Rushing Life Gift Round Up

Can you believe it is already December? I swear, days just seem to fly by anymore. Christmas is literally just around the corner. I have a few more presents to buy (which is totally unlike me) but feeling sick with this baby has just stifled my enthusiasm for anything more than laying on the couch.
 
Prior to finding out about my pregnancy, I had sent Puff a list of things I wanted for Christmas. Some of them are going to be null & void now, like this leopard print belt from LOFT that I had spied over on the Mix & Match Mama...
 
 
 
And these pants from Banana Republic...
 
 
 
Not gonna really need those right about now with this already growing baby bump. So maybe there were a few things he could still get me. Like this Kendra Scott necklace that would be insane in just about any color...
 
 
 
 
Or perhaps one of these puppies...
 
 
 
Of course it wasn't until about a week ago that Puff and I had this random conversation about how we shouldn't have bought each other gifts (especially since I always know what I am getting - he's horrible with any type of surprise gifts) and that we should have just saved our money and worked on stuff we need together for the house - like a new TV, sheets, and a vacuum. Maybe we'll try that route next year.
 
It wasn't until after I had already sent all my ideas to Puff that we got the new Vineyard Vines catalog in the mail. I resisted looking at first, knowing I'm preggers and can't fit into anything. But then I found these pajamas and fell in love. I left the catalog on the table... hoping Puff takes a big ol' hint!
 
 
 
As for Bimmer for Christmas? Well, I'd like to say that I stuck with my plan of not overloading her with much (since my parents will spoil her rotten) but that didn't quite go as planned. One thing we still have yet to buy that we are contemplating?
 
 
 
Bimmer loves her some cars and she gets so excited whenever she sees a Mini Cooper. She tells us all the time that she needs a pink one. Who are we to deny a girl her dream car? Yikes... still contemplating it, but it will probably end up in our shed sooner or later. Still deciding if we're better off waiting until her birthday instead, since she would be able to actually use it more if she got it in May. Decisions, decisions.
 
So... how are you doing with your holiday shopping? Did you brave Black Friday? (I stayed in my jammies, thankyouverymuch.) Anyone else freaking out that Christmas is seriously only a few short weeks away! Where did this year go?!?!

Freaking out?? Yes, especially since we have not bought a single thing yet! In my defense we always use Steven's final bonus of the year to shop for Christmas we just got that on Friday!! But if the trend holds true I'll find myself on Target.com and ordering everything and then just pick it up at the store. I love that I don't have to brave the crowds but still get good deals!!
