What gifts did you wish for as a kid and received?

I remember begging for a certain baby doll when I was around 7 and I got it! I still have it and my LO's have it now. When I was 8 I wanted an American Girl doll, Santa didn't bring it but my grandma got it for me, I was over the moon! I still have her as well. Those are the two gifts I really remember wanting for Christmas.

DH was just telling me that his parents rarely got him what he asked for, and instead got what they wanted. I felt so bad! Nothing like having that Santa magic feeling on Christmas morning. The gifts were affordable too.

Was there a gift you wanted that you never got?
