Holiday Gift Guides: Last Minute

You know who you are, those people that wait until the last possible second to buy gifts for all your peeps. I’ve never been this person, but I would imagine if I was, that it would be easiest to buy everything from one store…you know, one stop shop, and my shop of choice: Target!

  1. Canon SD1300 Digital Camera
  2. Boston Traveler Croc Print Leather Checkbook Wallet
  3. Digital Décor 7″ LCD Slim Digital Photo Frame
  4. Global Girlfriend Darling Dots Scarf

Comfy Christmas Clothes

I have picked out my outfit for Christmas day and it’s definitely on the comfy side. Dressy where it counts but able to eat multiple meals throughout the day and still recover comfortably.

  1. Mossimo Layering Pullover, Target
  2. Multi Colored Stone Stretch Bracelet, Charlotte Russe
  3. Corral Python Cross Boots, Langston’s
  4. Stretch Leggings, Old Navy

What do you wear for your Christmas festivities? Are you uncomfortable all day and dressed up or comfy yet fashionable?

Girly Stocking Stuffers

I definitely wouldn’t mind any of these showing up in my stocking this year!!

  1. Pinwheel Hairpins, It’s Beaded Bliss Etsy Shop-I’ve been loving on hairpins lately and I’m loving on these turquoise ones.
  2. Ped Egg, Amazon-I’ve always wanted to try this thing!!
  3. Japanese Decoration Tape, Uncommon Goods-I think this would be super cute to have when you wrap something in just brown kraft paper.
  4. Leather Keyring, Exposures-I need a new key ring and what better than to carry around a pic of the kiddo.
  5. OPI Cuticle Oil to Go, Amazon-I always leave cuticle oil in my car so I can do a mini mani at a stop light.  This would make things super easy.
  6. Round Pill Box, Target-I need a pill box to keep vitamins and tylenol in my purse.
  7. Shea Butter Lip Balm Stick, L ‘Occitane-my all time favorite lip balm.
  8. Oxo Good Grips Travel Mug, Amazon-the most amazing travel mug ever.  Never leaks, ever.  My husband generally fight over who uses this mug because we only have one.

Christmas Wishlist: Sarah Edition

I think the rule should be…if you’re carrying a baby around in your stomach, you should get everything on your list…right!?!?!?!

  1. Target, Simply Shabby Chic® Blue Linen Duvet Set: My house if over run with red…including my 2 guest rooms…I think this would tone down my fave color and add a lot of warmth.

  5. Amazon, Fiesta Utensil Crock: You know, to also break up the oh so much red in my house…
  6. Endless.com, Tamarac Pile-lined Moccasin: These are for my soon to come swollen ankles…
  7. The Container Store, Double Acrylic Shelves: I would actually use this as a small end table in my nursery…so it’s not “technically” for me.
  8. Sur la Table, Cuisinart Mini Food Processor: I’m actually considering making my own baby food and I hear a food processor is a must…so again, “technically” not for me.

Holiday Gift Guides: Infants

Those wee little ones can sometimes be the hardest to buy for. I mean, they don’t play with toys and they don’t show much interest in anything besides sleeping, eating and pooping. But it is their first Christmas and by all means we need to have some presents under our tree for the little tyke.  Here are some great ideas for the newbies.

  1. Babies R Us, Mute Button– Every mommy and daddy needs a mute button every now and then and even if they are not a fan of the paci it is sure to get a good laugh.
  2. Etsy, My First Christmas Onesie– Doesn’t every baby need a My First Christmas outfit?? I think so.
  3. Etsy, Personalized Growth Chart– This is perfect for mommy and daddy to start to track the baby’s growth and since it can be used for a number of years to come.. it’s the gift that keeps on giving!
  4. Target, Sleep Sack– Every kiddo is going to wiggle their way out of a swaddle at some point and that point is now in my house. These wearable blankets or sleep sacks are sure to keep the baby toasty in the wintery months. It’s a snuggie for the bambinos!
  5. Etsy, That’s How I Roll Onesie–  You can never go wrong with the humorous onesie for a baby gift, this is one of my personal favs
