DH - I think we are getting a dog (not a puppy but a 2 year old rescue dog) so if we do that is his gift.  That and some motorcycle painting but I'm trading and doing the guys website for that so it doesn't cost any money.

my parents - a grandparents book w/ pictures of the kids and either a gift card to go to dinner, some money for when they go to England to visit my brother (like paying for the shuttle from the airport to the bus station) or a gift card for an airline (we did that last year and they liked that alot)

my MIL and FIL - a grandparents book w/ pictures of my kids and my SIL's kids and a gift card for something

my brothers - well I pay for the gift for my parents and it's from all of us so that is what I give them.

Nieces/Nephew? - a few toys and an outfit each.  SIL is having a baby in early december so if it's a boy I already have stuff (clothes that I got big so DS can use them if the baby is another girl).  If she has a girl I have no idea what I'll get her, prob. diapers since she has toys and girl clothes coming out of her ears.

Other People - Friend and his wife and stepson, yankee candles and 2 movies.  Friends daughters - summer clothes since they live in Austrillia and its summer there in December.  Cousins child - a movie.  One Uncle - a book.  DCP and Cleaning lady - gift cards

I also make ornamets with the kids and that is what they give to the grandparents, aunts and uncles etc.

Godparents are always GC's, but everyone else ( I have no idea). I usually ask for ideas.
