anyone else have a lot of things besides Christmas this month to buy for??

I feel like Im gonna go broke and havent figured out how to manage it.

I have 2 baby showers a week before Christmas....DH's 30th b-day on the 18th, a close friends birthday next week. My Moms birthday, my Dads birthday and My MIL's birthday.

I feel like someones gonna end up getting gipped of a nice gift and I feel bad, but I just cant afford it.

Usually I give myself $100 towards a baby shower...theres no way I can do that for both of them this month , and with 5 major b-days too

Christmas: we have 3 nephews, 1 niece, my in lawas are SO hard to shop for, 2 step brothers who are label whores, my sister who I try to go all out for because I love and miss her so, and this year...

our baby is due right afterwards....so all that baby stuff!

Oh...and then it's FIL bday in Jan and my real mother.

Yes December is a nightmare month for us

No less than three nephews w/Dec. birthdays, DH and I both are December babies, at least 3 good friends that I can think of off the top of my head.. PLUS all the GTGs and parties and such that always require putting in WAY more money than you originally intended

THANK goodness no weddings or showers this month, I think I'd shoot myself Chat Icon

We had two things. My dads birthday which we are getting him a digital camera and a friends sons 1st birthday. It could have been worse but it is a bit tough with the holidays coming up.
