S/O Stocking stuffers
I'm always up for new ideas for stocking stuffers, especially for DH. On my lists this year:
DD: pencils, candy; toothbrush; fun socks; hair ponies; barbie dresses
DS: new sippy cups; toothbrush; socks; toddler snacks
DH: Candy; razors; toothbrush; work gloves; McD's gift cards
What about you guys?
ETA: also gak or floam for DD it's one thing she's been consistently asking for.

Re: S/O Stocking stuffers
Kids: toothbrush & toothpaste (so exciting, right?), stickers, coloring book, new crayons. I also got Jake some type of light saber thing filled with M&Ms. Liam will get some animal crackers or something.
Brian: I always do some toiletries (toothbruste, paste, razors, etc....), he needs new socks, so I'll throw some of those in, a Starbucks gift card. I usually do some of his favorite candy (like chocolate covered pretzels), and maybe small samples of "fancy" coffee or hot chocolate.
Jake - 1.15.08
Liam - 5.17.11
so far, EJs stocking will have a hello kitty ring pop, some little stampers, a small lego set and some gummy lifesavers (one of those books)
I don't really put effort into filling K's stocking. Cause he doesnt do mine. Usually what happens is I think of something to put in there, and warn him so mine isn't empty. hahahaha.
the dogs already has 2 toys in it, because I was at the pet store last weekend.
i got some toys at kmart for$1 that will probably go in my son's stocking- like that sticky octopus that climbs down the wall- remember that from when we were kids? and sticky hands remember those? and magnetic alphabet letters...wonder if those will scratch our stainless steel refrig though...
will probably buy DH some pgh popcorn company popcorn for his stocking and maybe some other candy....
Ugh that Gak commerical is the worst!
I'm not doing stockings for the kids. Instead I'm using the usual stocking stuffer things for their advent calendar. That way they're not eating candy first thing in the morning every day, and they can actually play with and appreciate the little things. I got them new playdough, stamp pads, some kind of Melissa and Doug stamp markers, generic floam, those sponge growers, new hair for Lanna's Pony Royale, some Littlest Pet Shop pets, some wooden toys to paint, some books... I think that's most of it! None of it fits in the advent calendar, but I'm just going to stick it on the table in front of the calendar and use the doors to track the days, not house the toys. I was driving myself nuts trying to find stuff that was small enough, and now that there's two of them forget it!
Our stainless fridge won't hold magnets.
hehe, same with our dogs' stockings!
i normally get mike stuff like: sbux and iTunes gift cards, a xmas pair of boxers, kcup samples, pack of marlboros, a DVD, scratch offs, etc.
our first year of marriage he put a flashlight in my stocking..... now he does a little better
