Dorian wanted a drum set, a guitar and a camera.
Malachai wanted SpongeBob Operation.
Eshiva doesn’t care (though she wants everything lol)
I did my holiday shopping for my kids today. Dorian is getting a digital camera. My dad got it from work for his 10 years anniversary. He opened it, took two photos, and put it back in the box. He has offered it to me to repackage and wrap and re-gift. Good stuff! It’s a nice camera, and will be the first one D has that isn’t a hand-me-down because I’ve replaced an old one. I plan to get him a nice case for it, and maybe some photo paper for the printer. I’ve got some spare SD cards laying around, so we can hook him up with one of those as well. My dad picked up a cheap (20$) telescope for him as well, and I bought him an origami kit for about 8$ (on sale too!), so other than a few small (5$ or less) items we’re all done.
Malachai did indeed get SpongeBob Operation – we picked it up at Target a few weeks ago for ten bucks! Yay for clearance items! We also got him a Radio Flyer Big Wheel (his “big” gift) to replace his bike. He wont get on the bik, even with both training wheels on, so we are thinking low and stable is the way to go. This one is adjustable and he should be able to use it for a good while (a few years at the least). Again, a fer 5$ or less goodies and he’ll be done too.
Eshiva got dollhouse furniture. I need to find dolls to go with it, but I have some people she can use until I find better ones.
In addition to that haul, I got a 60 piece wooden block set, a box of dinner games/questions (instead of us eating and running), and a Channukah book I had wanted to get last year but couldn’t find. I picked up one or two other books but I need to keep them a surprise.
We’re going Black Friday shopping for my Dad, Michael and Sara. Dad is funding their stuff, but in exchange of getting up at the asscrack of dawn to get it, we get to put our names on it lol Oh, I’ll get them some stuff too, but that sutff is their “big” stuff. I need to find something for Dad…
Channukah is Dec 4 this year, so I am about out of time.
