My 2012 Christmas Wish List

I can't believe next week is Thanksgiving.  It'll be Christmas before we realize it so I created my 2012 Christmas wish list a little early this year.  I had a hard time deciding what I'd like to have because usually if there's something I'm interested in, I buy it.  Or it's a big ticket item which requires agreement from Rick as well.  So I hope you enjoy my picks!

1.  Carlson Patterned Crew Neck Sweater - a gorgeous sweater that you can dress up or dress down.  Wear to work or at home.  Love it!

2.  Apple EarPods - because the ones that came with my old iPod are outdated and blown.  I like my music loud when running so it's time for new speakers.

3.  Hand Stitched Small DSLR bag - because my current camera bag is big, bulky and black (where is your mind?).  It's not fashionable nor is it easy to carry around.

4.  LouLou Natural Leg Warmer/Boot Socks - when you're wearing boots, you need a good warm sock.  If that sock can also look really cute, that's a plus!

5.  Bunji BAND Elastic Headband - look, do I really thing this is some great gift that I'll be super happy to receive?  It's no Coach purse, but sometimes you have to put things you need on your list too.  I need this for running.  My current band sucks at holding my wisps out of my face.

6.  Toms Burlap Alessandra Ballet Flats - I love Toms!  These would be both fashionable and comfortable and again, can be dressed up or down.  Must have these!

What's on your list this year?  Anything you're dying to have?

Adalyn's 2012 Christmas List

With today bringing the first snow to Ohio, it's time to get serious about Addie's Christmas list.  Here are a few items we've been thinking she would enjoy to see Christmas morning.

1.  KidKraft Savannah Dollhouse - $109.97.  This is the one big ticket item I'm keeping my eye on.  Because what girl doesn't love a dollhouse?

2.  Fisher Price Servin Surprise High Chair Set - $19.97.  Addie is in love with her dolls and always puts them in her highchair.

3.  Fisher Price Laugh & Learn Say Please Tea Set - $17.88.  Addie is in the new stage where she likes to pretend.  Tea is perfect!

4.  Melissa & Doug Deluxe Standing Easel - $46.93.  She loves coloring and if I can somehow contain her to one area to color on, perfect!

5.  KidKraft Waterfall Mountain Train Set & Table - $119.96.  Oi, so this list is a little pricey.  We'll only purchase one larger priced item but Addie could spend hours playing with trains.

6.  Fancy Nancy Petite Library - $10.19.  We read Fancy Nancy every night and I'm getting tired of talking about cupcakes and hair so we need to add some new books to the collection.

7.  Carters Sweater Knit Poncho - $19.20.  Loving this poncho!

What items are on your kids' Christmas lists this year?  Would love to hear more ideas.
