    Those are adorable! New running shoes are definitely at the top of my list...I was injured last June, and just had knee surgery last week. I haven't been on a run in way too long...in January I start physical therapy any my long road to recovery. I'd love to have some new shoes to travel that road on!

  15. While I really want some new books (the Percy Jackson & Hunger Games series are at the top of my list), I don't really need anything. A little time with my busy med school husband would be nice. And some girl time with my busy sister (& new mom for the 2nd time) would be awesome, too.

  24. A tripod so that I can actually get a photo of the 5 of us together, a 14" Lodge iron skillet (with a family of 5, you need one that big to make enough fried potatoes!) and if I've been really good I would like one of those mini (FLIP) HD video cameras to catch all the cute things in video that I've been missing! It's a lot, I know, but any one of the 3 would be just fine with me!
