Smartie's early lists

[SmartieMeUp]

I haven't bought a single thing which is a huge shocker for me, as I'm normally half way to finishing by September It really is going to be a small 'budget' Christmas this year - Both DD's literally have everything. I'll be buying everything last minute as I haven't bothered saving a penny for Christmas and we've been a bit wild over the holidays.

Yay the first list post of the year. Following

Great lists!

 

[SmartieMeUp]

Well, OH asked DD1 about having a new bedroom for her birthday but she doesn't want it. Tried to say having a double bed would be beneficial when her cousin sleeps but nope. She's asked for some Holly Jackson books (yikes, they're thriller/murder-esque, but aimed at the younger generation) which OH has bought her.

Really stumped this year. Help is needed

 

[motherofboys]

Eek! That's a tricky one
Sorry, I'm no help, I have no experience with girls haha

 

[SmartieMeUp]

DD1 wants some Dr Martens boots and she's sent me an Amazon wishlist featuring clothes, makeup and flags - so I guess that will be the things she'll get.

 

[motherofboys]

At least you know they'll be things she likes

Always love your lists. I have no idea what to get my girls this year. X

 

[Mum21boy1girl]

Great lists! My youngest will be 12 this yr and it’s so much harder (and expensive) than when they just wanted toys lol

 

[SmartieMeUp]

It's far too expensive nowadays. DD2 has asked for a bike which has thrown a spanner in the works being that I didn't really want "main presents" this year. Now it means I'll be needing to get DD1 a main

Myy twins want bikes for their birthday in November, I have managed to convince them to wait until March/April time by saying the weather will be too cold for riding them, its hard isnt it, could you do something with your older daughter in the New Year, like an iou present? Both my older boys presents are off Amazon and I am paying it over 5 months no interest.
