Make It Jayna's Monday: Christmas Edition

I began a few weeks ago with explaining the ins and outs of Christmas to Jayna.  She remembers that we had a tree last year and she remembers that she got new stuff.  Other than that, nada.

So we've been talking about Santa Claus and how he "makes a list and checks it twice."  How she has to be a good girl and Santa will bring her presents.  How we'll see our families and eat good food and talk to one another.  How we'll see lots of Christmas decorations and lights and how we'll decorate our house and make cookies and gingerbread houses and have parties, etc.

And...she's totally down.

She is soooo excited that she can hardly contain herself.

Right after Halloween, we received not one but TWO toy catalogs in the mail:  Toys R Us and Target.  And after I explained what those were all about, she was on board and promptly picked out 37 items that she wanted for Christmas.  She then looked at me and said, "Okay, mommy.  Let's go to the store and get my presents." 

She apparently has no concept of the future.

Here are the things on the top of Jayna's Christmas list, in no particular order.

Alphie The Learning Robot. 

This is always the first thing she says when I ask her.  She really loves robots.

VTech Kidizoom Camera. 

There are actually some out there that are real digital cameras that are cheap!  And this way she won't play with mine.

Fisher Price Loving Family Doll House.

She's definitely a girl.

Furreal Friends - Biscuit.

She has 2 REAL dogs at home that she sometimes is afraid of, but she wants a fake dog that acts like a real dog.  How's THAT for irony?? (And at $170.00, she DEFINITELY will NOT be getting this.)

Strawberry Shortcake Fresh Fashion Boutique...or ANYTHING Strawberry Shortcake.

Nothing compares to her reaction when she smells the Strawberry Shortcake figurines she has.  She's just as surprised EVERYTIME as she was the first. 

A train set that can be configured to her liking.

She isn't really partial to Thomas the Train, so I'll definitely be cheaping out on this one.  She just really likes to put together and take apart the track and make the trains go down the hills.  I'm not sure she even knows who Thomas is.

This is a tall order!!  I'm sure she won't be getting it all (unless I win the Lotto), but she'll definitely get Alphie.  She's been asking for that for WEEKS.  And, of course, I'll have to get her some girly toys.  :)

What do y'all want for Christmas??
