I got a wallet and undies I asked for. Unfortunately, I asked for undies before I actually went through my drawer and looked at what I have. Now I have 9 new pairs to add to the RIDICULOUS number I already have. Oh well.
I love my wallet.
Tomorrow we do our Secret Santa with the ILs...excited to see what I end up with there.

I got a fit bit one, minions blue ray, and Mickey and Minnie charm for my pandora bracelet.
DH did so well this year with presents! DS got me a gift certificate for a massage and facial! DH even called to make the appointment for New Year's Eve. I am so surprised!

Coloring books and colored pencils and a makeup organizer from DH Cash from my parents Hello Fresh gift card from my sister
I still have one more from DH, but he hid it in the house and can't find it. He says it is a fairly large box, and I have no idea where it could be that we haven't already checked.

Coloring books. A bluetooth shower speaker that I really wanted.
FIL and SMIL got all of us season passes to an amusement park. I am really excited about that.
And my grandma does the best hodgepodge presents...she gets a bunch of stuff and packs it all into one bag. I got an awesome cozy sweater this year, fun socks, a candle warmer/candles, a couple books I wanted, gift card for Starbucks, coffee and tea.
A Fitbit flex, some David's Tea, a Clinique sonic brush, some bliss products, chocolate, a grey v neck sweater, pajamas, and a ticket to a wine and cheese tour I'll go on with MIL and SIL in April.
I bought myself a set of paintings to go on our mantel. I am excited about them but then I also picked them out myself They haven't come yet. DH has also promised to refinish the mantel. He's going to start over the break and get as much stripping and sanding done as he can. I'm majorly happy about that.
The MBTI thing from MIL (seriously that's all she gave me).
Rachel Ray magazine subscription and one of those lavender scented rice filled things you can microwave and put on your shoulders from the SIL that got me in DHs sibling gift exchange. And adults don't exchange gifts in my family. We save our money for good food & booze! Lol
I got a new hard drive from H, lol. Godiva "from" J. A gorgeous knit blanket from my aunt. A new beater blade for my mixer from my other aunt (has been on my wishlist for years, so I'm excited!) A Fitbit from "santa".
Getting gifts from my parents later this afternoon
ILs got me the MBMJ phone wristlet I'd put on my wish list when it was in sale at Nordstrom. Stoked about that! H actually listened to my griping about how we have 8,000 mismatched kitchen tools, and surprised me with all new ones (spoon, slotted spoon, etc). We basically just buy whatever we want for ourselves whenever, so it was nice for him to actually listen to me and respond - just backstory of why I'm happy to get spoons for Christmas.
Love of my life baby boy born 11/11. One and done not by choice; 3 years of TTC yielded 4 MMC and 2 CPs, through 4 IUIs and 2 IVFs. Focusing on making the world a better place instead...and running.
This! I don't know how I feel about it. I'm shocked. I've wanted a new wedding ring for a while but never thought I would get one. I thought maybe at our 10 year wedding anniversary in 2 years. Mine current one is small and not really my stype amymore. I need a solid band to go with it. I'm going to take my current ring and band that has small stones and make a necklace and I think a tiny pair of diamond earings for both of the girls. Hopefully I can get it sized tomorrow. It's too small
Eta dd got me an ice scream scoop and dollar tree hand soap since i like to wash my hand lol

Cash and a jcp gift card that can really be used at sephora. What momma doesn't know won't hurt her! (I had asked for sephora and was told no because I have enough stuff from there. Yes, really).

Muck boots (no snow yet though) A coffee mug And from my mom--a Kate spade purse, a coach purse and a north face jacket. She doesn't normally buy us gifts and spend that much so I am feeling really spoiled.
I'm kind of bummed DH and I didn't really exchange gifts. He wanted $ to get a buck trophy mounted and I wanted money for pilates but it doesn't feel the same as when someone thinks about what you want and gives you a gift.

With all fit bits this year we need to do another fit bit friends thread. H got me the HR charge for Chanukah.
Technically I got these before Xmas and I picked them out myself and said let's just call them Xmas gifts as we don't really exchange with each other. Got MZ Wallace Astor Tote and Hoover Carpet steam cleaner that was a lighting deal last week. It came right before we left and can't WAIT to tear that puppy open when we get home. ILS got us some gift certificate and really cute Xmas decorations for next year.

Large dutch oven, snow boots, nutribullet, cosmetic bags for my gym bag, H made me a drawer divider/organizer for my kitchen drawer that drives me crazy. Going to ILs later and my parents come Sunday.

We are on track to finish opening gifts by, oh, New Years at this rate!!! All of us slept in til 8:15am, and DH is in a grump mood, and DD is kinda semi-whiny because we had a late night. We've done stockings, taken a breakfast break, and now DD "had" to watch Charlie Brown Christmas for the 100th time this season. Sooo, we're no where near done lol
I'm a bit dejected because I worked my ass off to make Christmas Day nice, and they are kinda debbie downers at the moment.
BUT.
There is a very large Burberry bag under the tree with an equally large box inside of it for me from H.
I suspect whatever is inside will improve my spirits immeasurably…

I got the ugliest pair of slippers you have ever seen (Thanks Shark tank for their sales pitch to my DH), a couple of books, a "fancy" t-shirt, and the chocolate of the month club. Kids made Christmas Ornaments for me. My mom gave me cold, hard cash, which makes up for the talking Globe she got the kids, which is cute, but big and talks.

Only DH and I have exchanged and we decided to just do stockings this year. He did excellent, though. I got a starbucks and Amazon gift card, my favorite candies and two books. One was a sweet little light read and the other: Toddlers are Assholes
Kate Spade wallet, GCs for running shoes and old navy/gap/athleta, earrings, and socks from my parents.
A shirt from Gap and a GC from my sister.
KS bag from FIL (well, I bought it with the money he gave me)
Candle and lip balm set from SIL
And headphones and running gloves from J. Who meant to get me Bluetooth headphones, and these are nice but not Bluetooth so I will probably exchange them (since I have decent nonbluetooth headphones already). And the gloves are XS, which my hands are definitely not...so those will be getting exchanged too Considering he came up with these on his own though, I'm thrilled!

A really really soft scarf. Really soft. Soooo soft.
A family tree necklace with everyone's birth stone.
My grandmother made me a wreath from some of the fake flowers we had at our wedding. Apparently she's been planning to do this every year the last 8yrs haha. It's really nice.
Can't remember anything else. Im in a bit of a daze.
H got me a Pandora bracelet and two charms, and he was so proud that he'd remembered I'd asked for one a long time ago. Only I am sure I never have! Luckily it worked out because I like the charms he bought (books and a heart) and I think it will look pretty with just a few charms on it. He also got me Marc Jacobs perfume, new bowls I've been wanting from Crate & Barrel and two pretty necklaces. ILs got me a gift card to B&N, a snowman LED figurine, a travel jewelry bag, a pair of earrings, and a necklace. I still have to open my parents' gifts.

Some slippers and Bluetooth speaker for the kitchen from DH, restaurant gift card from the in laws. I got some festive leggings, the Mariah Carey and Martina McBride Christmas cds, a headband and some bookends from the SILs.
We see my mom and that side of the family tomorrow, don't know when we're seeing my dad. So more to come!
Forgot to add that I got the Nutcracker ballet dvd, Holiday Inn and the Sims 4 in my stocking.
