Default any one start shopping yet?

Am i crazy? Its been on my mind but i haven't started any lists or shopping yet...just mental lists!

I like to start early because you can catch stuff on clearance or on sale also having 3 kids its hard to get out to the mall or stores and if i can spread the shopping time out over a few months its much less stressful.

The only thing i do do closer to christmas is just walk thru the mall and smell the roaster almonds kiosk and enjoy the decorations and music!
I feel like a christmas NUT for thinking about it already. Any body else crazy like me?

I have started making photo story books for grandparents and great grandparents. Then when it is closer to Christmas I can have them printed. Each month I add a couple pages. Other than that I haven't done anythng else.

I started just after Christmas 2007. I have most of the kids already taken care of. Still have all the adults to shop for and probably won't be done with them until the week of Christmas. I am odd like that.

Kayds is 10/30 and Jae is 11/11...then mine hehe....then my dads....xmas seems WAY far away!!!! But i do REALLY need to start

I chanced upon some In The Night Garden PJs for the girls in sizes bigger than they are so I decided that they should be Christmas gifts. It just happened that way... it wasn't that I specifically went out for them... yet.
