What about a gift card somewhere? You may think of something later that you want/need and that may come in handy! Or donating to a charity in your name? Good luck!

I always ask for practical things..this year I aks for new pot/pans a flat iron and a wing cooker.... Do you have anything that you need? Its a good time to ask for things you otherwise wouldn't get for yourself.

Dh and I asked for gift cards to Home Depot because we have been replacing the windows in our house as we save up for them.
Is there something you and your other half need together?

Gift cards are great!

Do you like jewelry? Silver or gold? I'm a firm believer that ladies should enjoy jewelry. I much prefer gold.

Let us know what you come up with.

Congratualtions, Erin. Now I know where it went.

I am like that every year so I end up with gift certificates and gift cards and the like often at the holiday season. Perhaps someone will gift you with a massive spa day full with a mani, pedi and massages.

Happy Holidays!

I'm second and thirding the massage/spa/mani/pedi options. It is SUCH a nice treat for yourself. My hubby got me one for December 22nd, so I'd be all ready for Christmas. It was a nice surprise!

I got so tired of receiving gift cards every year. Now that I am expecting another little one, I scoured the internet for a new, creative gift. And guess what... I found it!

I found a website they make cool retro memory books. You choose pages for your baby's first year pictures and it comes to you all put together. My mother ordered one for me, and I made her show it to me. It's such a cool baby gift!!!

I loved it so much I got one for my friend who's due in February.

This is the coolest gift I have seen in a long time. I hope you enjoy it.
