Christmas Wishlist 2011

This is the obligatory Christmas List Post. I wasn't going to do it, but my sisters did, so I thought I'd jump on the bandwagon. I'm just that kinda person.
As our big gift we want a stainless steel dishwasher. Our house doesn't have one and we are desperately wanting one. Plus, it'll help with other things in the future.
Next we have Kaleb. I know that he's getting a wooden workbench...not this one, but something similar from Bed, Bath, and Beyond. He's also getting a tent, playspace, and some books.

Now that he's really enjoying bath time, we wanted to get him some new bath toys. They have all sorts of stuff now like bath paints and cool stuff from Crayola. I don't know what the picture is below, but it gets the "bath toy" idea across.

On to me, I know what I want (and hey, this is my blog after all) so there's more stuff for me. I want some picture frames. I saw these cool framed flower pictures at Kirklands and really wanted them. Then I realized that my bedroom calendar has pictures that are very similar. So instead of buying those from Kirklands I though I could pick my favorite ones and frame them myself. Plus I want some fabric. I'm going to be recovering my kitchen chair cushions, ottoman, and accent pillows (as I've mentiond a bunch of times before) but fabric is way more expensive than I thought.

I also want a Nook. I'm a book fanatic and I've had the idea that if I got a Nook it'd be like I was cheating on books. But frankly, I'm running out of room on my bookshelf and I don't have room for another one. Plus, if I really like a book I can always buy it for my shelf so I can lend it out. I do plan on having a reading space (nook, if you will) in my perfect house surrounded by shelves of books. I may have to end up buying more to fill them.

I found a painting at Bed, Bath, and Beyond that I just loved. It spoke to me. There's just something about it that makes me love it. I don't know if I would put it in the living room or the bedroom, but it would definitely have a home. I need a Swiffer wet jet as well. I don't mop...ever...because it's just a pain in the butt. I think I would mop more if I had one.

Finally, I want some Toms. I'm not sure what kind I want, but I know that I want some. I'll just have to go pick some out. I'm trying to decide between practical or fun.

On to Eric. His list is super easy because it's super short. He wants gift cards and the new Zelda game. Literally, that's it. So that's our list. Hope you enjoyed it!
