Tis the season for giving! I cannot believe we are just three short weeks away from Christmas! I feel like the holiday season has gone by so fast but I am doing by best to embrace every moment. In an attempt to help you with your holiday shopping, I have rounded up some gift ideas here to hopefully make is a tad easier. If you have been following on Instagram, then you know I also have a hi-light going over there where I am going to continually add items that I think would make great gifts. For now though, here are some general ideas for the ladies in your life, the men, your parents/in-laws and any babies out there!
Whether you are shopping for your bestie, your sister, sister-in-law or any other ladies in your life, this round up if perfect for all the babes out there. When shopping for my gals, I like to start with a theme. Are they big into fitness? Do they love to host events? Are they a homebody? You know, categorize them. From there you can come up with the perfect little something and make their holiday merry and bright! Below are some more items I am loving for all of the babes in your life so click through and happy shopping!
Now for the boys. If the men in your life are anything like mine, then they are extremely difficult to shop for. I get it. So similar to how I do my gal pals, I like to start with a theme. From there, if it’s for Jon Luke, I have to see what he already has related to said theme. I just don’t like to duplicate. Once I have done this, it allows me to really narrow down my options which makes things way easier!
This is a new category for me this year but…the baby! My family has been asking me what to get Miles and it has been difficult for me. Really, he doesn’t NEED a ton just because he is still in that in-between stage where he can only do so much. I have been really big into the developmental toys right now because he is starting to sit on his own. This are helpful to teach him colors/numbers/shapes while we have tummy time! Also, as he is getting bigger, I am realizing that I am not as strong as I thought I was. To have even a few minutes to put him down is SO helpful so a good jumper, or toy that he can engage with is helpful to have! Finally, footie pajamas. While we are home, he pretty much lives in soft pajamas right now. That is what he sleeps in, plays in, all the things…so the more the merrier!
Finally…the parents! Now, this could be your parents, or your in-laws because I get it…parents are hard to shop for. I have to say that my go-to gift for parents are pictures. Anytime JL and I took new pictures, I always planned to frame one and give it to each of our parents. Now with Miles, I am giving them all pictures of him! But other than that, classic items are good for parents in my opinion. I quality perfume for mom to enjoy, or a nice drink set for dad. They know how to take care of their things and appreciate the finer things in life!
Hopefully these guides were somewhat helpful as you begin to navigate your holiday shopping. As I said before, keep following along on Instagram for more updates to the guides! As I think of unique things, I will be sure to keep you guys informed. I hope you all have a safe and happy holiday season!
