Call me old fashioned...

This year has been one of the best years of my life.  And in this Christmas season I've decided that I want to show my family and loved ones just how special they are to me.  I will admit, in previous years I wouldn't give much thought to a gift.  I'd simply would get a gift certificate for whomever I was thinking about.  However, this year, I want to make it a little more personal.

Although, I am having a real hard time thinking of presents for some people.  I don't associate with anyone who is "difficult" to shop for persey, but I'm still horrible at gift giving.  Everything I seem to think is a "good fit" is either too generic or somehow not right. 

Yes, I have tons of ideas...I'm just hoping that people would actually enjoy them this year.  This truly is the first year that I'm putting real thought into presents.  Everyone...not just Jaden and Greg.

Speaking of which...I cannot for the life of me figure out anything I want for Christmas.  Oh well, I guess Greg is on his own. :P

Christmas Shopping

I'm not going to lie, this is the first year in about, oh, 15 years that I've been excited for Christmas.  How can I not be?  It's Boo's first Christmas...and that's a big deal for me.  Yes, this year is more for Greg and I to celebrate...but it's still going to be a good year. 

Although I'm so excited for Christmas to come...I hate Christmas shopping.  And what exactly do you get a then 4 month old?  Yea...no clue.  We already got him a bumbo seat...which I'm sure he's going to love.  But other than that...what to get him?  Clothes?  Diapers?  

I'm clueless. 

His dad however...has NO shortage of a Christmas list for me.  Everything from gift cards to a tattoo to an air brush with an air compressor.  Pretty much he wants stuff that he can say "oooo look what I got" then not to mess with it again. 

'Cause that's the kind of man he can be.  No doubt, both of my men are going to make out like bandits..even if it breaks the bank slightly.   What can I say...they deserve the best.  No...I don't want to blow all of our money on material things because that's not what Christmas is about.  However, Greg gave up a lot this past year...and if I wanna spoil Jaden a little...that's my choice.

For me, I don't want anything.  I just want Jaden and Greg to have a good day.  I did want a moby wrap, but I don't want anyone to spend the money on it.  I think it's too much, and way too "lavish" for me.

Well, the kiddo is waking up.  Gotta wrap this up.
