They each have about 13-15 presents to open. Then there will be a bike for younger DS and an electric scooter for older DS already assembled.

I have one DD. She'll be 3 in March. She's very much into Christmas this year. She will have 20 gifts under the tree plus a stocking. I think I'm crazy, but she was so easy to shop for and I know she's going to be so excited.
She also gets from my mom, dad, sister and brother. Present overload! Plus my mom is like Santa too with the number of gifts she gets.



This exactly. dd1 is 4 and dd2 is 22 months. It's nuts. Then both sides of the family oh boy. And my dh has a time of aunts that get them. Ahhhhhhhhh lol. Good thing I donated a bunch recently lol

She's probably got 20 plus presents but I was too lazy to wrap them individually so a bunch are in bags. THE baby is getting gipped, I only bought her 5 toys.

My mom, MIL and sister probably bought another 50 gifts. It's absurd

I have two boys...3.5 & 21 months. They each got one gift tonight (from us), they will each open 5 tomorrow morning (from Santa). For us, that is more than enough. We saw my family tonight and they were bombarded with gifts, tomorrow we see the in laws and I know they have tons of stuff for the boys too. So I keep Christmas morning small.

We got DS 5 things but he would have been good with even 2-3 things, the amount of toys he got on xmas eve from family is insane!!!!

From us, 5 toys & a few books in his stocking (he is only 16 months old & doesn't ask for anything in particular yet).

I went a little crazy but they were big things so we dev
decided to keep some things for her bday and any returns will be put towards her roller coaster we want to buy for her bday. I think we are up to about $100 which is great.

We tend to go overboard. This year she had about 20 and a power wheels (plus whatever our relatives gave us). We really need to cut back next year with the other baby coming. I just can't help it. She's my only so I tend to spoil her.

Eta: Last year was just ridiculous. We got 30 gifts. Never again! Lol. I didn't know where to put it all.

I get her what I like. This year we probably got her 20 things from Santa but the were all small and relativley inexpensive. DH parents got her a few things and my Mom and Dad went nuts as usual. Her uncles, great aunts, second cousins, God parents all bought! It was incredible. She is only one! I think I was just as excited as she was.

Usually at least 20/each, sometimes more depending. Their gifts are a mix of toys, books, and clothes plus a stocking with Xmas treats and small toys. I go a little overboard I guess but I only spoil them one time a year and Xmas morning is my absolute FAVORITE so the more gifts, the longer the fun lasts! Chat Icon Chat Icon

ETA - We have A LOT of family too that buys for them so they are opening a ton of gifts on Xmas Eve morning, Xmas Eve night, and Xmas Day evening in addition to all of their Santa gifts Xmas morning It's crazy!
