So What Is On YOUR Holiday Gift List?

[Anonymous]

A monthly housekeeper and a new phone. Nothing fancy. Just one that doesn't crap out three times a day.

However, I'm really trying to come up with a realistic gift list and I could use some realistic ideas! So far, my list includes: Marc Jacobs nylon tote I've had my eye on to use as purse/baby bag; set of new dish towels from Sur La Table. That's it. I need some more ideas or else my family will be left to their own devices again (last year's gift from my bro and sister in law: used book biography of a random black panther. um, what?). I'm expecting DD#2 at Thanksgiving, so I'm trying to come up with ideas for things that I may like once I'm dealing with a toddler and a newborn, but I'm drawing a blank. I think I have selective amnesia from that time period after DD#1's birth.

How about a double stroller? iPad for you and the toddler. Gift certificate for kid/ family portraits.

No hospitalizions or surgeries for DS in 2013.

Give up all of my gifts so you get this. Oh, and hugs to you.

(Guy) I could really use a new electric shaver, socks, underwear and white t-shirts to wear under my dress shirts.

black boots
nice hand cream
nice eyeshadow
perfume

I will be getting these for myself but probably not all.

Realistically, it's a no gift year. We just moved into a new house and spent a ton of money on the move, so things are tight right now. I just got the lecture last night about how we have to sock about $17K before next June to pay DS's private school tuition.

Fantasy gift? I'd like my husband to pay a plumber to fix our second shower so that we don't have to fight over the shower every day.
