DD 12 (13 Jan 8th.) has primarily asked for one of three things
1) An I phone (don't know if we will be able to get this on FIL's employee account as Sprint hasen't opened it to employees yet)
OR
2) An Android phone. Specifically the HTC EVO
OR
3) An E reader tablet
She's also still into Monster High so she has asked for a few of them as well. Oh and a swiss army type of pocket knife . She will be getting one of the first three. Probably the EVO and I've already bought the MH Doll Cleo which was on her list. The pocket knife will go in her stocking with lip gloss, nail polish, some makeup and headbands or hair clips probably also we go to Great Wolf for Christmas Eve and Christmas so I will drop a roll of quarters for the arcade and a 5 or 10 dollar bill into her stocking to go with whatever spending money her grandparents give her. Other than that she really isn't asking for anything. I did pick up a mini donut maker for her and I plan to buy a selection of sprinkles to go with it. I know she'll love it as she's the baker of our family but she didn't ask for it. I also got her a themed clue game since she's into mystery's and board games and a world record trivia book. Oh and Santa is bringing the whole family season passes to our local theme park and waterpark combo. We got ones for just the theme park last year and they were a huge hit. The addition of the water park should send that gift over the top this year. That's probably it for Christmas which is a good thing with her birthday coming up right after. For her birthday she want's a keyboard. She'll get it plus some music books and an outfit plus maybe another MH doll if I get a great deal on the other stuff.

DD has only asked for an ipod dock/radio station and an ipod touch. If I can get a deal like BF for $150, we will probably get it for her. Otherwise, she says there is nothing she wants. Shocking because her sibs have no trouble coming up with stuff. She also says she doesn't like to make lists, she'd rather be surprised.

She will get some new pjs, books, and DS games. Maybe some bath & hair stuff.

 

[StitchandPooh'sMom]

DD12 is asking for a new iPod Touch (she has one without a camera), a new cell phone (wants an Android), iTunes gift cards and a new bike.

 

[luvmy2sams]

DD (13 in January ) has requested:

Coach purse
UGGs
Jewelry
iTunes gift card
Money for clothes

So glad we planted that money tree in the spring.

Mine has very little on her list so I'm going to call AT&T and see how much it will cost to either upgrade her phone to an iPhone early, cancel her plan altogether, or keep paying the $9.99 for her line and get the free 3GS with a new number.


She is asking for some art supplies and a few little trinkets.

If you are getting her an iphone, I would pay for the smallest 4s (or at least a 4) instead of the free 3gs. It is the current version and won't be outdated as quickly.

DD12 (13 on 12/26) is asking for:

Uggs
Toms
Gift cards to American Eagle, Aeropostale, Forever 21
Vinylmation
Itunes cards
Victoria's Secret Pink sweatshirts
pink hair streaks
Cold hard cash

Keeping in mind her bday is the next day, she will probably get these between the two celebrations and a few surprises.

Why can't Toms or Uggs ever go on sale?

 

[aprilgail2]

My daughters has a birthday in Nov so she got 2 north face sweatshirts and a north face coat for that--

Her Christmas list is basically

ipad2 (she is getting it)
37 books

 

[Zim]

My DD13 is a fan of Hot Topics - they have lots of themed items like Gir, Nightmare Before Christmas, Twilight and Pirates of the Caribbean.

She's also asking for the Disney Universe video game because you get to dress your character up.

And she doesn't know it but she's also getting a Kindle, which I think she'll be thrilled about.

 

[Terry36]

Looks like there are alot of options for us who are still looking for ideas.

Target has an Itouch - 8GB for $195 (in store), then there is a 10% coupon on Target's website that you can print, then if you spend $150 or more you get a $20 gift card. Not $150 but not a bad deal.

DD13 worked on her list this weekend (for DH's side it's traditional to do a big list complete with cut-out pictures).

Wii Disney Universe
Wii Mario Kart
Wii Super Mario Bros
Wii Mario Party
Several Disney DVDs we don't have or else have in VHS and want to replace
Project Runway Magazine Editor set
Scribblish board game
Rory's Story Cubes game
BAB polar bear
camera
weaving loom
Microdesigns coloring book

I get her an ornament every year- this year it is a panda. She is really into pandas and polar bears this year, so she is also getting a polar bear tee from Old Navy. She generally couldn't care less about fashion unless it has a panda, polar bear, or Goofy on it. Though she was digging the Uggs tennis shoes we saw simply because she has knobby feet and fluffy is always a good thing- however they started at size 7 which is too big.

DH wants to get the girls an Ipod docking station. He also wants to upgrade her Tracfone, but I don't know if we will.

I plan to get her the Keri Smith book "Finish This Book". I'm really unsure what it's going to be like, but so far there are 4 rave reviews on Amazon. Anybody have it already?

 

[momto2inKC]

My almost 13 year old wants a laptop and Pikachu stuff from Hot Topic. She's also getting a green Chi flat iron that I just ordered from QVC. Other than that things like books, pj's, Itunes cards, and bath products.
