I'm blessed to be so spoiled...

You know how some years are better than others when it comes to gifts? Well usually my parents are 100% on track with my gifts and my list. Even the stuff not on my list, my mom buys for me.  I really appreciate what she does and the thought she puts into things.  So this year - I knew things would be tight because of my sisters upcoming wedding and me hoping to have a baby - my parents have been saving money, as are we.

Well I get to Christmas eve and it looks like Christmas exploded. Every single gift under the tree was for me or my husband!


I couldn't believe it.  I didn't spend nearly that much money on my family and I felt horrible.  To be honest - I expected a Kindle 3 (because that was the one thing on my list I knew she'd get me, and usually cut it off after that). But she kept going.

Here's me loving my Kindle3:


So somewhere over the past three days of gift giving I've recieved: Kindle3 and case, clothes, perfume, jewelry (that amazingly, my dad picked out a necklace and it's nice!), board games, pandora beads for my bracelet (which actually I needed to get a new bracelet as the old one wasn't going to cut it), a fitbit (I will elaborate on later, I love this thing) and some odds and ends.  I know I'm missing stuff,  but I can't remember right now.

My kids, err, cats, even made out with a blanket just for them from grandma and grandpa!

I hope you guys have an awesome day and I will be blabbering on about my amazing fitbit later!
And I'll leave you with our newest family member: Waddles.
