I thought this would be a fun thread and I didn't see/remember anyone else posting one like it lately so here goes...

It's mid-November (this year is flying!!). Have you begun to tackle your holiday shopping yet? I haven't physically started, but I have been thinking about what I'd like to get each person on my list. The good thing is, now that we're married, Josh and I don't have to get seperate presents for our parents anymore (meaning, he gets his mom something, I get his mom something, etc.). We can give them a present from both of us, which will save on money.

I found great toys for Samantha, Kirin and Sushi on petedge.com for $16 (total!). I have the list saved pending approval from my husband to spend money on the animals (he loves them, he just isn't crazy like I am). I hope he says yes. If he does and I buy them, I will have officially started my shopping for Christmas 2004!

How about you all? When do you usually start?
