free shipping PBK) and I am putting Eric Carle books in it and I don't know what else.

Peyton is getting an iPod Shuffle

Berkeley might get the docking station (they share a room) otherwise I am at a loss for this girl

Jude is getting some clothes (yes, I get babies presents) 

Warning No formatter is installed for the format bbhtml

Re: What are you buying for Christmas?

  • I think I'm set on gifts for the kids (and almost done).  B is getting a Little Tikes Get out and Grill set.  K is getting a bike.  They will both get clothes and some little toys that I already bought. 
  • I shop for my niece's like they are my own, so here's what I have so far:

     

    PBK Backpacks (Pink Daisy and Chocolate Butterfly) filled with:

    Roxy Quicksilver sun dresses for next summer that I found on clearance at Nordstrom Rack in PHX, 7 bucks, holla!

    Tiny Toms shoes (Purple Sparkes and Pink Sparkles)

    Hair bows

    Baby Alive Dolls

     

  • For the older kids, clothes and books.  Plus the kids are at a point for their room to be redecorated so we will probably get a few things for their room.  They are getting harder to buy for since they are getting older and it seems like all they want are electronics.

    For Saw, a few toys, pjs and clothes.  Not much though.

  • Huh?  That's what December is for.  Thanks for the ideas though!

  • I am building older DS a Lego table, and the little guy a train table, out of various shelving/storage units from IKEA. Those will be the "big" presents from Santa.

    They always get new jammies on Christmas Eve. My older son wants a robe (wtf, son, are you 86?!) :) Otherwise, books, probably a board game, I have been considering Twister. 

     

  • I haven't really thought about it yet, but Alissa will probably get some DS games, Barbies, clothes. Maybe some kiddie makeup and nail polish. She's hard to buy for.
