    yeah i'm thinking we need to re-priorities our presents at the very least. It's just i end up feeling guilty if we can't give someone a present specially if they got us something, so i'm thinking the whole only us thing and don't get us anything thing might be the only way.
    We have my mum, uncle and grandma to buy for on my side, then there's MIL, the 7 niece's & nephew's and we pick a couple's name out of a hat for the SIL/BILs on DH's side, and two close friends i feel guilty about getting something for coz they always get us something.
    That ends up being 7 presents for Adults and 7 for the kids (or bigger shared presents for them) Either way it's too much AND then to buy for our 2 boys and each other, and i'm sick of us missing out. Specially coz for our boys i'd rather be able to buy better more expensive gifts because we have so many cheaper toys and stuff already and being boys all the cooler more action type toys are also more costly.
    Bah, anyways... DH is working his butt off this week at work so next fortnight we'll have a nice amount of cash to catch up on our bills that we're not paying this fortnight hehe.

    Ooh, DH just walked in the door, better go so we can go out.

    Take care guys

    edit: Oh yeah.. forgot to mention that there are also 2 niece's who have birthdays a week before christmas, my uncle's is on Jan 4th and my mum's is on Jan 29th, and then my boys are both in Feb 12th and 22nd and this baby's gonna be close to that too, he's due 2nd March, more presents to buy LOL
