Things I Love Thursday: Favorite Christmas Gifts

We’ve had a week or so to digest all the craziness that is Christmas, and I was just thinking about a couple things I’ve become obsessed with come to love during that time… hence this post! Here are a few of my favorite Christmas presents:


Cotton Modal Crew Top from Lands’ End. I got one of these a few weeks ago to wear under a sweater, and the first time I put it on, I told Andy I wanted one in every color. The next day, I got an email from LE announcing a sale, so I bought myself one in (almost) every color. A couple days later, two packages from LE were on my doorstep. I opened them both right up… and they both contained the exact same thing – this shirt in every color. I thought LE accidentally sent my order twice until I looked at the shipping labels – one was addressed to me and one was addressed to Andy. He had ordered them as a Christmas present! So I ended up with like 10 of these shirts – in duplicate colors – and I loved them so much that I kept them ALL. They are that wonderful. They’re perfect for wearing on their own or layering, and I think I’ve worn one just about every day since Christmas.


iPad Keyboard Dock. Andy also ordered this for me, and it was a complete surprise. I vaguely knew docks existed, but I had never really considered getting one. However, I LOVE it. It’s so handy – I just pop the iPad on top of the keyboard and it’s good to go. It makes emailing/blogging/whatever on the iPad much, much easier, and since my iPad has 3G, that means I could do all those things while driving down the highway (well, Andy was driving) on an after-Christmas road trip. It was a beautiful thing.

Money. I’ve got some Christmas money that is burning a hole in my pocket… which is really the point of my post – to get ideas of what I should buy with it!

So… what Christmas presents did YOU love this year?

  1. I got a fab Lands’ End fleece coat from Bobby which I asked for 🙂 and a wonderful Bravado nursing bra which I also asked for! They are great! We have a little Christmas $$ we are going to spend at IKEA on some storage solutions for all our books, puzzles, and art supplies for the kids. We are going to turn our mud room into the space for that stuff.

  2. I love my new Roomba from my mother-in-law! I can just push the little button and come home to a clean house. Well, not a completely clean house, but a vacuumed floor. Which is a little victory for me.
