Which is odd, seeing as I have 2 daughters, 22 and 20, that aren't getting Santa Claus for the first time ever this year. I find myself wanting to spend money on the baby more than my daughters, who would know the difference!! It's just more fun when they are little!!

But with my budget this year, anything will be an extravagance. I am seriously nervous about gift giving, I have always went way overboard, but this year it's just not even possible. Anyone else in my boat???
I am not buying anything this year besides the dress up boxes for my 2 nieces. All other people are getting home made ornaments and cookies. I have noticed this is the first year I am really sticking to it and it feels so good not to have to go out and purchase!!
