DH & I bought each other an iPad that we have been using for a couple months now. He also took Friday off (I already have off) to spend the day with me. This is a gift because his work schedule sucks royally and he's never able to take off with me. So we are spending the day together, without R, for the first time all year!

A solia flat iron, Sephora gift card, Kindle gift card, the urban decay naked palate, a set of nailpolish I love, and a few other things I can't remember. I tried to really ask for things that were for me this year. I always end up getting stuff for the kids and there isn't much for Jack at Sephora.
Can't really help you there, all I asked for for Christmas was a house (we rent at the moment). We're not getting each other anything in order to save our money for our down payment.
I like the idea of taking a day off together, that would be pretty awesome right now with all the crazy hours and weekends that he's been working.
Well that's what I would really enjoy...however, we now have a child and are working on the second so I don't think that's the best use of our $ anymore.
From DH I asked for a DSLR - Canon T2i and a lens to go with it. My birthday is also in December so it was a combined gift, which I already got on my birthday.
From my parents, ILs and BIL I just made an Amazon wish list to let them pick but here's some of what's on it:
-Hat and Scarf
-Gel floor mat for in front of the stove in the kitchen
-Rainboots
-This Camera bag because they are awesome and double as your purse.
- Nonstick omlette pan and a small sauce pan
- Auxilary Flash for my camera, Memory cards, and Adobe Photoshop Elements
- 5-6 Movies - Megamind, Tangled, Sabrina, Noting Hill and The Game of Thrones series, and the Charlie Brown Holiday specials DVD collection
- A couple board games - Apples to Apples and Clue
I dont expect anyone to get me all of that stuff but it gives them a variety to pick from of stuff I know I would like to get at some point.
And furniture, my parents are moving out, they bought a house, but that will leave my walls bare, my dinning room and living room empty, and three empty bedrooms upstairs.
Haha!! I also wondered if there was more than one type of "strap on" after reading that....
All i wanted was "spiral curler" curling iron and some new running shoes. However i got impatient and bought the curler on my own, and yesterday we went ahead and got me some Nike shox and some nike sandals with cushy soles!
He got me a few other "surprise" items (a mug with mine and LO's pic on it, a "shake n' take" blender, k-cup holder), he isn't good at keeping surprises so he already told me what everything was, hahaha!

Honestly I want to re-do the window treatments in our house and I'd like a new refridgerator so we can keep the old one in the garage just for beverages. With all the separate milks and other stuff for DS there is no room.
I asked for a dishwasher & its currently sitting at our IL house waiting for us to come pick it up SO EXCITED I have washed dishes by hand for 33 yrs & cannot wait until I plug that bad boy in!! Too bad it will have to wait till after the holidays seeing as we now have to get new cabinets & counter top too...but its SO close I can hardly stand it!!
I want a pony and a princess house and a magic wand and a....
Oh, grown up wants. I just want silicon bakeware, and one of those spiral doodley thingees, and a persona bracelet where DH hand picks out the charms.

DH and I had agreed not to get each other anything. Then he said that he was going to go out and get my gift. I tried to pry it out of him- see if he needed a coupon to a certain store. He was going to get me an iPad2. I turned him down. Yes, I am a big loser. But, really, my child doesn't nap much and when he does I have to do chores. So, when would I use it? I've asked for some kick booty eye cream instead.

DH was going to get me a Kindle Fire until I was saying that I would want to wait until the 2nd or 3rd gen of it so they work out the bugs, lol!
I asked for a new slow cooker, new radio for the bedroom, matching jewelry sets (cheapies from Target, Walmart, etc).
If I had thought more, i would have asked for a new microwave because ours barely works.
I've asked for some kick booty eye cream instead.
I asked for Seasons 4 & 5 of Friday Night Lights and Ken Burns Prohibition.
I also asked for a lens for my camera (all I have is my kit lens).
I got him a watch, because I'm a bad@ss bargain shopper.
My sister is getting me a new pair of Uggs
My mom and brother are doing gift cards
My DH is getting me the new iphone and I'd like to treat myself to an iPAD.
