Only 39 More Shopping Days!
Day Fifteen: I am damn near done with my Christmas shopping. Yeah, you heard right. Ok, so I still have all of the teachers still to buy for, but the kids- my own and my niece and nephew- are done. Let's be real, folks, they are the ones I sweat every year anyway! I know there are folks out there who eyeball the paper, the ads, the TV looking for the sweet deal. They are the same ones who balk at my 4:30 am gym time ("My word! That's too early to get up for ANYTHING! However do you manage?!") but who will be ON LINE in front of (insert store name here) at 2 am on Black Friday, ready to save $10. Courtesy of mailing lists, promo codes, retailmenot.com, and timing, I have already saved more than ever and have gotten some real winners this year. So thank you to my favorite stores for making this year's e-shopping extravaganza nearly painless and absolutely successful!

Hey Danielle! I am very impressed!! I have been picking things up here and there, but I'm finding as my girls get older it's getting harder and harder to pick out gifts for them. So - what did you get for Eibhlin? I am always curious about what others get their daughters for Christmas.
Love your blog, BTW. :)
Well, hi! Don't be too impressed- my stars were aligned this year, that's all. My stars and my inbox coupons, anyway. Ha! Honestly, it's been easier for us as the kids have gotten older because their lists are shorter :-). As for Eibhlin...while she is getting some "girlie" stuff (mainly from her grandparents), she is getting from us some books, clothes, games for her Didj, and a Kindle Fire (seems a bit much, but Amazon takes Discover Cashback- woohoo!). By the way, your girls are gorgeous...
And I am glad you are enjoying the blog; it's a ton of fun to write!
