I need to come up with a list for DH and his family - and am at a complete loss.  They do not believe in giving gift cards, and tell me I have to ask for something for myself not for baby or the house - so shoot me your ideas maybe they will inspire me!

    DH and I are asking for a joint gift of a Canon Camcorder. We really want to be able to take videos of LO when he is here.

    My in laws did that same thing. They said I had to think of something I wanted. It took me 2 weeks to think of anything I wanted for myself and I finally decided I wanted a down comforter. haha they said okay you need to tell us more than just one thing and I said nope thats all I want and anything off my registry :)

    A massage/spa day for after Kaylie comes.  Just a couple hours to get pampered for myself after some sleepless nights and everything else that will be going on with a new baby.

    And I'm asking for some seasons of my favorite shows to watch late at night while bf-ing or during nap time (if I'm not sleeping myself!)

    My Christmas list (with approx. pricepoints)

    - New Camera (I think I'm going with either Canon sx130 or Canon sd1400) ~ $150-200

    - speaker dock for my upcoming iphone 4 ~$30

    - satellite radio receiver (~$60) and home docking kit (~$40)

    - a pendant with my son's birthstone (garnet!)

    - a pair of crocs to use in the hospital (don't judge.  they are comfortable and can easily be washed out if they get gross/bled on) - my husband got these for me for like $13 online last week.  I've already tried them on Embarrassed

    - an inexpensive robe to use in the hospital

    - a hoodie with my alma mater on it (Villanova) - I just bought this online for myself on behalf of Tom. 

    - new pair of gloves - my husband was psyched to report that he got "such a good deal on this!" at kohls a week or two ago.

    I am asking for help after the baby comes. I know that sounds crazy but that is all I will need. I have 3 little ones and I will have a c-section so I have to get as much help as I can.

    The only thing I was able to come up with for inlaws, is Nursing friendly PJ's a robe and nursing tops. They can't say that it's for the baby, and really its for their benefit so I don't have my boobs hanging out all the time when they come and visit. Ha!

    My side of the family is sorta a bunch of hippies and we don't exchange gifts we just get together for the day and eat etc. DH side, well they never ask what we want they either send bizzar stuff or money lol but I know if anyone asks it would be a new SLR I'm looking at the D90

    Pretty much everything on my wish list is for the house-it is what I need right now.  My mother in law said I was boring, so I added some slippers from LL Bean, magazine subscriptions to Parents and Real Simple, and specialty flavored K cups for my keurig.  Still boring, but not for the house =)

    I just would like some nice nursing pajamas/ lounge clothes to wear around the house after LO is born.  Something girly like new perfume would be nice too.

    My mom has also mentioned coming to my house and cleaning while I am in the hospital/when I am home recovering. Honestly, that is gift enough for me!
