I’m trying to stay on top of all these gift guides for everyone. However, August has been making things a little challenging lately. He is super grouchy and just wants me non stop. I saw last night that all of his bottom teeth are now poking through the gums. I’m hoping this is why he has been so cranky lately. I am so excited for this Christmas, August will be able to actually open his gifts and enjoy all the festivities. We are taking him and Sophia on the Polar Express train this year. I’m not sure, but I may be a little more excited than them. Well onto the gift guide, hope this is helpful for you. Feel free to leave a comment and let me know what you think.

2. Just between us: Mother- Daughter Journal

4. Electronic Shooting Target (Nerf Guns)
Where: Amazon

My boy is obsessed with Nerf Guns, somehow they always manage to become confiscated. I feel that this would be great, as it gives them something to do with the Nerf Gun. So hopefully there’s no targeting siblings.

These are amazing, my kids each have one in their rooms. They listen to music at night, set their alarm clocks on it. They will ask questions when they get stuck on homework. We have the Alexa, I can’t comment on the Google as we don’t have them. A few friends have mentioned that they don’t like Google Home and are wanting to switch to Alexa.
10. Nintendo Switch
Where: Amazon
Price: $399.96
I’ve linked this to Amazon, it is also available at Walmart for the same price. However, anytime I can get something on Amazon I do. I love the switch, it has tons of age appropriate games for the kids, it is interactive. My kids love Just Dance and are always having competitions. This is the one electronic, I don’t mind them playing on.

Being me, loving you
