Are you giving gifts from LO?

in February 2012 Moms

I was just thinking...are you going to give gifts to people from you LO?  I have a couple ornaments for the godparents but hadn't really decided if they were "from" Allison or just the family? Also, grandparents?  I have a hard enough time buying gifts from me much less Allison!

What are you doing?

    This.  When they're older we'll make stuff with them for relatives, or let them pick out something cheap.

    I think I am just going to sign all of our names to the gift tags/cards.  I'm still undecided if I'll get a gift for DH from Logan, though.

    H has two gifts that he wanted for his computer.  My plan is to put my name on one and the girls on the other, mostly because he'll see it and feel guilty that he didn't think to do the same, and that will likely earn me him taking the morning shift for an extra day Stick out tongue

    The only one who will get a gift from just Lauren will be Ryan! He needs a gift from his baby sister. We're going to make sure it's the best gift and one he really wants too!

    I'm not giving hubs a gift from Aria until she is old enough to help me pick it out. Hubs kind of eye-rolls at gifts from people who obviously had no hand in picking out the gift. (unless it's a craft or something personalized that Aria would have participated in.)

    Oh man, I never thought about getting the girls gifts from each other!

    I will for DH. And I'm not sure if it will be from DS or the whole family, but I got a "My First Christmas" personalized frame for each set of grandparents, and put DS's Christmas picture in it. Now that it has been brought up, I just may make that from DS to his grandparents.

    We are.  My family is suckers for Shutterfly so everything from Madison will be something from shutterfly.  Grandmothers are getting photo desk calendars, not sure about grandfathers yet.  DH is getting a photo ornament.  Oh I forgot, godparents are getting ornaments but they will not be photo.

    We'll do gifts from the whole family.  When she is old enough to make things herself, she'll make things for gifts, and those will be from her.

    We'll probably do gifts from the whole family but last year I did give one gift from DS because I thought it was cute. MIL has a charm necklace with all her grandkids- boy/girl shaped with the belly their birthstone. We bought one for DS (hoping he would stay in until Feb) and gave it to her on Christmas "from Landon".

    I wasn't going to, but I've framed photos of Gabe in My Aunt Rocks and My Uncle is Amazing shirts. So these will be to his aunts and uncles from him. He got a toy that he and Ruben will both enjoy (remote controlled car)... H and Gabe will play with it together, so it was only suiting that it was from him.

     So I kind of have. But it isn't really a 'real' gift.

    Same. We just don't have it in the budget to give individual gifts (even if they are super tiny). This way I feel better mentally giving MIL 2 gifts from all of us instead of one from Hayley and one from DH and me.
