Christmas shopping??




Ok so I know it seems like it is so early but it really isnt. Can you beleive Thanksgiving is in about a week and a half?? Oh Em Gee!! It totally snuck up on me. And I am deffinitely not ready for this snow we are getting. Well whether we like it or not, it's here. The holiday season. Every year I have a bunch of people ask me what Grant wants for Christmas. He has a lot of aunts and uncles and people who insist on spoiling him. Up until recently he was the only grandchild and nephew on my side and Jared's side of the family. Thank goodness he finally has a little cousin! YAY!
Well if I had things my way, I would love it if people just gave a small amount of money that we could put in his savings account. Beleive it or not, he loves money and he is very good about putting it in the bank, we have tought him that it is neat to put it in the bank and save it for when he is ready to go to college! Smart boy!
But I realise that not everyone enjoys giving money, because it is a little boring. I thought that I would give everyone some ideas of things that Grant would love for Christmas. Please dont think that I am suggesting anything by this. I just know that Jared and I both have family who read my blog and might benefit from these ideas.

* He wears a size 5-6 in clothes and a 12 in shoes
* He is really getting into reading and he loves books. Jared bought him a chapter book at the book fair and he loves it. We read a couple chapters a night and he is becoming an amazing reader, so books would be awesome.
* When Grant was a baby, I started a collection of Disney movies for him, so he always loves getting a new Disney movie (the Disney Classics)
* He is so into sports it is rediculous. He loves anything that has to do with sports and his favorite teams are the Utah Jazz, the Washington Readskins, and of course the Utah Utes!
* He is VERY artistic. He loves to color, draw, paint, and scrapbook.
* He loves anything that has to do with fire fighters, fire trucks, fire dogs (dalmations)
Hopefully that gives some of you some ideas.

I think for your sake, you should add on his scrapbooking that he wants a Gypsy to go along with his cricket. You could tell him it's the new gameboy!
