Comanche County Posted December 19, 2013 Share Posted December 19, 2013 Need help fellas on something original for my "Lil bRats". They're 11,12 & 13. They're cute and I love em, but they're strange little creatures I don't always understand and time is running out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ride172 Posted December 19, 2013 Share Posted December 19, 2013 Concert tickets to a group or musician that they like. Gift certificates to a clothing store they like. Electronics like nice headphones or mp3 players. I would give the concert tickets. It will be a fun time and they will always remember. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

87Warrior Posted December 19, 2013 Share Posted December 19, 2013 iTunes gift cards. My wife's little sisters thrived off of those.... and continue to do so in college. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Incommando Posted December 19, 2013 Share Posted December 19, 2013 My daughters are 13, 10, & 9. First piece of advice to you youngsters on here: do not wait until you are 37 to start having kids and then get all girls... :doh: My suggestion? Gift cards of any sort.They will probably want to pick put their own stuff by those ages. iTunes cards are indeed a big hit for those who are electronically connected. (BTW: thirteen is not a preteen... I am sure that she will point this out to you if you say that where she can hear you.... :banana:) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jimoshel Posted December 19, 2013 Share Posted December 19, 2013 :agree: I was 48 when my daughter, and only child was born.I wasn't around her when she was growing up. I now have 3 Grand kids ages 4, 11 and 14.All girls.I don't have the foggiest idea in H*ll what to get them so I just send them a check, a card and a short note.

AMCJeepMJ Posted December 19, 2013 Share Posted December 19, 2013 My 14 year old is aspiring a little higher this year: Beats headphones, iPhone 5, fashionable clothing [jeans with rhinestones on back pockets at $50 to $150/pair], an iPad, Bruno Mars and Justin Bieber CDs, etc. She will be disappointed this year as almost none of that stuff is within our budget, and will be lucky to receive Rue21, Bath & Body Works, or Victoria Secret gift cards with her 'smaller' items. Teenage girls aren't cheap. She also informed me that when she turns 16 she wants my truck. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HOrnbrod Posted December 19, 2013 Share Posted December 19, 2013 My daughters are 13, 10, & 9. First piece of advice to you youngsters on here: do not wait until you are 37 to start having kids and then get all girls... :doh: Amen on that. My son (with the first wife @ 23 years years old when we had him), was always easy. He loved sports as I did, and a baseball glove, football, hockey skates or similar were all he wanted. At 41, second wife, we had two girls. They both inherited their mother's love of jewelry, so they were easy too. Just more expensive. :eek: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

On the concert idea, The Band Perry is coming to town, they might like that, me not so much....but Don Williams is coming to town followed by Willie Nelson, then Gregg Allman (who btw lives about a mile away from me)....tough choices.

Keyav8r Posted December 20, 2013 Share Posted December 20, 2013 Yeah, if they all got a Comanche that would reduce Jim's stable down to around 75 or so. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Comanche County Posted December 21, 2013 Author Share Posted December 21, 2013 Update....the youngest has her own business "sorta", she cleans house and dog sits for several neighbors. She even made up her own business cards. Found these ads and I think I've convinced her mother its time for a dog. I love hounds and LGD Dogs, there's some beagle, bassett mixes and what looks like a Pyrenees mix nearby. http://savannah.craigslist.org/pet/4251809240.html http://savannah.craigslist.org/pet/4246488547.html savannah.craigslist.org/pet/4250737015.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Keyav8r Posted December 21, 2013 Share Posted December 21, 2013 The Lowe's tool boxes are available in pink or lavender, according to the sale sign I saw there today. Would have called it purple but I guess women have more colors in their mental palette than guys do. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
