Owen we could have stopped at the stocking (there were only matchbox cars in there). He was content with just playing with those. We had to talk him to opening his other gifts.Layne & Kelliehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08289153331481872796noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8441507730844148736.post-70256237156014823542008-01-03T15:36:00.000-08:002008-01-03T15:36:00.000-08:00Renee, We did have exactly the same reaction when ...Renee, We did have exactly the same reaction when we looked at all the stuff Christmas Eve. I thought about saving stuff for later and couldn't bring myself to do it. We have dang lucky kids, but as you said next year will be a different story.Juleshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00548125199690094533noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8441507730844148736.post-27404106574604929892008-01-02T23:12:00.000-08:002008-01-02T23:12:00.000-08:00I love your family picture.

Not that she got anything real pricey, but she just got a TON of crap (that she absolutely loves)! We drove up to Utah for Christmas with a car full of gifts for our family as well as for Cecily on Christmas morning. I thought we'd be totally fine coming home, since we were getting rid of so much of the stuff that was for other people. Well, Grandma Shonnie went overboard again! I think she gave my daughter EVERY Disney Princess thing ever made! We could barely breathe on the car ride back to NM! How do you tactfully tell your mother-in-law to stop spoiling your kid? By the way, I love all of your pictures!!!Jen Tornowhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05764427625761670133noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8441507730844148736.post-46097541435728237032007-12-29T21:04:00.000-08:002007-12-29T21:04:00.000-08:00LOVE the family picture, your family is beautiful!...LOVE the family picture, your family is beautiful!(and you look amazing) Yes, I also start early only to over-do it every year. I always feel my kids are spoiled, but I guess as long as it's not everyday it won't ruin them right? I like lots of little gifts, I just can't get enough of their faces when they open something! Every year I think,"I could have combined all those little gifts and given one nice gift", but that would make for a really short morning. I love that a $1 necklace means as much as a $20 one would.Sherianhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17740064394679847750noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8441507730844148736.post-42452111376055619492007-12-29T15:03:00.000-08:002007-12-29T15:03:00.000-08:00My kids were spoiled this year too!

I just kept thinking "This is too much stuff!" and wondering where we were going to put it all!

Where is Kylee's cute sweater from? yes, I think the kids are super spoiled at Christmas especially when you add in all the gifts from everybody else. But, it only happens once a year, and I love how fun it is!brittanyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06856125251682676811noreply@blogger.com
