Why all the excitement? Well, maybe because MY present, that I asked Santa to bring lovingly bought for myself is sitting right next to his present hidden in the crawlspace.
Tada! Yes you see it alright! That would be a Wii Fit, and a complementary Wii console for the husband (purely for the necessity of being able to use the Wii Fit).
Yesterday I told DadaWise that I already had his Christmas present, to which he responded “oh? …that’s nice”. Dammit, I was hoping he’d say with excitement “what is it?!?!” or”can I have it now?” To which I would have SQUEEEE’d with glee and quickly brought the unwrapped gift and dropped it into his eager hands. I was so hoping this would have been his response, purely for selfish reasons of course. And as he’d be connecting it up to the TV, I would be going back under the crawlspace and bringing out MY present with a look of love in my eyes.
Oh, this is going to be a long month and a half. Maybe he’ll breakdown and practically BEG me to give him his present early, and I’ll just have to oblige since I wouldn’t want to disappoint him, of course. A girl can hope.
I wonder how quickly he’ll figure out the real incentive for getting him a Wii for Christmas. I hope he realizes the he’s not really going to be allowed to play on it, because it’s going to be all mine!

I need one of those. I also NEED to wait this year until the last minute to Xmas shop, since I am that person who hints and begs someone if I can give them their present early.

Mamawise, are you one of those people who prefer giving gifts over receiving them? Because that? I don’t understand. But curiosity is killing me!! What did you get the Hubs?!?!?!?

I LIKE the way you think
That is an awesome gift.
Hmm…I may have to devise a plan like this for Dadisodes’ Christmas gift. Perhaps he would love a new pair of suede boots in a size 8
