Lesse, I got a giant Rex from Toy Story Plushies from Melissa along with Mike the Monster as a Car and a Batman Happy Meal Toy.

Hooray for Burp-Days!

GREAT haul. I got 21, count 'em 21 plushies this year.

My friend from program got me a Ty Pluffies Snowman named Lil' Icebox.

Melissa got me a Plushie Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer and plushies of Hermey, Santa and Sam the Snowman from the same special as well as a Disney/ Pixar calendar. The Bridge also got me a $25 gift card to the Evil Empire... er, Wal-Mart.

My sister got me a twenty dollar gift certificate from Best Buy.

My Dad got me a plushie Pinnochio from Shrek which came with a plushie Gingy with a Candy Cane, along with a Giant Lounging Elmo and Chip 'N' Dale dressed in pirate costumes. He also renewed my subscription to Walt Disney's Comics and Stories.

My mom went overboard but luckily I knew she was going to so I got her a REALLY nice present too. She got me sixteen plushes almost all of them from the Disney Store. I got a plush Kaa from The Jungle Book, the dog Buster from the Annoying new CGI Winnie the Pooh cartoon (he's REALLY cute), Mike from Monsters Inc, along with a Golden Sleeping Beauty, Prince Philip and Small plushies of Cinderella's Fairy Godmother, and the three fairies (Flora, Fauna and Merryweather) from Sleeping Beauty. She also got me the Pixar Short Films Collection on DVD And two little dollar plushies (a tiny white bear and a tiny poodle).

I also got twenty dollars in spending money and supplies such as soap, washcloths, towels, and blank VHS tapes.

What I gave:

I got a 15 dollar gift card for my Dad from Best Buy.

I gave my sister a ten dollar gift card for Barnes and Noble.

I got a 40 dollar gift card for Barnes and Noble for my Mom.

I got a plushie Ty Pluffies Penguin name Waddles for Melissa.

I got a Ty Pufflie Unicorn named Castles for my friend at Program.

I gave two bags of Jelly Belly Jelly Beans to my Bill.

For my new Baby niece I got a machine washable My first Elmo. She's just starting to be able to see contrasts and she likes seeing it waved in front of her.

For my older niece I got Over the Hedge on DVD, a plushie Abby Cadabby Beanie Pal from Sesame Street, A Plush Cheer Bear Care Bear with DVD, and a Play-Doh Fun Factory set which she immediately loved and started to misbehave with. Kids.

Giving presents is even more fun than getting them. I just wish I had more money to spend. My Mom and Dad got me some really nice things and I'm worried I didn't spend enough on them. But I guess that's just what parents do. If you don't feel guilty they aren't doing their job. :P
