So what items are you looking at getting your LO's for Christmas? I thought we could maybe keep our eye out for good deals for each other!
i'm looking for a white, red-head, waldorf boy doll and toddler rolling backpack with NO cartoons on it...animals/shapes/etc but nothing commercialized on it..and boyish 
How about you guys?

Well for the bigger kids, I would love to get them imaginary play stuff. I will be getting them some play silks, dress up stuff, capes, fairy wings, you name it.
Bella I think I want to go the more waldorf route with toys. natural, bright colors (crocheted/knitted/cloth/wooden) Im just so tired of cheap baby/toddler toys that break sooo easily! Not a lot of sounds

I"m not sure yet cause I'm not sure if we will have much money to buy anything thanks to the law suit. I'm trying to find some kind of job, if its in the day time it has to be more then $11 so its enough to pay daycare and bring more then $200 home a month, or in the evening it has to be after 3:30 so its tough right now.
But what I'm looking at is
For Kieran:
Circo 14" TWINS GIRL BABIES : Target
or
Circo 14 INCH BABY DOLL GIFT SET (AA) : Target
Melissa & Doug Sound Puzzle - Farm Animals : Target
Little Tikes Princess Cozy Coupe : Target
For Seamus:
We are hoping to get him an older computer so we can get him some learning games, and he won't mess up our computers 
Tumble Tree Timbers 671-pc. Set : Target
Other then that I'm not sure
both:
Melissa & Doug Playtime Veggies : Target
And I think a new kitchen cause the one we got Seamus for his birthday was a piece of crap and broke right away ($50 down the drain  )

Just not sure! I'm thinking 1 big main gift and a bunch of cheapy fun things for each boy. We don't want to spend alot of money, would rather put it towards other things (debt, car payments etc etc).
Some ideas
Curtis - bike or an itouch (this would be a joint gift from us and grandparents... but we aren't sure yet. He LOVES playing on my iphone  ) as the main gift... some books, movie, or action figure, cars or something along those lines.
Dustin - oh gosh... that's tough! I need to think some more for him! Definately books! I need to work on our book collection
AJ - I'm thinking more practical stuff, like clothing, blankets, and/or cloth diapers and accessories.
Still have lots of thinking to do

We don't do the buying tons of things at Christmas plus things are way more expensive here than they would be in the US, Canada, UK.
We're thinking of getting Amara a Melissa & Doug Easel and my ILs seem to be thinking of a bicycle. I'm not sure what other gift her godparents and my side of the family are thinking of.
I do want to get her a cute jewelery stand but that's not really a gift.

Henry will be getting trains for Christmas. He's just gone head over heals for Thomas and Friends. So I think a few small die cast trains.
And a pillow pet! Just waiting to see if I can get cheaper than $20.

I can't find it online but I got Matthew a music set from Walmar that was $18. Drum, drumsticks, maracas, tambourine and a recorder. He really likes it.
I'm not sure yet what we'll do for Christmas. I was thinking maybe outdoor toys like a T-ball set and toddler basketball thing for our backyard.

I'd like to get the Monkey one. Do you have a true Pillow Pet? Because there are lots of knock offs and I'm not sure the real ones make a Tiger

I have no idea what to get J.J! He needs some more toddler toys.. i wanna get him a chalk board cause he loves drawing and some really large chalk so it wont break easily. Other than that.. I really have no idea!
DH and I are buying ourselves a new kitchen table for christmas lol.
As for my family and my nephew.. not a friggin clue. I don't wanna go too overboard for him with Christmas since his birthday is 3 weeks later.

I have NO idea  He's suddenly decided this week he doesn't like Thomas anymore. Dry erase markers and a big dry erase board. Maybe some workbooks? I really have no idea I was gonna get him a lego table but he didn't like it when I took him to play with one.

Angela, I think it's a great gift because it can last a long time and would be great to for when she starts school and I'm helping her.
