Stocking question

Will you put your and your DH's name on your stockings or will you put "Mom" and "Dad"? Or something else?

  • Haha. Great point. Plus "Santa" doesn't know us as Mom and Dad right? ;)
  • Kelly and Kyle are on ours. Ds1 calls my husband (his dad) by his first name anyways because he hears me call him Kyle. I think it's funny.

  • Mine is actually my stocking from when I was a kid, so it says Megan on it.  And then my mom made my Husband his when we got married- so it has his first name too.  That is how it was when I was a kid too- parent's stockings had their first names. 

    I have thought it would be convenient if we had just gotten initials- it would be M, D and B which could stand for Meg, Dennis, and Bennett (our names ) or Mom, Dad and Baby.

  • We went with Mom and Dad as I asked DH and that was his preference.

    Mine has a B and his has a C. I made them for our first Christmas back when we were living together (in sin)

    You hor.

  • Ours say Mommy and Daddy.

    Mine has my name because my grandma made it for me when I was a baby.  I'd like to make stockings for DH and E to match mine.  If I do they will have their names on them.
    Confession time because I'm a dork.  My brother and I have matching old school Snoopy knit stockings that my nana stitched our names onto.  When Aiden was born I scoured Ebay and found one and my husbands grandmother stitched Aiden's name on it.  I have two more - one for Quinn and one for Ryan but he insists that's "my" thing and he shouldn't have a Snoopy stocking.  I think it's sweet and he need to nut up lol  Of course, we're out of grandmothers to stitch names on now :-/

  • I'm making stockings for us this year and am putting our names on them. Before I only had stockings for the pets, but I thought that now that we have a kid, we should probably have people stockings too. :)
  • I'm not buying a new stocking for O this year. We have an extra one that he will have this year with no name on it. I want to get monogrammed ones with all our first names on once we are done having kids.

  • We have stockings already but they don't have names one them. The boys both do though because it's a tradition that all the cousins in my family have the same kind and get them from this one aunt as their first Christmas gift. I get super annoyed because my MIL insists on buying stockings every flipping year because she is of a "the more stockings the merrier"  mentality but I make a point of only hanging the one traditionally sanctioned stocking per boy on the mantle. Because I moved to my husband's home town and live hundreds of miles from my family so I hold my damn ground on things like stockings. I'm not bitter ;)

  • We just have our first initial on our stockings. LO's stocking just says baby's first Christmas. Next year I'll get him a fun stocking and probably put his initial on it as well.
