We are about done buying for Alex.. and we STILL cant figure out what to get for Mikalah. I was thinking doll house. But.. I dont know if that is what she would really like. Then.. I think. Seriously. She is 3. She will like anything. But I dont want to get her crap. They have enough crappy toys. I know what she REALLY wants. A pet. Not gonna HAPPEN. She has this bizarre love for animals.. that no one else in our family does, except maybe her dad. I never went through this with Alex. I dont know..

Doesn't she like Minnie Mouse? Could you get her Minnie stuff?

I too have been bit by the Holiday Bug, but I'm taking them in order. I asked my inlaws if there was anything I could bring for Thanksgiving, like a can of jellied cranberry sauce.

Oooo, question! I have the Disney credit card, and I assume I have some points associated with it? How do I found out how much, and how do I convert them to a gift card or whatever?

A woman my dad worked with made Alex a cute little blanket with his name embroidered on it.. A little flannel thing. Very cute. He still has it.

I think if you go online to the chase website you can see how many reward points you have. There should be a link that says: "redeem points" I believe.

She has a TON of Minnie Mouse stuff. a TON. We went al out last year, when we were at Disneyland.

So if you open the can and put it in a bowl does that count as "cooking?"

My kids just want Many Stuff!

Staley, does Mikalah like Elmo? DS4 loooooved Elmo, so we got him a plush Elmo to snuggle one year, and for a birthday he got a Tickle Me Elmo. He loves them both. I just saw another Elmo on the View today; or rather I DIDN'T see what he did, I tuned in too late, but I assume he is new and does something cool, because they were all laughing so hard.

Yeah, the Many Stuff that costs Many Dollars.

Actually I'm the Stuffing Lady. I have no choice, it's just one of those things. Everybody likes my stuffing, obviously nobody else wants to make it, so I've become the Irwin Family Stuffing Lady at all official family functions.

So that means I get to spend Black Friday shopping in giant downtown Aberdeen, WA! I believe they have a KMart, Walmart & a JC Penney. If I was smart I would escape and head to Olympia, but then again I would probably get lost since I have never been there other than to drive thru on the way to Seattle.

Stuffing is goooodd Last year I walked by Williams Sonoma and they had a cooking class where they made their stuffing. It smelled soooo good and I was tempted to buy it.

LOL, cute Xmas tree and it's funny how she sticks her shades on the SHADE.
