You can buy a ton of cheaper gifts and they'll love them..anything that makes noise and lights up! Now that they're 11 and 9, they want high dollar items and lots of 'em.
lol

I am very strict about the christmas/birthday thing! I want to make a big difference between the two and I don't want to cut back on her birthday to save for christmas. I think what we might do, is put away some money at the beginning of the year ready for her birthday. I always said "I never want a christmas baby" for that exact reason! then my older brother topped it off by saying "oh good, I can get her one present instead of two" grrr!!
