Christmas Wish List 2008

So Christmas is fast approaching and I thought I would take a little time to share what the boys were getting and wishing for this holiday...maybe it will give you ideas for your kids as well.

M will be getting a Razor Scooter from his brothers, both were along to help pick it out **wink**wink** at least J picked it out. M will also be getting some more leap pad book sets since everyone seems to be clearancing them out for the new tag system...new system seems pretty cool, but we already have the leap pad original stuff. He is also getting a Star Wars color wonder book...those magical markers that only work on special paper...the only way to go with these boys and markers. I also believe he is getting Lego Indiana Jones for the WII from Gma K and Gpa T. I think I have a good start but don't have THEE gift of the year for him yet...he has of course circled and has made a list of what he wants in some of the ads. However, we are at the point were we are very picky about what comes into the house due to space limitations, having a new baby in the house that will be trying to eat things in a couple of months, and the big move to the new house.

J seems to get shorted due to the fact he plays with everything that M has and with his bday so close. I think that Gma K and Gpa T are sending a 3 wheel scooter and the Color Wonder Magic Light Brush from Crayola...he LOVES his crafts. I have picked up the Wall-E game for the VSmile and considering getting the Backyardagains one as well. I did pick up a Hot Wheels WII game since he loves being a big boy and playing the WII and also plays a lot with his little cars. I suggested a ceiling solar system for him to my sister...the boys already have glowing stars and a moon that will glow with different waxing and waning stages and they seem to enjoy those at night. Again nothing really big is coming to mind to be the gift of the year...

As far as the new little man...well he won't know any better at this point...I did pick up a new baby cell phone and play keys for the babe...so the boys will have something to say they got their little bro. I see diapers and formula under the tree for the newbie.

And for the adults of the household...J got a new video camera a couple of months ago and has been playing with it ever since...it is way better then the one we got 6 years ago and I can actually watch the footage...I get motion sickness from the old one. He is also looking at putting money towards a new laptop he can take on deployments...which benefits me since he won't be taking my precious computer. As for me...a vacuum.....but not any old vacuum...the Animal Dyson DC17 . With moving in a couple of months we are going to need a better vacuum, the house we are being moved to has carpet everywhere and with as much traffic as we have with boys and 2 dogs we need it. Not very romantic, but something I am excited about.
