Black Friday List for your kids?

Anyone make a list yet of things you plan to buy or look out for on Black Friday? Its coming quick, less than 3 weeks. And with Miley arriving in 10 days or less, I wanted to get a jumpstart on my internet searching for new toys & such for Aubrey.

Any ideas? What are you getting your kids this year for Christmas? Feel free to post links & pictures.

We dont get much for the kids, only about $50 per child, so we just get alot of little things. Books, puzzles, crayons, police stuff for my son, lol...ect. Baby dolls. That kind of stuff.
I dont ever make a list, I just go and look at pick out some stuff.

yeah, i am only doing a stocking for carson. he doesn't NEED a damned thing, honestly. my parents are getting him a wagon and then just putting money in his bank account. he has way too much he doesn't even touch.

We spent about $500 last yr on Aubrey, and thats okay with usbecause we dont buy her a ton of toys during the year. I buy her lots of clothes, but toys are reserved for special occasions or if I see something I cant pass up or she absolutely wont put down in the store.

This year we plan on doing about $300 for her, whatever else I see for the baby, then the two of us. But other than accessories for her dollhouse Im at a loss for things to get her.

Right, the kids have sooooo many toys they dont even play with them all. I tell people to get them clothes for the year ahead and just a couple toys if they insist.

My dad used to buy us tons of stuff when we were growing up too. Hundreds of dollars.
The whole living room would be filled with gifts (there was four of us kids) and there was a path going into the living room. lol. Sooooo much stuff.

yeah carson has up to 24 months, and he is only in 12 months still. & idk when he will be in 24 so i don't want to buy summer or winter designated clothes, i'll just save the money for when he needs them.

I dont spend a whole lot on Christmas... mainly b/c we're big on teaching our kids that Christmas isnt about presents and how much you get... I'd say we spent about $200 or maybe $300 and thats for BOTH of our kids combined.

I've already got my Xmas shopping done for the kids but will use Black Friday to get birthday stuff since my 2 oldest birthday's are only a few months away..

For my youngest, who will be 18 months, I got








4 Baby Einstein books
2 Infantino Puzzles
a Melissa & Doug Puzzle
Bath Toys
Toddler Crayons & Winnie The Pooh Coloring Book..

I think that should pretty much do her for now. She's got a lot of toys to work with already having 2 older siblings.

yea, thats a big reason why we dont over do it on gifts. We like focusing on family, church and the story of Jesus. My kids dont care at all, they dont know any better so the handful of presents they get are just awesome by themselves.

See, neither one of us are religious. And both of us LOVE Christmas time. We want our kids to grow up expecting tons of gifts on Christmas. We dont spoil them rotten throughout the year, so we want Christmas to be something to look forward to. It was that way for us and we want it to be that way for them too.

Aubrey was about 14-15 months last Christmas and we got her the Dora ballpit and the piggy bank that you posted. She still loves the ballpit, but never really liked the pig. lol

Awww, that Piggy Bank is so cute! That might be undermy Christmas tree this year.

my parents spend a lot on me and my brother, like $400 each, but other than that, they don't buy us anything throughout the year anymore now that we are older and have jobs. although, my dad does pay for my car stuff, since it was his. i bought it off of him for $2500 but then it sat for about 2 months since i didn't have my license, so a few things started to break..lifters, passenger side ball joint, tires, so he paid for that. but i paid for the car and insurance so it's not like i'm spoiled. lol

carson really likes his fisher price little people...but he has 6 and i just bought him 3 more..and he doesn't do much with them yet, just carries them around in his mouth lol so i'm not gettign him a lot of them.
