My youngest DD b/d is 3 days after Christmas. I've always made sure to keep "her" day special, but lemme tell ya, it's hard sometimes, when you're buying Christmas presents AND birthday at the same time, then forget which present was for what! :lol:

I don't do pictures but I am doing some placemats and table runner sets for my daughter and DIL. I am making a cat throw pillow for my grandaughter. I am just making a lot of small stuff and a couple of quilts. I am creative and I have nothing to do but set and do stuff. I am also doing some of my cross-stitching for gifts. I have oodles already sewn. I do breadcloths, pictures, doillies, towels, bags, and lots of things.

My DS was born 3 days after Christmas and I always insisted on everyone giving him seperate presents. I also made them wrap in Christmas and b-day paper.
I would make sure to buy a seperate present for his birthday but most of the time I would forget and give him all of the presents. Then I would have to go out and buy more for his birthday.
H usually came out better.
