I have a few things put away for Christmas! Mainly that I was able to grab at a killer discount, ha. I'm so cheap 
It's all stuff for my 4 year old so far, except the first gift which will be for both of them! (They'll be almost 2, and 4).
I need to start looking for my younger daughter. Lol.

I'm in the middle of getting a custom made busy book by a local mom for DD's birthday/Christmas...
We usually aren't big on gifts, but the other day SIL threw out the idea of having the kids do a sleep-over so they can wake up and do presents together so now I'm like d'oh!

Just a play tent I got for a major discount at Target. Think it will be her gift from santa and we'll have it set up when she comes out to the living room.
Her birthday is two weeks before Christmas - really need to figure out gifts soon!

I got her a play mixer and a Paw patrol dvd. All I need now are her stocking stuffers and to get her Santa gift.

@avivoca: ooh the Melissa and Doug one? Olivia got it for her birthday and the girls are obsessed!

@sorrycharlie: No, I got the Hape one on amazon. I am thinking about getting them the Hape refrigerator to go with the kitchen as their Santa present.

We got this dollhouse this week. I also have Beauty and the Beast blue-ray saved. Then an Elsa and Anna plush doll put aside.

Not yet. I'm going to a kids sale in a few weeks and I might look for something there. We don't usually do big presents for the kids yet because they are too little to understand.

So far I bought LO an activity cube and a personalized book (HB toy guide suggestion!).
That may be it for Christmas gifts. We have been thinking about a Grimms stacking tower and Radio flyer, but may hold off until his Spring first birthday.

A dollhouse. I'm not planning to get her too much more. Maybe some books and one other small thing. I'm going to get her some blind bags for her stocking and I honestly think she'll be most excited about those!

My 4 year olds have been sorted for a few months - just need to get a few stocking stuffers. Bought one for my 14 month old so far so need to think what else I can get her.

We have an ikea train set and a travel art set put away. Her birthday is today so I just gave her a whole bunch of gifts but we had too many so those were the ones we decided to keep for later.

@Mrs. Lemon-Lime: LOVE those books! It is my go-to gift for new babies.
DS' birthday is in September, so our list is basically whatever he didn't get then. This year, it is a dollhouse/barn, and maybe a ukulele.
We just ordered Legacyboxes for our parents this morning. https://legacybox.com/ (50% off today, but also 70% off via Groupon)

@lawbee11: I need to try the blind bags for LO. Cause that would be a good stocking stuffer.

Also none. But I did pin a few things I saw for my mom! My dad is the hard one for me to shop for....

I have one gift that DD1 picked out for DD2 and "bought" with her allowance- it's a little pair of pink slippers so they can match. Sooooo cute! I need to start thinking about it though- DD2 is due Nov 1st and I'm sure I will be crazy busy through the holidays so I better hop to planning.

We just bought her this off a BST group for cheap. I also have an Elena dress set aside for her for Christmas.
@Smurfette: who is that house by?
pomelo / 5084 posts
Dang you all are organized!!! All we have planned for DS so far is a PBK table and chairs set for his room ... he will be 13 months this Christmas.
coconut / 8854 posts
None! Although since she's only 16 months, I think we are only getting her the PBK Anywhere chair, and I'm waiting for a sale!!

We're getting her a Melissa and Doug kitchen. I need to buy it this month because the local toy store has all Melissa and Doug items 20% off. We're also getting we the illustrated version of HP and the Chamber of Secrets. She got the first one last year. We'll put it away until she's older. I need to figure out some stocking stuffers.

I have a big list but haven't yet bought anything. But @Mrs. Lemon-Lime, that book is going to be my first purchase, so wonderful! I just need to decide whether to get one for each kid or just B and wait until W is bigger, and if I get 2 do I get different ones or both the same?

@snowjewelz: ooooh cool! I always wanted a busy book for them, never got one.

@mediagirl: My little girl has this same one and plays with it daily! It was a pain to put together. Great find since you got it already assembled!

Brain quest cards I literally just grabbed this afternoon, and some movies coming from the Disney Movie Club

We have a few things saved already. This will be her favorite, the doll activity set.

@erinbaderin: I am obsessed with these books. The books are totally custom, so W and B would have completely different ones! Well, it is the same story, so the start/end are the same, but they would meet different creatures in the middle. If you go to the website, you can preview the entire book, so you can see what I'm talking about.
And while we're discussing the awesomeness of Lost My Name...., I feel silly asking, but I'm one referral away from a free alphabet book...if you decide to get it, would you mind using this link? https://www.lostmy.name/friends/lauren-blitzer-14

All of them. One big gift to share and 4 small gifts each. Well, I still need to get some stocking stuffers.
wonderful pea / 17279 posts
@MrsLonghorn: your friends must love you! I would totally tear up at such a thoughtful gift!
grapefruit / 4997 posts
@MrsLonghorn: I'll be glad to use your referral link! I need to get 2 books, do I use the same link?

A Bruder fire truck for my son.. It was on sale at amazon... I took the bait..

Towels for my mom and a disney princess puzzles for the almost 4 year old.
We are planning on following the want, need, wear, read plan for both kids this year.

@erinbaderin: 
gift twinning! Your LOs are going to love the book!
pomelo / 5573 posts
@MrsLonghorn: I saw this too late or I totally would have, but looks like @Kimberlybee is going to so yay for getting the alphabet book!
cantaloupe / 6017 posts
Just pajamas so far. But I've got my lists made for the kids so now I'm just watching for deals and deciding between a few things

@Kimberlybee: you are SO awesome - thank you! I think you can use the same link for both.
