Olivia
Hello People,
Christmas is on it's way, and I'm getting into the spirit a bit early...
I need to get everyone gifts, of course, but I don't know what, and no one will give me a straight answer.
Could you guess what they would want based on these descriptions, please?
Brother: 9 years old, loves everything technological, bought his own ipad, flatscreen tv, google tv, ipod, psvita, etc...
Stepmother-33, loves gardening and movies
Dad-44, loves everything technological, movies, and cooking. I was thinking of getting him slippers, but he just got a pair...
Mom-46, realtor, always grumpy, loves reading the news...
Cousin-boy, 14, loves video games, tennis, biking, and technology...
Cousin-boy, 14 (they're twins), loves video games, tennis, biking, and a spy tv show...(it's called Nikita, if you know what that is.)
Aunt-49, loves dogs, jewlery making, gardening...
Uncle, 50 (i think), loves sports and cooking...
Aunt, 48, editor for the denver post, loves long walks, and her dogs
Uncle, 50 (i think), loves biking, handyman work, works as an english teacher at a highhschool...
Grandma, 87, pack rat. loves dogs...
Grandpa, 85, recently diagnosed with stage 4 prostate cancer, (this is very likely my last christmas :-( with him ever), he loves to do things. literally, he walks everywhere, built his own boat, put a solar roof on his house, etc...I want to get him something amazing, but i don't have any ideas...a simple idea could help me come up with something.
Grandma, 79, lives in portugal, makes her own jam, very good at bruising herself accidentally, has tons of fruit bushes...
Me- I don't really know what I want, but an idea for the list would be great. I'm 14, Have 4 dogs, love art, dance, and music, love to read (harry potter is my FAVORITE!!), i'm going to be an architect and/or lawyer when I grow up and want to go to harvard...
An idea or two for each person would be awesome!! I'll answer your questions if you link to them :-)
please give serious and thought out answers.
Thank You!!!!
<3,
OB

here are some ideas:
step mother-33:
High quality garden tools can make excellent garden gift ideas, such as small shovels or trowels.
Decorations for the garden are great gift ideas. Gnomes, animals, or other small ceramic sculptures are generally a good choice.
Solar lights are also great garden gift ideas. These can work well in most gardens because they do not require electricity to work.

BUYING ADVICE
Newborn necessities
Here's a checklist of what you should have on hand before your baby arrives.
Tooling around
_____Car seat.
_____Stroller.
Beds and linens
_____Crib.
_____Crib mattress.
_____Bassinet/cradle (if you don't want to put your baby in a crib right away).
_____Two to three fitted crib sheets.
_____Four or more waffle-weave cotton receiving blankets for swaddling baby
_____Two mattress pads.
_____One to two waterproof liners (for crib or bassinet).
Diaper duty
_____Diapers. Disposables: One 40-count package of newborn (birth weight under 8 pounds) or of
size 1 (birth weight over 8 pounds). Cloth: Two to three dozen, plus six to 10 snap-on, waterproof

_____Four to six one-piece undershirts that snap around the crotch.
_____A small baby cap (although the hospital will probably give you one).
_____Six pairs socks/booties.
_____Two to three soft, comfortable daytime outfits. Get only a few items in newborn size. Then, go for
clothing in the 6-month size--your baby will grow into it quickly. But don't buy baby sleepwear
that's too big--it's a safety hazard.

Bathing/Grooming

_____Three soft hooded towels.
_____Two packs of baby washcloths.

_____Pair of blunt-tip scissors or baby-sized nail clippers.

Keeping baby happy
_____Pacifiers.
Extras: Nice but optional
_____Baby monitor.
_____Changing table.
_____A rocker or glider.
_____Sling or strap-on soft carrier.
_____Boppy, a doughnut-shape pillow designed to make holding baby during breastfeeding or
bottlefeeding easier.
