Have you started?  Are you done?

What is PN getting this year?  Siblings?

Who else do you buy for?

I am pretty much done with the kids.  I need to buy some movies and little odds and ends for their stockings, but all of the main gifts have been purchased.  I may get them each a board game still...

Jensine has asked for a puppet theater and puppets, so that's her main gift.  She also wants some Strawberry Shortcake stuff.  Kendall is all about Barbie this year, so she's getting a dollhouse for her Barbies, as well as a Princess castle (her other love).  Evan is really into GI Joe, so he's getting tons of that stuff. 

We still buy for everyone in our families - 5 siblings, 3 sibling spouses, 1 nephew, MIL & FIL, my parents, Jamie's grandparents.  And then we are buying for our friends' kids, but decided to pass on gifts for the adults this year, which is good.  I will buy for the kids' school teachers and gymnastics coaches, our babysitter, and a few people at our church who always get us a little something.  I still have to do most of that shopping...

We havent started shopping yet. I love to go shopping the day after Thanskgiving so I am hoping to find some deals. We do know that we are getting Brayden a leapster though, so I am hoping that will be on sale that day, or at least the games for it.

I've been squirreling things away all year but I'm no where close to being done. I feel like shopping for Annie and Molly is easiest, and everyone else is tricky. Ted and I are on a tight holiday budget this year so I've gotta think of something cool for my folks, his folks, brothers, sisters, etc. that's not too expensive. *sigh*
