christmas list!

every year i try to think of things i need to put on my christmas list and i always find it a little challenging...for two reasons.  one, i dont need much.  and two, the things i really want or really need are usually pretty expensive (ie: new lens for my camera, a new computer, etc) and are things i would expect to buy for myself instead.

but this year ive been trying to come up with things that i need (and want) and i think ive come up with a few.

first, something like this:

i have a bottle of dolce and gabbana perfume that i LOVE.  and the sprayer on the bottle is broken.  and i need a new bottle to store it in.

and this: (www.thymes.com)

Olive leaf lotion by Thymes.  my favorite lotion.

the frasier fir candle (or the room spray!!), also by Thymes.  i want my whole life to smell like this.   i also just need some new candles in general (plain, scented or unscented, pillar candles that will burn a long time.

i know its dorky, but i kinda want one of these:  (http://photojojo.com/store/awesomeness/camera-lens-mug/)

the canon lens coffee mug (preferably the 16oz white one) .....  cause i'm dorky, like that.

something im dying for (and have been for about the past 2 years) is a new pair of uggs.  my last pair lasted me almost 4 years and were the BEST things i ever put on my feet.  these are the ones i want:

the women's classic short in black.  size 9. yummy.

these (women's muk luk's vintage toggle boot from target.com) are awesome too :

the 'moody rose' color/pattern.  size large.

OR these (women's muk luks classic cuff boot from target.com)

candy apple.  size large.

i also need clothes, but that's tricky.  before getting pregnant i got rid of everything that was too big when i started losing weight.  which was oh so fun trying to find anything to wear during my pregnancy when i was in between 'regular clothes' and 'maternity clothes' .... but as it is right now i have virtually nothing to wear and i know i wont be back in my prepreggo clothes right away.  (hopefully sooner than later, but...)  but i also dont know what sizes of things to ask for and wont really know until bella is at least a few weeks/months old.   so while i know a lot of people think its tacky, im not opposed to gift cards either of the universal (visa) variety or to target, where i can get some of the essentials i need (socks, sweats, leggings, underwear, bras, etc)...

xo.
