re: Santa question

Quoting Smartass *TTC*:" Every present he gets is from Santa. That is how we always did it growing up, so that is what I do too."

Well smurf you for keeping it simple!   Man, I wish I had thought of that. The precedent has been set now though. He knows he gets stuff from Santa AND from family.

Quoting Dani Lynn:" <blockquote><b>Quoting *beck-i* {JAS08}:</b>" I don't write who they are from because ... [snip!] ... say Santa doesn't have time to write it out and leaves it to mommy to write it. More than one kid? Two different Santa papers"

That works too... I might just do that because it would be easier then having 10 different types of paper... haha I just like variety but I do hate having to sign all those tags!!

HAHAA. Sometimes I hate that I don't get credit though, as silly as that sounds.

Oh yeah. Santa always has his own paper. He did when I was a kid and he does now for my kids. And she's got a good point about just having two different Santa papers, one for each kid. Then you don't have to worry about tags.


Or, wrap everything to one child and then stack them up and print a sign for the stack? And then wrap up the other set and print another sign?

And I think variety is fine for gifts from you. Just trying to keep Santa simple.

but eventually you will

Aww, but you still get birthdays. Lol. And you'll get the credit for it when he grows up!

Maybe I should print labels from Santa on the computer... But, he knows mommy has made labels before for goody bags at daycare..

I'll just have my dad write gift tags I think..

Damn, this is complicated lmao

I think when I have to start using labels for Santa's presents, I'm just going to do different letters than my normal handwriting. Just make them really curly and pretty. Written in red and green ink and stuff. Really do it up all fancy. I love Christmas. I've always wanted to do the metallic wrapping papers, too. Like the presents you see on TV and in photos.

we buy 3 different wrapping papers. one girly, one for an 'older' boy like star wars, and 1 for a younger boy like thomas or something. i print the "from santa" tags so nobody catches onto my handwriting lol.

this year, they are each getting a 3DS with games. the system will be from santa, the games from us

i got chloe spongebob, toy story & i think there was another
but im going to get a small roll of a santa one for his gift.

[snip!] ... usually i say more then one thing is from santa but just this yr im saying one is plus the stuck in her stocking is from him.."</blockquote>


Yes the stockings are always Santa here too.  

Quoting JiLLiAN.:" How do you decide what gifts are from Santa, and which are just from you? I didn't really buy LO any ... [snip!] ... Rescue bots.. would you make them both from you/Santa, or one from each? Idk why I'm making this harder than it has to be lol"

Everything is from santa except for 1 gift from mommy and daddy and one gift from their sibling (they pick out a gift for eachother). All santa presents get wrapped in santa wrapping paper and the present from mommy and daddy and sibling get wrapped in character paper of what they are into that year. Also stocking is from santa.

Quoting *beck-i* {JAS08}:" I don't write who they are from because DS recognizes my writing haha so we just leave them blank and ... [snip!] ... leave them blank and come up with it as we go... it is kind of a fly by night operation on christmas morning at our house lol"

I always sign SANTA's signature in all CAPS... LOL That way they can't tell.
