What's on your wish list this season? What are you planning on getting the LOs in your life?

I’m after either a Fitbit versa or non-cell Apple Watch.
The boys are getting books, pjs, and the LEGO duplo train

I never know what I want for Christmas. I'll definitely have to figure it out before whichever day it is that MH gets an extra discount at his work since that's when he usually does his shopping.
DS is probably getting some more board games now that he's getting more interested in them. Probably some Legos too and a remote control BB8 I spotted in Target's Black Friday ad. There's no way in hell I'm going to a store on that day, but if I can get the same deal online, I'm in.

Most of what I'd like right now is skincare related: treatments, masks, bath bombs. I also want some small gold hoops for everyday wear.
SD is getting self care stuff also. A Foreo, some makeup, hair products, masks in her stocking, along with a few spirit shirts for her new school.
DS is getting a tool set and ride-on toy from us. I'm thinking bath crayons and a book for his stocking. Going minimal on him since I know he'll be spoiled rotten by everyone else.

Christmas is going to be small all around since we're going to Universal in February.
I'd like an Apple Watch but see above. Oh well.
Boys are getting more play food, train supplies, and maybe a bike with training wheels for DS1. I think I may also get them another indoor play tent since they loved the first one so much.

Series 3 is going on sale if you’ll take an older model. I think I’ve decided on the Fitbit over apple, though

I’m not sure what’s on my list. Maybe a new bag that’s not a diaper bag, but I don’t do fancy bags.
I’m planning on getting a play kitchen for J. And maybe a tea set. I would also like to make a play tent for him but that may have to wait for his birthday.

Amazon sent out their version of the toys r us toy book. In it is a new Lego set of Darth Vader's castle. I have never wanted something so much in a long time. It's a lot of money but mh has connections. So I'm going to get Legos this year because I'm still 10.
DD is getting the kid craft metropolis train set from santa and it will replace our coffee table for a while. I finally got what she wanted out of her tonight which is trains and dress up toys. I'm thinking a doctor set. This is much better than her earlier answer of "red with blue in it, purple not pink."... K that's really helpful kid.
Oh and I'm also getting her a trampoline because omg all winter inside.

@sheliathetank as an FYI, we have a table of that size by them (maybe slightly larger). I’ll warn you- if her love of trains develops and stays, it’ll become too small in a heartbeat. It also comes with a lot of frilly and useless pieces
By the time he hit 3, DS1 wanted more elaborate set ups and the table is too small to do what he wants. He got it right before he turned 2

I don't know if we have room for anything larger.

I don't know if we have room for anything larger. The length is good. It’s the width that’s the issue. We’re upgrading to the PBK activity table solely because it’s wider (Christmas gift, plus figure it will be useful once the love of trains subside). He likes to fit curves and tunnels, and neither H and I are particularly craftful at making it fit on the smaller width

If anything we can sell this one down the road and replace it next year. This is her first real train toy.

I’m with gingy and also wanting skincare stuff for myself this Christmas. I am down to my last 6 sheet masks, and I’ve been so good about not buying any replacements, because I know H is getting me some. For the kids - we are getting a canvas teepee with a nice padded cushion/mattress to go inside of it. There is a local business that makes really nice ones that are just like the pottery barn kids ones - I’m super excited for that to be a place for DS1 to read and play for years to come. For DS2, we’re getting him a ball pit. He loves trying to burrow in things, so I think this will be a big hit. I’m also getting crocs and pjs for both kids. Probably some new clothes as well when I shop at the gap for Black Friday deals.

If you are looking for a recommendation on the tent - we have a play tent for DS1 that has held up really well the past 2 years and packs up into a super small pouch. www.amazon.com/Pacific-Play-Tents-Safari-Outdoor/dp/B00083DD4O
