Need some gift ideas for Birthdays or Christmas?  We would love anything you’d give us…but if you have no idea where to start, here are a few: (updated Fall 2009)

Tina

  • There are book and CD ideas on my Amazon Wish List that I didn’t feel like relisting here and keep updating.
  • Gift card for some clothing items post baby (Target is easy for me to get to)
  • Gift card towards a food processor (or you can give me one, but figure it’s out of most people’s budget for gifts)
  • Chocolate brown or black picture frames–8×10 or 11×14.
  • I always love candles, since I feel bad getting them for myself–Pumpkin, Kitchen Spice, Apple Spice/Apple Pie are ones I love in winter. 
  • Fleece pullover–size XL
  • Colts clothing would be fun (a Colt’s Feece! but those can be pricy.)

James (Still working on updating this)

Will

  • Construction trucks he can play with/make do things (Mainly a digger he can use in the dirt, he has a dump truck & bull dozer)
  • Matchbox/Hot Wheel activity sets
  • Fire truck things
  • T-ball stand/bat/ball (He has a sudden love for baseball)
  • PJs–long sleeved, long pants, size 6
  • Fleece pullover, size 6

Either boy would love some Matchbox sized NASCAR cars. Any car would be loved–but especially the Lowes car, M&M car, or Ryan Newman.  Sports are becoming more popular with both boys as well (playing football, baseball, soccer, etc.)

Alex

  • 4T cotton pjs w/ long pants (must be cotton for itchy skin)
  • Fleece pull-over or sweaters
  • Cars/trucks/fire trucks that have doors that open or something “extra” like that
  • Matchbox/Hot Wheel activity sets
  • He REALLY wants Construction trucks (digger or dump truck, again, things he can do things with)…he specifically talked about a roller/compactor or grader today.
  • Semi-truck with trailer (He LOVES having the trucks pull the trailers around, but keeps taking Will’s)
  • A kid golf set (probably not plastic, we’ve heard they break pretty quickly)

 Baby Boy #3

  • Sling for me to carry him in
  • Diapers
  • He could probably use 1-2 cute outfits of his own: Size 0-3 Winter, 3-6 Winter, 6-9 Spring/Summer
