I'm trying to set the tone of keeping Christmas somewhat minimal, because my kids already have so much.

I need to dig through my gift stash, but this is what I can remember... I don't plan on buying anything else.

DD (6 months)

Fisher-Price classic infant trio gift set (stacking rings, blocks with a bucket, telephone she can pull). I also got Munchkin spoons and Nuby teething bibs to put in her stocking. 

MH said he wants to buy her some clothes or toys as well. And we ordered her a Christmas ornament, since MH's late parents always bought one for him every year and he wants to continue the tradition.

That's is. She's too young to know what's going on, I'm sure our families will spoil her, and she's already got tons of books and toys from the baby shower that we haven't even opened for her yet, so we didn't want to go overboard this year. My family asked for a list so I told them diapers (lol), 9-month clothes, PJs that zip, and the clips to hold her pacifier in place. One friend said she bought DD some kind of tunnel she can crawl through.

We are also buying for friends' kids and some young cousins, ranging from age 2-5. They are all getting PJs or an outfit, plus books or small toys.
