Cam is getting a bunch of Bitty Baby accessories (crib, changing table, stroller, etc).
Joey -- not sure yet. We are debating on a new quad --- and then giving Cam his current one. He's getting a bit too big for the one he has now. But it depends on how much money we have by December. We have his birthday in November and a week long trip to Disney for Thanksgiving as well so we might not be able to swing the quad this year. If we don't get him a quad, I have NO idea!
Big Santa things are a doll house and dolls for DD and a train table and tracks/trains, etc for DS. ?Then a bunch of random crap I've been collecting since Feb :-)
I bought DD several princess dolls last night. They were buy 2 get 1 free. I got 6 and will split them up between her birthday 11/25 and Christmas 12/25We are also going to the PPAC to see Disney Live. DD has already asked Santa (she called him) for a scooter with snow white on it. Other than that, nothing major this year. We are trying to save $.
I'm thinking of getting them an easel. and/or a small table and chairs.. then little items. ds loves hotwheels.. so he'll get some of those and maybe a case for them. dd loves animals... so that's easy... and then books.
Legos, legos, and more legos. He would play legos from sun up to sun down if we didn't do anything else. Regular sized legos, not the duplos. I picked up a bunch of sets when Target had their clearance sale this summer.
I also picked up some more games, puzzles, and a few other items, that I can't think of off the top of my head.
I'll probably also pick up some more train pieces as well to add to his track.
Their birthday is 12/12 (DS will be 3 and DD will be 1). DS is getting the Little Tikes Workbench that was on Woot a few weeks ago. Christmas he is getting a train trundle (have to force DH to make it, lol) and a Talking Thomas wooden set with extra trains. DD is getting a doll stroller for her birthday, she will be too young really but does not need anything else. She is getting the My First Dollhouse from Santa.
My Mom is getting them the easel from Costco, wooden with storage. And DD will be getting dolls (one will be Corolle tidoo which is supposed to be safe for the bath.) And I am not sure what she will get DS.
I am also considering getting DS Melissa and Doug unit blocks but not sure that I want to spend the extra $50.

Wait until you go to Disney! When we were there last week every shop had the "Castle" with all the princesses in it. DD wanted it soo bad and cried hysterically because she wanted it. We literally bought her everything she wanted on the trip but this because it was too big to bring back on the plane. It was also 75.00. The shop lady heard her cry and heard me say it was too big to take on the plane and she said we can ship it via UPS for 15.00. So, without dd knowing we did that and it came 2 days ago and she is getting it for Christmas. I also bought some other things in disney like princess washclothes that get big when they are put in water for her stocking and a bracelet. Let me see if I could find a pic and post it.

That sounds awsome!!!
Yep, I have a princess cone hat and some other things from our August trip tucked away. They have some really cute things at Tinkerbelle's next to the back of the castel.
DD is getting a mermaid Barbie, a wooden doll bed, and books from Santa. I'm making her a superhero cape and a fabric barn. For her birthday (also Christmas Day) she is getting a Lite Brite, and I'm making her a quilt.
DS is getting an automoblox, firetruck and wedgits from Santa. I'm making him a superhero cape and a fabric garage.
Baby is getting a First Christmas ornament, a rattle and a quilt that I'm making.
We may get a "family gift" of train accessories (roundhouse, turntable, bridges, etc) for the kids, but we haven't decided yet.
Kevs, my bro works at a Disney resort and told me those castles were 20% off right now. He was calling to tell me that he bought DD one for Christmas so we wouldn't buy it when we were there next week!

DS is getting a train table.
And that is all I know.
ETA: DD got that castle for her birthday and she LOVES it. It's played with a lot. We also had it shipped from Disney (in August!)
