Don't worry - I already have quite a few presents bought and wrapped.
In fact all of DD's presents (apart from maybe a few stocking fillers if we see something nice) are bought, and I'm waiting on a few of DH's presents that I've ordered to be delivered.
I don't have much more to get really, just have to think of something nice to get DH that he hasn't asked for!
Oh and shop for the rest of our family's which will be fun! In fact this year I'm leaving it up to DH as my choices last year were obviously not good enough (none of them are anywhere to be seen when you go round their houses!!)

I don't feel so bad now then 
I've got nearly everything, just need to get for hubby, a few more bits for Jamie and then it's just wine and chocs for a few people.
I always worry about what I buy for hubby's family in case they don't like what I buy

I'm doing christmas shopping on line now!!
Can't believe there is so little time left, my girls want heelies and the adults in my family know they won't be getting a lot as we are saving for baby

Nicola g said:Ive not even thought about it
Grr tho, we told MIL we are only buying for the children of the family this yr as we have bubba on the way and you should have seen her sour face!!
Nice one tho for being orginised.
We had a similar situation this year as we have had to cut back a bit due to baby and several people weren't suited
Gem, I got my cards today as well
Hubby is out tomorrow night so am gonna sit and write them - organisation is the key

We haven't done anything yet! Got James birthday presents to buy too Haven't a clue what to buy James, everytime we ask what he'd like he changes his mind. The only thing the remains constant is his request for a Nintendo DS, but don't really want to buy him one of those as he spends too much time on the PS3 as it is!
I have been telling OH that there's not much time left and we really should start buying some pressies but he's not bothered yet.
We normally start panic buying mid December

I'm starting at the Trafford Centre tomorrow night. No idea where anything's going to go because everywhere is in a right tip trying to "tidy up" the spare room for a nursery....
I like all this talk about not buying much though. I've been waiting for my family to suggest it to me but all I'm getting is hints for what they want! Worse still is that I've got 4 30th's coming up and another 3 30th's (including mine) and 3 x parents 60th's next year. As if next year wasn't going to be expensive enough

still not bought any xmas pressies. Not got any pressies for James' bday on 21st Dec either. Haven't a clue what to get him, he still says he wants a nintendo ds. We've got a ps3 already so don't need any more consoles

And a fourth one! I did all mine last weekend from Next Directory online, it is well worth the delivery fee not to have to go to town, esp in a months time when i expect to be the size of a house!!!
