I was just telling DH this morning how excited I was for Xmas! It's not like she'll have any idea what's going on, but *I* will!! Yay for a jumperoo!! I really want to get LO one but I'm not sure if it's in the budget this year! We'll see!</p> <p>@Foodnerd81: Haha you aren't bad parents. We just bought her clothes that we would have anyways! I'll probably add a book or two, but like you said, she's going to get SO spoiled by everyone else! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-get-really-excited-about-giving-your-los-their-christmasbirthday-gifts#post-1204196 Fri, 08 Nov 2013 10:17:11 +0000 Foodnerd81 1204196@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Oh god, we must be bad parents. DH and I were talking the other day and wondering if we need to get her gifts. We just know so many family members are going to ask what she wants and spoil her, and of course, we buy her everything she needs anyway, so we were thinking maybe we wouldn't buy her anything big and just request it from the grandparents. AND even worse, when asked about what she wants, I was thinking about asking for solids stuff-- who wants to give, or receive, bowls for Christmas for a baby!?</p> <p>That said, I should start researching what jumparoo and high chair I want, since people are starting to ask! </p> <p>@sorrycharlie: That is too cute! I'm excited for when she really gets excited for her toys! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-get-really-excited-about-giving-your-los-their-christmasbirthday-gifts#post-1204165 Fri, 08 Nov 2013 10:07:40 +0000 mrsjyw 1204165@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>totally! :) it's our first year buying bday/christmas gifts and we're both geeked :P </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-get-really-excited-about-giving-your-los-their-christmasbirthday-gifts#post-1204163 Fri, 08 Nov 2013 10:07:00 +0000 pinkcupcake 1204163@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yes, totally! :) Last year she was only 10 months old for Christmas but I still hid all the toys I bought her. Like she would've known ;) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-get-really-excited-about-giving-your-los-their-christmasbirthday-gifts#post-1204157 Fri, 08 Nov 2013 10:05:05 +0000 LuLu Mom 1204157@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Cherrybee: I figured it can't be any more annoying than the singing stuff she already has ;) And we did buy it for a family friend too...they can hate us! haha </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-get-really-excited-about-giving-your-los-their-christmasbirthday-gifts#post-1204105 Fri, 08 Nov 2013 09:42:52 +0000 Cherrybee 1204105@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@sorrycharlie: Aaaaaaw!!!! That's so adorable! :happy: </p> <p>My girl is going to be so spoiled - in a good way, of course! I just want to give her the moon. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-get-really-excited-about-giving-your-los-their-christmasbirthday-gifts#post-1204094 Fri, 08 Nov 2013 09:38:58 +0000 sorrycharlie 1204094@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>umm yup. last year she was just under 3 months, so I actually used some of her gifts with her and then still "opened" them on christmas morning. she had no clue, obviously.</p> <p>this year, I already gave her the Little People Farm. HAHA. She was literally vibrating with excitement, rubbing the box and dancing in Target, so how the heck could I say no? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-get-really-excited-about-giving-your-los-their-christmasbirthday-gifts#post-1204093 Fri, 08 Nov 2013 09:38:40 +0000 Cherrybee 1204093@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@LuLu Mom: That looks amazing! She's going to love it! That's the kid of gift you expect friends and family to buy for your LO to really annoy you, not the kind of gift you buy for your own kids!! You're the best mum ever! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-get-really-excited-about-giving-your-los-their-christmasbirthday-gifts#post-1204092 Fri, 08 Nov 2013 09:38:33 +0000 Dandelion 1204092@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Oh yes! It gets even better when they get older! It's so exciting to do Christmas morning with DS! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-get-really-excited-about-giving-your-los-their-christmasbirthday-gifts#post-1204090 Fri, 08 Nov 2013 09:38:03 +0000 teamjse 1204090@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yes I already have a closet with things I am hoarding for Xmas. I can't wait. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-get-really-excited-about-giving-your-los-their-christmasbirthday-gifts#post-1204088 Fri, 08 Nov 2013 09:37:42 +0000 Smurfette 1204088@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yes! I can't wait to give her the big gift. It is in the basement already! I bought her a music table and I already caved and gave it to her!! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-get-really-excited-about-giving-your-los-their-christmasbirthday-gifts#post-1204082 Fri, 08 Nov 2013 09:36:12 +0000 LuLu Mom 1204082@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Cherrybee: Yes! I bought it for her last week because it was on sale: </p> <p><a href="http://www.target.com/p/b-parum-pum-pum-drum-lime/-/A-12026425#prodSlot=medium_1_1&#038;term=b.+toys" rel="nofollow">http://www.target.com/p/b-parum-pum-pum-drum-lime/-/A-12026425#prodSlot=medium_1_1&#038;term=b.+toys</a> </p> <p>She played with it in the store once and just loved it! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-get-really-excited-about-giving-your-los-their-christmasbirthday-gifts#post-1204080 Fri, 08 Nov 2013 09:36:02 +0000 Grace 1204080@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Haha! I think when she's older, I will, but right now, she hasn't shown mega-excitment over any toys. Her favourite thing is still having us make goofy noises. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-get-really-excited-about-giving-your-los-their-christmasbirthday-gifts#post-1204078 Fri, 08 Nov 2013 09:36:00 +0000 autumnlove 1204078@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yes! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-get-really-excited-about-giving-your-los-their-christmasbirthday-gifts#post-1204040 Fri, 08 Nov 2013 09:23:52 +0000 swurlygurl 1204040@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yes!! I already got some toys for her, and since I was being slow in putting them away she kind of played with them for two days and she LOVED them. I felt horrible putting them up, but if I didn't I would have had to buy more... haha. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-get-really-excited-about-giving-your-los-their-christmasbirthday-gifts#post-1204038 Fri, 08 Nov 2013 09:23:20 +0000 Cherrybee 1204038@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@LuLu Mom: Drumset?!! AWESOME! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-get-really-excited-about-giving-your-los-their-christmasbirthday-gifts#post-1203996 Fri, 08 Nov 2013 09:12:02 +0000 LuLu Mom 1203996@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yes! I have to hide the gifts in the basement closet so I don't see them and cave. I know she will love her drumset and everything else. Hiding is key for me! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-get-really-excited-about-giving-your-los-their-christmasbirthday-gifts#post-1203956 Fri, 08 Nov 2013 09:00:16 +0000 photojane 1203956@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>YES! The holiday season is infinitely more exciting now that I have a kid. I have always been crazy about Christmas, but this is the most excited I've ever been! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-get-really-excited-about-giving-your-los-their-christmasbirthday-gifts#post-1203953 Fri, 08 Nov 2013 08:57:50 +0000 Cherrybee 1203953@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I have just bought DD a jumperoo for Christmas! I'm SO excited to give it to her!! I'm not sure how I'm going to get through the next seven weeks without caving and getting it out!! It's not like she knows what Christmas is, yet! BUT then I will feel the need to buy her another big gift to replace it!!! </p> <p>Ack, I love buying things for my baby! We are going to stuff her stocking with solids related paraphernalia and some fun little toys! I can't wait to buy them!! </p> <p>Agh, I'm just soooooo excited!!! </p>
