What did you end up buying your LO for Christmas? A few Thomas the Train and Friends engines, a train rug that has tracks on it, a Pillow Pet, and a baby doll.
How about your DH/SO? This year I didn't pay a cent  Using my Swagbucks Amazon gift cards, I got him a Blu Ray of "Across the Universe" and the newest Alton Brown cookbook. Usually we do a lot more but funds are very low this year.

What did you end up buying your LO for Christmas? He got some playdoh, megablocks, an easel, a drum and some other toys that are slipping my mind.
How about your DH/SO? We jointly bought each other a new 46 inch LED TV

What did you end up buying your LO for Christmas? This year we went way over board for Oliver's gifts. He got two dyson play vacuums. One in pink (which is what he asked Santa for) and another in yellow. I wanted to get him both and Jett loves to vacuum too so when he is here he can play with one. I got him a green toy firetruck and green toy boat for the bath tub. He got a book, 2 puzzles, markers, 2 cd's, a,b,c flash cards, blocks, a glockenspiel, Goodnight Moon game, chocolate, crayons, and a craft sticker book. I also got him a quilt, sham, and sheet set from PBK. We are getting him a full size bed in Jan. and redoing his bedroom. I think that is everything.
How about your DH/SO? I got him seasons 7 thru 11 of Married with Children to complete the whole series. It's his all time favorite show and what he asked for. I also got him a pair of shoes and a clock tower for his Christmas village.

Matthew: he's geting quite a bit since it was all Goodwill/consignment...Little People airplane, car ball pit (the only thing I got new), some books, a car ramp, a see n say, wooden puzzles, Mr. Potato Head, a little wooden train. Then he is getting some cool stuff from relatives that I know about: a big dump truck, a little basketball goal, a t ball set, megabloks and my SIL said his Christmas/belated bday gift is going to be a Cozy Coupe!!! Major score!
For Dh: He is hard to buy for. I got him several nice shirts for work since he never wants to shop for himself. We also bought a new camera that was $500 so that is kind of our Christmas gift to each other.

Wow I went way over board compared to you all
He's getting a tv story book reader (it connects to the tv) with 3 books with it, some cars, all new clothes in sizes 6 and 7slims (i think there's about 8 prs of jeans several shirts, etc....) 5prs of undies, house shoes, 4prs jammies, 12 or 13 books and book sets that have 4-10books in them, theodore and eleanor beanies, 6pk sponge bob golf balls, a grade 1 work book, cars, trucks, some trains, some WWE figures, WWE money in the bag ring, some melissa and doug paint your own ceramics, hotwheels playsets, a tent, a sleeping bag, a bounce back racer, he has 5 or 6 gymboree outfits yet to wrap, coloring books, and little toys for his stockings (one for here one for Mamaw's) that have books, bouncy balls, marbles, candies, action figures, jumping beans, balloons, and knex mini sets, oh a set of lincoln logs, oh dear I can't remember anymore. I'm looking at the tree but I can't remember all he has under there! A little recliner is another one....um.....I'm forgetting stuff. I don't even want to think about what I spent! I spent $135 just on all the books at a Scholastic book fair. But he needed new toys since he's outgrown a lot of his, and he needed books since he's outgrown them, and $150 of it came from my mom as her gift to him too. Oh he got a couple DVD's too---cloudy with a chance of meatballs and something else. The Amazon order only costed me 1.67 since i used $30 of swagbuck GC's!
From his dad he is getting a junior set of golf clubs, playdoh, a hotwheels play set, a 5pk of cars and a game system you connect to the tv and play mini golf, baseball and something else. he spent a total of $120 on all that.
I spent $75 or so on Matt and got him a dice bag, 5 or 6 DVDs, the 1 season of lie to me, seasons 1 and 2 of supernatural and another season of another show but I forget what now. And i got him Yahtzee too so I can play hahahaha!
I'll post pics this weekend when he opens.

What did you end up buying your LO for Christmas?
Curtis - Mobigo, Toy Story 3 game for it, a fireman back pack play set, underwear
Dustin - Twilight Turtle, a pull along Sevi toy dog, a melissa and doug truck with cars plus two sound puzzles by melissa and doug as well (I really love their toys!), toddler bed
AJ - sleep sounds giraffe, a day pack of flip diapers, a teething toy,
And stocking stuffers (hand made finger puppets, chalk board with chalk, candys, 1 weeble wobble toy each, ummm I'm sure I've forgetting something!)
Their might be more but that's what I can think of. We went small but I'm so excited about what we got. I know the boys will be so happy with everything
How about your DH/SO? I got him some action figures for World of Warcraft. He has a section of the living room for his computer set up and for his birthday (Nov 25) we got him shelves and a Starcraft poster. He already has one World of Warcraft action figure but wanted more. So I got him Thrall and the boys got him to little guys who's names slip my mind... haha
