Just Can't Wait?

Is there a gift this year that you are counting down the days to see the face of the person when they open it? I know I can't wait for my hubby to get the quilt I made him, and all the scrapbooks I made everybody else. It's my favorite part of Christmas!

I got my kids Nintendo DS's from my friend/employer for free....I wanted to buy them and could not afford them, I asked my friend if I could buy her kids old ones (they got new DSi's because they are a little on the spoiled side, lol), and her and her kids refused to let me pay anything for them.  Her kids got to do a good deed and my kids will actually get a really good gift that they both really wanted this year.  I cannot wait to see my kids faces when they get what they want.

Nothing really this year. No one asked for anything special

Nothing in particular...  I really can't wait to see my daughter's reaction since this is her first Christmas.  She'll be a week shy of one on Christmas so I know she won't understand the Santa stuff or anything, but I can't wait to see her with her presents and I know she's going to LOVE all that wrapping paper!

Yes there are 1 for each of my kids.  My 10 yr old it will be this doll stroller & swing/highchair set ( it was only $25 ) that is the only thing she was asking Santa fore  LOL, my 7 yr old it will be in Nintendo DS ( I could not have got it with out family donations & a store that sells refurbished ones ), my 4 year old it is the leapfrog tag ( great deal I had a $10 off coupon ) and my 20 month old it is the Elmo live encore ( again could not have go it without help with family donations )

I hope to get each of my kids an Mp3 player and I can't wait to see their faces if I can get them each one.  I have 4 kids so I don't know if we will be able to swing it.

Omg yes! My dad got my son a train table.. it should be arriving this Wednesday. I can't wait to get it in the mail! Then put it together and see his face Christmas morning when it's under the tree!

He's also got a lego zoo set that he picked out at the LEGO store in october.. can't wait for him to see that :)


I also can't wait for my hubby to see his gift.. I've had to do some sneaking and plotting in order to make it a secret.. but with a little help from "santa" my husband will have a good christmas

Every year we get each of the kids little gifts and then one that they really want. We trade off years putting the big gift in the stocking or them opening it. I love it when they open all their presents but the look on their face when they get the one thing they really wanted is priceless!
