    Question What are your kids asking for for the holidays?

    My girls want clothes and cd's. They're in that "teen" mode now. What are your kids asking for? Any "hot" toys you're killing yourself to get?

    My kids aren't real needy. Ds wants games for the Game Boy Advance he won selling Cub Scout Popcorn. I'm going to make him a certificate good for 2 games and attach it to the accessory pack I got him. He can pick them out himself that way, I always get the wrong one. He also asked for a black fleece vest.

    Dd is only 11 months old on Christmas, she has no idea!

    Honestly, all they really want is to not have my BIL show up again this year. Sad isn't it.

    We are going to take them snowboarding since they all like that and I have found some cool computer stuff for the oldest and some great hunting and camping stuff for the twins. Everyone should be a happy! Now I just need ot figure out what to get for the biggest kid (hubby!).

    Honestly, they haven't asked for anything.......

    I'm sort of clueless as to what to even get them.....

    Probably DVDs for the older two & maybe a couple of toys each for the younger two.....

    I'm open for suggestions on what's hot this year!!

    DD still wants some toys, especially this Barbie that you get to pierce her ears. She's getting some cd's, a movie, some clothes and some craft items. Plus lots of little stuff (she collects erasers), lip glosses, etc.

    They have asked for PS2 games, DVD's and Music CD's. That is all that's on their list.

    OH, and Dakota wants a cute, little puppy. I think our Lab has grown from a being a cute, little puppy into a big, cute dog. I am not sure he will be getting the cute, little puppy because I don't want to clean up after it!

    dd is clueless and would probably like some "ponies" like My Little Ponies, and maybe a baby doll, but she hasn't asked for anything.
