I can coordinate it, if y'all want.

I'm awfully sleep deprived this week because of Leila's surgery and recovery.. so y'all have to help me a bit if you want me to do it.

I don't mind collecting things and sending them out, but I'd want to just do flat rate priority boxes to return things in - with delivery confirmation. Obviously, shipping to canada would be different. I can either collect that too, or we can handle shipping directly to/from our Canadian participants.

Dates? Do we want it divided by age group, or do we just want to make sure that if there's under a certain number of kids, we send something for each child? Do we want a mama swap? Do we want to post likes/dislikes/favorite colors, etc? Basically, how do y'all want this to run? I couldn't care less, actually, whether I'm making individual things or a ton of one thing, etc.

I'll take input through Sunday and post something officialish on Monday if that works for y'all.

she seems to be turning the corner - I think the scabs have come off and we're just dealing with a little soreness. She napped 2 hours with me yesterday and then slept 9 pm to 7 am before she woke up crying. That was amazing and would have been a nice amount of sleep - but Josh threw up 6 times, and I was up with him. I was sick yesterday, Eric was sick the day before and stayed home yesterday... so far, Lindsey's doing okay though, but my house is fairly miserable at the moment.

I'll get it figured out and something posted by the weekend. My theory currently is that what we do will depend on how many sign up... less than 10 kids, we can do stuff for each child.. more than that, we'll do it by age group. That work?

I personally dont want to make 6 or 7 different things....
I can do 2 for different groups but if everyone has 3 or more kiddos...that will be a bit much.

anyway lets start a list with maybe 6 slots and try to get more people to join !!

Mamas who are watching this thread.....you dont have to be super crafty !! just a little creative !! come and join, we can walk you through any questions and post ideas !!
Its fun really.........promise !!!
Its really great to have truly unique little gifts in the stockings !!!
