For our families - we made a Snapfish family album for the first time, I received it today, and am absolutely thrilled with it!

For DH - I found a video game he was talking about a year or so ago, and couldn't track down.

For DD (4 years) - Her main gift is a bike, but I think she'll be most excited about the fact that it has a big basket with flowers on the front, and pink glittery handle bar tassels.

For DD (1 year) - I've been wanting to get the kids a big tin spinning top since DD1 was tiny, but hadn't been able to find one in stores - I ended up finding one on line.

Not all the 'big' gift, but the ones I think will be loved original.gif

Pillow Pets.

DS1 is arguably too old for it but the three of them are getting them and I can't wait to see them asleep in bed with them on xmas night.

DD is obsessed with dinosaurs and palaeontology at the moment and I found a 'fossil' at the museum shop recently that has paleontology tools to help you 'dig' it out and discover it. She is going to go bonkers when she unwraps it!

What fresh hell is this?
For DD, the little purple bag for her toy cat - I didn't think I'd be able to find a bag so exactly what she wanted.

For the ILs, the calendar of DD - they will love it.

For mum, the Swarovski crystal necklace - I think she will adore it!

I'm excited to see DF's face when he see's the canvas print of him and DD I got made. He has NO idea that I bought it, and it looks absolutely amazing.

I'm looking forward to DD not caring at all about her presents, but being more interested in the shiny sparkly wrapping paper, that I chose because I knew she'd like it. Tounge1.gif

My war paint is Sharpie ink
For DD - I found the Princess Celestia, the one and only thing she wanted and it's one without the stupid voice chip saying inane things! And it was the last one available too. Merry Christmas to everyone.

I was actually most excited about giving my EB Secret Santa. blush.gif

Have yet to buy most other gifts, although I have a lot for DD's already.

I've got a couple actually.

Can't wait to see what my nephew thinks of his personalised back-pack we bought him.

I also can't wait to see my parents faces when they open their gift - I slurged on them this year & bought them a digital camera, given they don't have one, it's going to be great.
