If it is, I could be in trouble! I haven't bought the first Cmas present and while to some people this might not seem like a big deal, to me it's huge. I am normally in full spirit by now with lists of who I need to buy for, what they want and how much I plan to spend on them. Then once I buy a gift, I write that down along with how much I spent so I can stay within budget....hey I try at least! It's now November 6 and I don't feel a bit of holiday spirit nor do I have any idea what I plan to buy for anyone...least of all my kids. The realization of how spoiled they are has hit me hard this year as I realize there isn't one thing that I can think of to get them. Oh they can think of things...as I type this the girls are beside me composing their lists...but let me assure you, they are copying words out of a toy book without any regard for the item itself! At 6 almost 7 years old, I'm out of ideas. Either they have it, they're too old for it, or they're too young for it. Talk about a tough age! Brennan isn't any better. If anyone has any great gift ideas, please, send them my way.
I don't like to buy just to buy. But I know that December 25 will come and I will need to be prepared. Here's hoping my job stress lets up some and that the Cmas spirit surprises me .... soon!
This is Hard, Y'all!

You need to get a Christmas music CD out and listen to it. That always works for me. :-) I'm having a difficult time thinking of something for Brooke and Nathan. They have all of Lenny's toys. But of course, they have to have new things too. I'll be ready for Christmas shopping as soon as we get past their birthday in two weeks.
OH MY GOSH - I can't believe they're gonna be 1 already Kelli - that's just crazy!
