I always love to ask this question! It's so interesting to read what others are getting their children for Christmas (and I've learned about new ideas for my daughter).
Here's what 8 year old Natalia is getting:
(We rarely watch TV so she loves to read and work on crafts.)
Orbeez Flower Power night light
American Girl new Caroline Abbott books
Newest Time Traveling Fashionista book
Well...lots of books
A book of hairstyles (for her long silky hair)
A tablet (for eReader use)
Mp3 player with a couple of albums already loaded
A few craft sets
Stocking stuffers like underwear, bath bubbles, jewelry, etc.
And, 2 year old Kennedy is getting (she is new to our family this Christmas :clap: ):
Tricycle
Little People Barn set
Toddler legos
Green Toys Build a Bouquet
Set of wooden puzzles
Board books
Stocking stuffers like underwear, toddler crayons and coloring book, magnet boards
And....if I can find one in stock anywhere :grr: a Wide Ideas Swing and Spin Swing for both girls.
Merry Christmas!!!!!
Love this...and great ideas!
Ethan (7 y/o bio son) is getting a green machine (from Santa), Ninjago Legos & a few figures (he's literally obsessed), some clothes (he needs them anyhow), a science kit, a pee-wee football (which my husband let him open tonight because he's playing flag football now), a Swat vest & Ninja belt (that I bought on clearance after Halloween...hello dress up fantasy shopping), a Bayblade set & a science kit.
Mila (14 mos) is getting a couple of outfits, a "Little People" House, baby legos (cause I know her brother will play them with her), a baby "phone", some princess DVD's (Anastasia & Cinderella + Toy Story 3...we already have 1 & 2 & I love them), a baby doll & Santa is bringing her the Rody Bounce Horse (because she loved it in the store).
I'm sure there are a few others things I've forgotten, but I wrapped everything yesterday & can't remember what all I got! haha
My favorite gift however was an idea I got from Pinterest & it's for both of them "to be opened XMas Eve at Sunset". It includes...bubble bath, PJ's for each, a DVD - Madagascar 3 (w/the wig included), a package of microwave popcorn, some candy, coca-cola, some fake snow (you add water & it expands) & "Raindeer Food". I can't wait for this one...its going to be a fun family night!!!!
Hope everyone has a safe & happy holiday season...we are so excited for Mila's first w/us! She's already circling the tree wondering what all this is about. :)

Alex is getting a little tykes cottage, a basketball hoop, educational toys, an assortment of balls (he knows the difference between the different kinds), ice skates and some trucks/ cars. Every time he sees a Santa (real, decoration, on TV.....he screams "SANTA"!!!!!! Wait till he puts Santa bringing toys together:).
We are also getting a donation to his home orphanage through our agency in his name. Will continue that and look forward to him understanding that. Hope that will be the most meaningful Christmas present.
Lexi (age NINE, unbelievably) is getting Emily (the American Girl doll), the AG bar and beam set, and a cotton candy maker. She's also getting some books and a puzzle. A dvd and locket will be in her stocking from Santa.
(We got one of those little slide-the-squares-around puzzles today and she loves it. I should have saved that for her stocking.)
Boogie boards (the lcd tablets) are big with her friends, if someone is looking for ideas...
