uummm. Well, I went xmas shopping with hubby today. He has known about it for WEEKS, we planned to get it all done today, as we are busy from now up until xmas. Well, I would have rather gone with 4 2 year olds. he was terrible. I offered him many occasions to back out before now, but he WANTED to come. Bad idea, as he whinged and moaned so much I only ended up getting 2 things, before I had a major tanty at him and we came home. We had a huge argument in the warehouse over pixi fotos, we went to pick them up, and he had "forgotten" how much I had told him they were. (all done under our breaths, not a big huge yelling fight, even though I felt like I wanted one), and this was BEFORE we even got into town. He would rather go hard out in one shop,and get cr#p, where as I prefer to have a look around and give the pressies some thought.
ARRRRRRRRRRRRRRRGGGGGGGGGGGGHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!
Don't know how or when I am going to get it done now, may have to book Jake in for xtra care to do it!!
Please tell me you ladies have husbands with similar disabilities!!!

Lewis insists on coming xmas shoppnig also. 2 problems - he hates crowds and flies into NZ on the 23rd of december...hmmmm. So we are off shopping on the 24th. what fun it will be!
I have written a list and got pics of the net of possible presents and found where they are in the shops. You can often look at the shops online which helps so you can browse before you shop.
But actually, we are leaving jake with Mum when we go shopping!
Hubbies suck at shopping huh!

my husband and i went to the warehouse today and did all our xmas shopping... we pretty much knew what we wanted and had already shopped around and discussed them. i had the pushchair with the kids and he had the trolley. the only screaming was the 2 year old. guess i am lucky after all.

Haha I think I have something to look forward to!! (not!) Was going to go yesterday before I took Arna to the Santa Parade (which I thought was boring this year!) But nooooo I have to go in with david next weekend!! We are only getting things for Arna this year as we are getting a puppy in January ($800) so that is mine and Davids pressie... But we are going to have FUN for Arna... I will want to get her one thing, David will want to get something else and we will end up getting both after a huge argument... I can see it all now...
*Time to ban christmas I think* haha

Ha ha, I am not so sure that is a disability so much as something they are taught at school? maybe while us girls are getting the mother and daughter talk, the boys are getting the "how to drive your lady nuts while shopping talk?"
So selfish!!!!!!!!!!!

Nathaniel loves to shop! Sometimes he's worse than me! We've done the majority of our christmas shopping, and we boxed the wrapped presents up and posted them to my inlaws place. Saved space - now we don't need to find room in the car for them when we're going to be away for 3 weeks... we've just got to find room to bring everything back!

Haha I am going to sympathise with you now Becca! We went to Hamilton for a month inbetween farming jobs and it just happened to be Arna's birthday when we were there so we went up with the boot full and a pillow next to Arna and on the way back Arna was squeezed into the corner in the back! We got pulled up by the cops on the way home for a "taillight not working" - and didn't say anything about the overloaded car!!
Janine - Yeah it was the Palmy one, everyone was just sitting there going "Merry Christmas" - Arna only liked Shrek, the calf and sheep and the cop car!! Don't blame her!!
