My oldest will get a Nintendo Wii system with a game.
My middle son wants a I-Pod and a movie.
My little one..not sure what he wants yet.
My brother will get some movies and Cd's...a portable cd player.

What about yours?

My kids are all grown so I get them the easy gift for me and most wanted gift for them--cash and gift cards

So far I have a few books set back and a Bitty Baby outfit. I'm watching the sales!

Myy DDs are getting digital cameras and they both asked for a Vera Bradley purse...not frugal I know, but I don't splurge on them often.

I can relate to that one too...my oldest sons B'day is Dec 29th and my middle childs B'day is Jan 3rd.. thats why if a family member asks me what I want for xmas I say gift cards so I can buy for my boys B'days... works for me..

My boys are done. Thomas the Tank and Power Ranger stuff for the younger one, Bionicles stuff for the older one. They are each getting a DVD. One will get Cars and one will get the second Pirates of the Carribbean.
My oldest daughter wants a Green Day book (biography), Green Day messenger bag, the new Little Mermaid DVD, and a band calendar.
Don't know about my youngest daughter, we just did her birthday stuff last week. I know she will get some movie DVD. And I'm sure there will probably be some video game she wants

If it were up to me, I'd spend about $100 on each: some toys or CD's; maybe a special purse; new pj's; a sterling silver piece of jewelry; a nice journal; art supplies.

But Christmas gifts are important to DH ... and he's a last-minute gift giver. I'll have to see what he suggests.

DD wants anything Polly Pocket, Barbie, and My Little Pony! Going to do some ebay shopping soon!

**petite four** · 10-29-2006, 12:58 PM

truthfully if something does not come up we are going to be blessed to have food and warmth.

Right now I'm planning on getting all three boys a scooter. My hubby wants to get the oldest a guitar (I don't think he's serious enought about it to spend that much money). I'll probably get each one a gameboy or pc game. That's all I have planned so far.

My son is grown and married. When DH and I were visiting them (my son & DIL) last month they kept talking about wanting to get a bonsai tree, so I think that's what I'm getting them. I also bought them a really cute "Our 1st Christmas together" ornament. My stepdaughter is 16 and all she is interested in is clothes & boys. She says she wants a gift certificate to the mall...lol (figures). So she'll probably be getting that.
