now that its our second christmas as a married couple im drawling blanks on ideas.

last year we gave a album full of wedding photos but that doesnt work for this year. 

so what are you ladies getting the in-laws for christmas

My in-laws are big on Christmas shopping wish lists...so we just follow those. No thought. Just following orders. We got my MIL a little tea set and his dad asked for a new dog leash (for the dog - not him).

We are thinking of getting them albums this year. FIL a video games (apparently he still loves them) and MIL .....I just dont know. I got her a nice PJ and Robe set last year. But this year - I just dont know.

(for the dog - not him). Uh huh.... Sure.

Why don't you ask your in-laws? We'll probably do an Amazon gift card for MIL since she's a big reader and just bought a kindle. And for FIL, he likes to cook so we usually do something with that. Or coffee syrup. I could buy him that for every gift giving occasion and he'd love it. But they're more practical people so we try to follow that rule.

I think Ill do that. But MIL is in a rut and she'll probably say "oh nothing". She doesnt really do anything - shes literally home everyday and only leaves to take FIL to his DOCs appt.

::SIGH:: Time is running out, 18 more days!

@carolina - lol....I'm not sure how kinky a 20 ft retractable leash would be..buut..I'd rather not think about it mmkay! lol

@martini - how about some nice and simple earrings or a necklace? I figure you can't really go wrong with jewelry....you could probably find a nice necklace on Etsy :)

ugh , me- hey how are you, what are you up to, so i was just wondering if there is anything you would like for christmas, 

her- hey, great , oh dont by me anything you dont need to do that, 

ugh 

i guess i'll get her a gc for a manicure and some hand lotion , meh

Martini- what about offering to help her with daily chores and getting her a gift card for something out of the house?

nicole- it's just a suggestion. FIL and MIL usually don't give anything specific unless we ask FIL what MIL wants and vice versa. But we just know their interests, any collections they do, etc.
