Default Christmas gifts

I really like that idea Missy. Ordinarily I am on board for the homemade craft
projects and toys. The kids love them. But, I am strapped for ideas on
Christmas gifts this year and that seems to be something that she really wants.
Usually I would just buy the generic version that Walmart carries for about 10
dollars. But on birthdays and Christmas I like to try and accommodate a few of
the special requests. I think if she ended up with a cash register other than
the Barbie one there would be a hint of disappointment. What I may do is just
go with something else altogether like the Mommys Little Patient doll and come
up with a different cash register sometime after Christmas.

Gotcha'...and I totally understand I'm a personal fan of all things Barbie,
too!What I may do is just
go with something else altogether like the Mommys Little Patient doll


Santa has gotten the girls a medical stand alone unit for Christmas since
playing doctor is also something they absolutely love. I think this is a great
idea you have. I'm actually going to check into it, too. It's something I
could tuck away for their birthday...thanks for the idea

Yep...we're still waiting on it to arrive. Thanks for telling me though! I
just left a space for it and another one I'm waiting to download.

Thanks for the sweet comments...that's always so kind of people to do when I
know you're busy.

The Caucasian ones were sold out everywhere I checked around here and
everywhere on-line except for E-bay where some genius had picked up a few he
could get twice the value for when desperate parents came searching. With
shipping, I ended up paying $40 each!! (They retail for around $20.) So, yes,
I am a sucker-- but I got a huge guilt trip to talk me into it. Last Christmas
Ashlyn kept asking for a "baby patient." The only thing I could figure out was
this set of dolls called the "Too Cute Twins" (which really aren't as cute as
they are highly annoying and they got played with like, twice.) Anyway, she
told me a week or so ago that she couldn't wait to go see Santa and I said,
"Are you anxious to tell him what you want for Christmas?" To which she
replied, "No, I want to tell him he got me the wrong doll last year-- I wanted
Mommy's Little Patient!" This doll did not exist last year that I know of-- at
least I hadn't seen it anywhere. So hopefully this year Santa can redeem
himself. I know I sound like a major idiot paying this much for these dolls,
but the girls grandparents go so very overboard on Christmas that I like for
the couple of things that I get them to be something they really wanted and
really asked for.

Alexis has said the same thing, every time she sees the commercial! I am sure
it doesn't help that the darn commercial comes on about 5 times in between

Dora
and Blues Clues. Do you mind if I asked where you found it and how much they
were?

Jordan and Madison have been asking for the "My Little Baby" dolls since that
commercial's been playing for the past 6 months or so. I wasn't going to get
them because I had already bought enough presents for them for Christmas *and*
their birthday. Then I found out that one of the babies is named Jordan and
one is named Madison, so of course I *had* to have them. Then I ran into a
prob. when I searched online for an hour and all the "Madison" ones were sold
out. Finally found a site that had them in stock. So I'm feeling like an
idiot for being sucked into buying more than I planned......buyer's remorse, ya
gotta love it.
