Re: What is your child (or furbaby) getting for Christmas/ Hanukkah?

  • We got them some Christmas toys, but we caved and already gave them to the boys so they're getting nothing. Oops. Actually, my mom might get all the dogs something. And we got a variety of doggie clothing for our dogs, my sister's dog and my parents' dog including reindeer hats, elf hats, argyle sweaters, Santa suits and christmas pajamas with trap door butts. But these are not things they'll enjoy and they're just for our amusement so I don't consider them presents. :)
  • We normally get Penny a new toy, but just recently we discovered how she goes nuts chasing one of DH's old belts. So that belt is "officially" her new toy for Christmas lol. Does that make us cheap? :) My BIL might get her something, so she won't be too neglected. 
  • Wyatt and the dogs get presents from mommy and daddy and santa.

    The dogs are getting new rawhide bones, tennis balls and some other treat.

    Wyatt is getting the fisher price laugh and learn learning workbench from santa and Kelly and I got him a book, sophie the giraffe and a bunch of little things for his stocking.  We didn't get him that much for Christmas since he really has no clue what is going on and the grandparents/other family members sent a bazillion gifts to him.

  • We bought my mom's dog one of those ropes that has a tennis ball attached and Amsterdam went crazy over it so he'll be getting one of those. MJ & Aerith will get some new soft balls or special treats.

  • My mom has requested that we go to a pet store so she can get something for Clancy, so I will pick up something for him then.

  • We got e a lion that you hook your ipod up to and it dances and an outfit. like kristin, we didnt get too much because he doesnt know whats going on and his grandparents will buy him way more than he needs.

  • Braden's big gift is a LeapPad.  He also got some trains, monster trucks, a fire truck, games for the LeapPad, play food and pots/pans for his kitchen, a sleeping bag, umbrella, a few board games and movies, a smart cycle.. I can't remember what all we ended up getting him, between us and other family, the kid is spoiled.

    Mackenzie is getting an Anywhere Chair from Pottery Barn Kids, a doll and stroller (for when she's bigger), a few of the little fisher price toys, a wooden activity block thing, an angel dear lovey, Sophie the Giraffe, a soft baby doll that B picked out for her, some teething toys/rattles.

    The boys are getting rawhides and maybe a new bed.

  • I am a bad mom. I have not bought O or the dogs anything.

    We adopted some foster kids for Christmas and decided that is where O's Christmas money would go. She won't know the difference and between family and friends she will not go without.

    DH & I aren't doing gifts this year either.

    FTR, I don't think that makes you a bad mom at all! 

  • I'm going to get the dogs a new Wubba Kong and a rope. Probably also some treat-bones since they just got a new set of nylabones. 

    I got vdub a couple new onesies and we will get her an exersaucer with the money her greatgrandma sent. I'm sure her grandparents, aunts and uncles will get her a ton and the kid already has so much. Our house is where cheap, bright plastic goes to die.

  • No presents from Santa, just us :) DD is getting stickers, Yo Gabba Gabba Colorforms and nightgown, Elmo pjs and Elmo Potty Time DVD, books.  We also have a play kitchen from her birthday that we never put together because we don't have any room so we might give that to her along with some play food.

    I just read this as choloform and like "WTF Jen? Didn't you watch the news this summer? Of course it still exists and Casey Anthony made it!"

  • We just do stockings for the furbabies. I got some catnip mice and other toys for the cats along with a laser pointer.

    For the foster pup I grabbed a squeaky soft toy and some balls. According to the woman who runs the rescue, he's not much for toys but I figured I'd give a few a try.

  • My mom bought Bowzer some stuff... but we didn't.  I'm a bad pet mommy.
  • Toby will get a new bone and some treats.

    DS will get some misc toys, pajamas and a stocking full of stuff. His birthday was less than a month ago and I put half of those toys in the top of his closet Indifferent His grandparents/aunts/uncles will buy him more than he needs. His favorite toys right  now are a bowl, pitcher and a wooden spoon, mom of the year over here.
