Christmas Gift HITS

[KristinCB]

With the holiday approaching many of us will be doing shopping for our kids/family/friends.. I was thinking it might be a good idea to share some of those gifts from past years that were huge HITS! Would be helpful for ideas on what we should buy!

for our first christmas together my husband and I did not have a lot of money to spend. we had a newborn baby as well so my husband got me an inexpensive camera which I used for years til it got misplaced. I loved it so much though.

Last year my husband replace my Nintendo DS with a DSi XL. I loved it. Have not used it a ton in the last few months though.

Two years ago, DH got me a necklace from Tiffany that was my initial (it was actually a "b" but Bea is my nickname). I love how simply sophisticated it was. Favorite gift for my girls: my oldest love the camera my parents got her last year and anything Thomas related.

Last year we got Mya the Weeble Treehouse. I had worried that she would tire of it quickly, but it was on the top of her Christmas list. Turns out it's has been one of her favorite toys all year long and this year she's asked for more Weebles and a Weeble car.

Last year I got Nicholas one of those kid tough cameras on a whim at the Black Friday sales. He loves it and its so cute to watch him set up shots. He also got a vReader and I was suprised by how much he plays with it. I was afraid it would be one of those toys he only plays with a short while before never touching again, but he loves it. It does go through batteries like no ones business though, so get the adapter.

Pillow Pets have been a huge success with both boys. I didn't think they would love them this much, but they did. They were great in the car when I moved from Washington to New Mexico... This year I'm thinking about getting them the "baby" version of their big ones just because

YES!!! My son, too, LOVES his vtech vreader!! He uses it daily... Another big hit for him for the last few years is his little tyke cozy coup... he drives that around all over the house every day. He loves books, puzzles, and of course, his cars and trains... if it has wheels it is awesome in his eyes...
