V-Day Gifts?

What are you giving your DH and LO's?  Any idea what they are getting you?

I got Haley an iTunes GC, a magazine, heart-shaped box of chocolates and some gum.  Caleb is getting some Woody/Buzz Lightyear candy and a Magnadoodle.  For Jim, I got a really nice light blue sweater vest and a GC for a massage.  No idea what I may be getting...hoping for something spa related!

Re: V-Day Gifts?

  • We decided not to do any real gifts this year. We have had several  birthdays the past couple of weeks, including mine and Allie's.  I got Allie a card and a really cute book.  I got DH a card and few different types of candy (he has a huge sweet tooth!)
    Allie ~ 01/26/09 ~ 7 lbs, 9 oz ~ 20.75 in. & Amelia ~ 03/16/11 ~ 8 lbs, 1 oz ~ 21 in.

  • I'm about to purchase a much needed new cell phone but we aren't really "getting" each other anything...With the baby coming it just seems a little strange to spend the money on each other right now...

  • Dh and I won't do any gifts. We haven't been able to spend much alone time together lately so thats our gift to each other. I'm also going to make him some chocolate covered strawberries. :o)

     

    I've been a slacker for the kids though. Things have been so crazy I haven't even gotten them anything, yet. I hope to get Abby a new sippy cup, a book, and some pjs.

    Nate will get some chocolates, a book, and either a game stop gc or a cd he's been wanting.

  • I don't think we are getting each other anything.  We've never been big into V-day.

  • We're not really big into Vday, we'll probably do something small for each other.  To be honest, I haven't really even thought about it. 

  • We are going out to eat and maybe a movie. I also bought some lingerie for DH and probably a Xbox 360 game and card. I will probably get a card, chocolates, and flowers.

    Don't have any LO's yetSad maybe the lingerie will help with that!

    LOL... best of luck to ya!

    DH and I are planning dinner and a movie. The plan is no gifts, but I wouldn't argue with some flowers. :) IDK what to do for DD. Maybe a new outfit or something.

    Great idea Rachel!  Those are Jim's favorite...maybe I'll make some for him!

  • I got Wes some Hershey Kisses and Hugs (huge sweet tooth and in a corny way I am giving him Hugs and Kisses..yes I am a dork lol)  and a card...we aren't big into gifts for V'day.  I am making him a magnetic picture frame w/a pic of Aubrey from Aubrey.  I haven't got a clue what I'll be getting...honestly probably flowers..he knows I am trying to get the baby weight off so he'll stay away from the candy hopefully! 

    We are getting a date afternoon Saturday so we are heading to Bridgestreet to eat at Conners and go to a movie.  

    For Aubrey I got her a cute little Valentines book and I made her a new taggie blanket.  

  • DH and I will prob just go to a nice dinner at some piont this weekend.

    For AC, I went overboard (I have just been grabbing deals when I see them and putting them away for vday, Easter, etc.)

    For Vday, I got her a stuffed animal (cat) from Ikea that was on sale for $2.99 when I went in Jan

     a how-to doll,

    some Disney DVDs that I found on sale around xmas

    and a little pasta/colander set for her kitchen that was on clearance at PBK after Christmas.

  • Brooke those how to dolls look really neat!  They are on sale right now that might be something I pick up and put away for Aubrey for next year. 
  • DH and I don't usually do much for valentines. (It's not my favorite holiday!) But, I am going to get him a guitar hook to put in his office so that he can hang his third guitar on the wall. (Romantic, I know. ha. But that way he won't have to worry about K knocking over his guitar on the floor.)

    I've asked him for a new pair of running shorts for the gym. That's it for us. We may go to a movie on Friday.

    I honestly hadn't thought about getting anything for K. I guess I should... I just thought since she doesn't know what Valentines is yet and is too young for sweets, we'd skip it this year.

  • I got Robinson an "Elmo Loves" book

    DH and I won't do anything- we never do...Valentines Day just isn't really big for us, but that's probably b/c it's only 1.5 months after my bday and less than a month before his bday.

  • We aren't exchanging gifts, and I hadn't planned on getting anything for Jaxon since he's so young. 

    We were going to go to Scottsboro for the weekend and sneak off to Huntsville for P.F. Chang's on Saturday, but with the snow (hopefully) tomorrow we probably will stay in town.  Which is fine bc we will have a relaxing weekend here...but I was looking forward to our date. 

  • we got iPhones last week - that's probably our gift to each other.  I got a card from Avery to DH but other than that, we're not doing much.  I *MAY* swing by Toys R Us and get her a crawl thru tunnel for her...

     Sunday we're going to swim lessons and then pikcing up take out dinner somewhere - probably at Phil's because Rosie's is closed
