OK. I can't procrastinate much longer here. I need to get a list of ideas to my mom and sister so they can have time to shop and mail presents. Monday while Violet was in swim class, I asked Jessie for ideas, but she wasn't much help. I asked Violet for ideas, but most of her ideas duplicate things we already have. So I hit the catalogs and a few internet sites looking for ideas.
Ideas for Jessie
Yamaha recorder
Jump ropes (8' and 16')
Felicity's birthday dress and Patriot ??

Well, it's a start. I'll give the kids a couple more days to come up with ideas before talking it over with DH. Ideally I actually want to limit presents this year and focus on quality items that the kids will truly use instead of the quantity of ideas that have inundated our house in the past (several of which I ended up reselling on EBay). Now I just have to figure out how to tactfully explain this to our extended family.
