Poll: Christmas gift for DH

I wanted to do something special for DH this Christmas since it is our first one in our new house and with the baby, but I have no ideas.  I usually get him electronics/techie stuff which he loves, but this year I want to do something a little more sentimental.

What are you ladies getting DH for Christmas?  Any ideas? 

Re: Poll: Christmas gift for DH

  • What about a really nice piece of jewelry to commemorate this time... or a great watch.  Something that he can have for years.  My SIL always makes my brother a cheesy calendar for work with family pics or just pics of the kids.  It's really corney, but he loves getting it every year and showing it off to whoever passes his desk.

  • Jordan wants a PS3. How about no.

    ETA: I'm stuck on what to get him this year (I promise you it's not going to be a PS3!). Jordan really likes wine and I was going to research my area and see if we could get away for a weekend to a winery. I know there are a few that are within driving distance...I'll see what I can find!

  • I got John a PS3 and the new Call of Duty game.  From what I have been reading from some of you girls on ND, I think I'll be a COD widow for a few weeks!  We skipped gifts last year b/c of the wedding, so I wanted to get something that I know he really wanted for this year. 
  • We're not doing anything this year, so I'm no help.  But I agree that a watch or something like that might be nice.
  • I ordered DH a coat the this week because his seems to be on it's last legs.  (This will be his surprise item.)  After I've had the iPhone for the past 2+ years, he finally decided he wants it, too, so I'm also getting him that.  I also ordered him a bunch of new socks as stocking stuffers last time I ordered tights for myself.  I'll probably get him a book or two as well.

  • I really like the watch idea.  Plus you could have it engraved with something special.  Also, maybe as a stocking stuffer you could make him a mouse pad or coffee mug or collage of photos of Nathan for him to have at work. 
  • I have no idea.  BJ wants a PS3 also (no COD though lol) but thats just not in the budget right now.  My graduation is Dec 19, Christmas is obviously the 25, our 1 year anniversary is the 31 and then Jan is his Bday and Feb is mine.  I'm trying to convince him to say no to presents for all 5 of those days and we'll just save the money and go on vacation in the spring or summer.
