Christmas shopping almost finished!


I took the 4 Little ones to the store today to try to finish up the majority of Christmas shopping. B was certainly a little pistol trying to climb out of the cart. The kids handed him a small ball while we were in the toy aisle, so he thought it was fun to throw it and have mommy "go fetch". Baby J was content until we arrived at the checkout lane. By the way, I can't stand that they put a bunch of candy at the checkout lane. I understand that it is for people to impulse buy, but can't they have at least one lane that doesn't have candy?

So, here is what I bought so far. This is going to be great for me to check here to see what I bought because they are already wrapped!

G: I bought him a Wii game, but I have to take it back because I didn't notice that it had "mild language" on it until I got home. I didn't realize that kids' games have mild language in them. : ( States and capital game to share with M, Roller Blades
M: Kid's bow and arrow, states and capital game to share with G, Strawberry shortcake game
P: Connect Four to share with R,
R: Roller Blades, Connect 4 to share with P
T: Baby doll with stroller, Leap frog Scribble and Write, Don't Break the ice game to share with Little M
Little M: Cap gun and holster, cowboy hat, Don't Break the ice game to share with T, Knights tube to put in stocking
B: Leap frog Alphabet pal, Glow in the dark stuffed animal (like glow worm), and ball

I have also bought some stocking items: punch balloons, cheap movies from Salvation Army, cheap books from the Salvation Army, push cars, etc. Time to clear out my prize box and start again!

I need to buy some pipe cleaners and art supplies from the $1 store. The kids have asked for art supplies for Christmas.

Other things still on the list to buy: G- Wii game, R: Remote control Air Hogs Nano car, M: a small mp3 player when they go on sale for $10.00, P: a Miraculous Medal necklace and rubber stamps

I think that is it. I bought everything on sale or second-hand, which I don't think they mind!
