Thank you pugz for DS's gift! He got "That's Not My Lion", Tegu blocks, and some Ella snacks. We're going on a road trip home to PA tomorrow and driving back Sunday (~8 hours each way), so a new book, toy, and snacks are PERFECT! I'll post a pic tomorrow. Thanks again
Thank you SO MUCH spk926! You are too sweet with all of the wonderful gifts for DD!
Apparently the package arrived Saturday bc DH pulled the packages in that day and put them in the dining room. I thought it was all amazon stuff and whatnot so hadn't even looked at them. I asked him if he thought it was unusual to get a package for first name GBCN and he, of course, hadn't even noticed. I guess I'll just be glad it wasn't a box from the Nordstrom drug ring
Look at all of this! DD received a Melissa & Doug Magnetic Santa dress up doll, play dough tools and a GC for play dough, and lots of Minnie Mouse goodies. I'd be hard pressed to choose her favorite...she's pretty darn excited right now! She loves those magnetic things and is currently on a santa kick so she is playing with that while wearing her bracelets and alternately telling me "santa claus" and "minnie mouse!!" So cute! Thank you so much, you hit it out of the ballpark!
Good, so happy she likes it all. Yeah I went with a GC for playdoh instead of paying to ship it! How MM of me, right?!
I was worried it was stolen out of your mailbox or something so I'm glad it was just your H not being attentive instead.
I received the Leap Frog Poppin Play Piano. It is really cute! No picture so far, but I'm so excited for my daughter to play with it. Thanks waterchurch!
I hope she likes it! It's on my short list of toys I'm not sick of listening to. I thought that was worth something. :-)

No pictures yet, but thank you SO much @missy1! She sent my son the Bat and Wobble Penguin and a shape sorter that were both recommended on here, so I can't wait for him to play with them. They look like such fun. Thanks again!

You're welcome. I hope he likes them! I kind of wanted the bat and wobble penguin for myself! lol Sorry again for not wrapping or including a gift message. I'm new to this ss stuff and work has been crazy.
Yankees21 - thank you so much for the awesome gifts (lawn mower, stacking rings, bath toys and books)! They are all so awesome and he is going to love them! No pics yet, but I'll try to get some and post soon. Thank you again!

You're welcome! It was fun to shop for a baby so similar in age to mine. Mine already had those stacking rings and I bought the lawn mower and bath toys at the same time I bought the ones for your LO
Oh and there's no pic of the dvd because h took it and immediately put it on, lol.
Oh I'm so glad you don't already have it! It's probably more a gift for your h than your dd! The snowman is such an essential part of British Christmases, we actually watched it tonight. This sequel came out last year on the 30th anniversary.
degal99, thank you so much for A's gifts! He got Pat the Bunny good book, Melissa and Doug stackable cars, and in true MM fashion, a piggy bank! Today was the first day this week that he was interested in playing with anything since coming down with the flu. He loves the cars and the book! I will try to post a picture tomorrow.
We got the cutest stuff from brooklyn I tried to get all the toys in action, but dude doesn't sit still ever, so they are 99% blurry. A Green Toys kitchen set and a Plan Toys camera! He loves licking the camera
Thank you shelbyann for the awesome gifts! The girls loved the travel sized doodle pads and were already playing with the chatter phone! The ballet jumbo puzzle looks very fun as well!

Thank you SO much, @natariru! You did an awesome job getting over 30 books for DS. We read 3 of them before bed tonight. He also loves the scarf and hat, though I told him he has to share with me. I took the Octonauts toys out since it was right before bed and I know he would have insisted on playing with them - it's all he keeps asking Santa for. Thank you, you really went above and beyond and we so appreciate it!

You guys, @this and L are the best Secret Santas ever. This thread is wholly inadequate to say thank you!
First of all, C lost his shit over the dog card, so clearly our children are kindred spirits.
Then? There was this.
That's right, TROLLEY and our buddy DT. C is obviously thrilled. Please excuse the pantsless kid, we had a potty fakeout and were too lazy to put them back on him.
Then? THIS SHIRT. OMG I die.
I would also PIP the Mickey stickers but he's currently trying to put them on the cat.
And Trolley is going to bed with him tonight. Lol. @this
LOL! I'm so glad it was a hit and that he didn't already have it. I almost PMed pugz to ask if she knew if he had it too after I saw a picture of G with it.
And isn't the shirt amazing?! I found it on etsy, but it was too much to fit in the exchange budget so I made it (and one for DD!). And I know you said he wears a 2T, but that damn Circo brand runs sooooo small so I went up a size.
I looooove it. I was seriously just bitching to H about how Kohl's was all out of the DT toys I was going to get him! He only has the character figurines and they fit perfectly in Trolley.
I need this shirt!!! Can you send me the file, pleassseeee? I'll be your BFF.
Of course! PM me your email address and I'll forward it to you!
I have a bunch more iron on transfer sheets too. If anyone else wants one, I won't charge anything except for the shirt and shipping! (But not until after christmas because my mom and dad have the inkjet printer. Lol)
Raises hand. However I can get one of these, please. I'll pay!
We got a fantastic package from Poeticxpassion! She outdid herself with getting art and sticker supplies for Jack
She got us coloring books, crayons, paintbrushes, smock, and reusable sticker book. We love them all! Jack is already delaying bedtime because he wants to sit and color.
And I'm looking forward to bringing the coloring books and crayons and stickers with us when we travel for Christmas. Perfect way to keep him entertained! Thank you!

Yay @ icedgems! I'm so glad you got it. Canada Post kept changing the expected delivery date. As soon as I saw those jammies, I knew N had to have them!
Thanks mrsfarmer ! DS loves the lego book, lego set, and has been cracking up at the jokes. He is getting more of the arctic ones for Christmas so they will work great and he's been studying all the Star Wars guys.

Glad he likes it! I loved Star Wars and Legos growing up so I loved shopping for him!
