Thinking about Christmas already

We are thinking about Christmas now due to the fact that we have two children and partially because we got the Wish List for both of them to fill out and return to our agency before the end of the month. We write down 3-4 items that total to $50 or less. I hate writing down 5-6 little things so I put down 1-2 big gifts that both of them will enjoy. Last year, Cody received a Laugh and Learn Learning Table that he loves to play with now. PARACHUTE (Child's advocacy program) gave Cody 7 really nice Christmas gifts last year. So, we are probably looking at a living room FULL of just toys. We are thinking about buying them 2 big gifts and then stockings (with little things) from Santa since they will get presents from the agency and from family. Cody's birthday is less than a month after Christmas so I don't want to overload him with so many presents. We are thinking about purchasing a Radio Flyer with wooden trim wagon for his second birthday. Over the summer while I was working at school, I took him for a ride in one of the wagons we had at school and he LOVED it! Christmas and birthdays are sooo wonderful when you have small children! I love being a Mommy!
