ajburlingame Posted November 18, 2005 Posted November 18, 2005 Do you have stockings for just the kids or do you also have stockings for the parents, dogs, etc? At our house there is a stocking for myself, my husband, my daughter and our baby that is due 2/7/6. We had a dog that passed away this last year, but for the previous 10 years, he also had a stocking. At my moms house there are stockings for my mom and dad, my grandma, my sisters and I, our husbands and all of our children. I think we have more fun getting our stockings then the presents. Just wondering if other people do this also?
berry1014 Posted November 18, 2005 Posted November 18, 2005 At our house we have stocking for us and our daughter. We also have a stocking for both my parents and my DMIL. It just seems more fun this way.
best4less Posted November 18, 2005 Posted November 18, 2005 Here we have stockings for the whole house :)
Guest all2tired Posted November 18, 2005 Posted November 18, 2005 We all have stockings but only the kids and dog get theirs filled. Pre kids, we used to get ours filled but not anymore
laura8773 Posted November 18, 2005 Posted November 18, 2005 Everyone has stockings (including pets) and they all get filled. I really hate filling mine but the kids expect it. The kids have stockings at grandma and grandpa's.
huseboy Posted November 18, 2005 Posted November 18, 2005 we all have stockings but I also only fill kids and dogs
gisellerol Posted November 18, 2005 Posted November 18, 2005 WE ALL HAVE STOCKINGS AND I FILL THE KIDS AND HUBBYS
crystalhicks Posted November 18, 2005 Posted November 18, 2005 At our house we have stockings for all of us including the dog (well the geckos don't have them). I fill my husbands and he fills mine.... and then of coarse we fill the 3 kids together. We also have stockings for my husbands brother and two sisters...we get them a few weeks b/f christmas so that they can all have a christmas together b/c to make a long sad story short we raised his brother from the time he was 13 who is now 20 and lives on his own, one of his sisters lives with her best friend and his youngest sister is in foster care...well she actually gets adopted in the morning (and yes that is a great thing as we know the foster family and get to see and talk to her and even get her for weekend visits and will be at her adoption in the am)...due to his mothers (my husband has a different dad) lifestyle they have not all had a Christmas together in about 8 years so I am trying my best to make it a wonderful and unforgetable one for all of them.
fairydustcrissy Posted November 18, 2005 Posted November 18, 2005 That is great, Crystal! I fill everyones except mine, and hubby fills that one. We all get to open stockings!

cami_reardon Posted November 19, 2005 Posted November 19, 2005 Okay, so I started this when the kids were little and now I just have to continue. I have a stocking for everyone, including the dogs, cats, hamsters, frogs. *S* It's fun and I can spoil them all on one day without DH complaining that I spent too much! :cheesy: :cry2:
alimfp Posted November 19, 2005 Posted November 19, 2005 We do them for all of the *humans* in the house. LOL.
treasure60 Posted November 19, 2005 Posted November 19, 2005 I do the kids and hubby's stockings and he does mine. I also do my son, DIL, and grandchildren. Mostly they get g/c and personal use items.
pampam Posted November 19, 2005 Posted November 19, 2005 My house has the perfect mantel for stockings. Because I live alone I hang my collection as part of the decorations and stuff them with tissue paper. I have two handmade stockings that I received as a child and the rest are cat themed for my spoiled fur-babies.
timbermommy Posted November 19, 2005 Posted November 19, 2005 EVERYBODY human gets a stocking here! the cat dog and ferrets dont count lol
