I feel so sneaky!

Due to DH's car dying TWICE last year and him losing his job THREE times we had a lot of money issues last year. It got so bad that we were paying the minimums on all our bills only because my mom was giving us a few hundred every month just to survive. Our wedding presents to each other got put on hold (which we were both pretty disappointed about because mine was my something blue (see the jewelry album I have) and DH's was his first nice watch).

My earrings we had specially made, they're basically Tiffany knock-offs and cost us about 1/3 of the price! (They look just like the real thing btw) so we paid them off in layaway first. And DH's Tag Heuer watch has been sitting there forever (he didn't want to pay for it until we could pay in cash and not have to pay tax).

We went into the store the other day to pick up a repair and he looked at the watch case (which is practically a tradition at this point) and was upset because his watch was gone. Well that's because I've been paying it off on layaway to give to him with all his other Christmas stuff.

I'm never able to keep secrets (or buy a present and not give it to him right away), so I'm really excited and proud of myself for this!

I've learned to wait until the last minute to buy it, this way I only have to wait a day. Otherwise there are times when I literally give it to him the day I buy it. I'm so bad. What am I gonna do when we have kids and have to wait until Christmas to give them stuff?

That's so sweet of you! It would be hard for me to keep a secret like that BUT you have done a good job THUS far. Let us know the outcome when you do give him the gift.
