Anyone else feeling like they are going overboard for Christmas?!

Question

The kiddos are at this age where a year means so much growth! I don’t typically buy a lot of toys except for holidays and her birthday (maybe just a puzzle, book or small item here and there) so I feel like I’m probably starting to look a lot like one of those moms who spoil their child 😅. 
Please tell me I’m not alone?!
Can we start a support group?! 🤣

Answer

I told myself he’s so young, my family is going to buy him so much. Yet somehow I keep buying my son stuff 🤦🏼‍♀️

Answer

So my in laws get my daughter tons of stuff and since she won’t understand Christmas this year anyway we took the money we would have spent on her and ourselves and adopted a child in need for Christmas and got them a good car seat, toys, and diapers. My daughter has more than enough thankfully.

Answer

Yes, after everything I buy I'm like mmm this will be the last thing but then I see something she'd love our get exited over😭. So far I've gotten her some interactive books, a tea set, two cabbage patches, a skating Minnie mouse, a learning picnic basket, and a rocking horse. You don't think it's a lot until you also have to take into account what her both sets of grandparents are about to get her and her dad since we aren't together. Yea I think I need to be done😂.

Answer

We rarely buy her things throughout the year aside for clothes, so we’re using Christmas to replenish all the toys she’s outgrown. A scoot trike and play kitchen are the big purchases and then lots of books and some musical instruments. We’ll scale back when she’s a little older and not outgrowing things so quickly.

Answer

I've been trying to cut back on things. She has so much freaking stuff. And my youngest will be 16 months and we're bad at getting stuff for her throughout the year so she also has a lot. I'm getting her a toy microphone and some mess free art stuff and my oldest is just getting a ukelele, clothes, and some books.
