Anyone else...

He even told me he thought I'd be pleasantly surprised. I am hoping that means I have actual gifts under the tree and not just gift cards like I usually get. LOL
Boys r us replied: Haa I WOULD have a hard time not peeking, but there are no gifts uner the tree for me yet...let's just say that Rick is procrastinator when it comes to xmas shopping for me!
mom2my2cuties replied: Andrew always waits until the last second because I DO peek!
mysweetpeasWil&Wes replied: Ditto...No gifts for mommy yet! Which is fine actually. DH and I promised we wouldn't buy gifts for each other this year.
Boo&BugsMom replied: I peek, but I don't shake. My mother, who is 50, still shakes the presents. Tanner already told me he got me a banana holder. He doesn't keep secrets very well yet. Our darn cat keeps chewing the ends of Troy's presents (unless Troy is himself! ) so I'm certain he has an idea of what they are. I keep having to tape up the corners.
Kaitlin'smom replied: yes, espically since I know where they are and they are not wrapped yet
sparkys2boys replied: omg you guys!!! You all peek???? EKKKK.. where's the fun in that..lol?? I don't peek!!
MyBrownEyedBoy replied: I haven't peeked yet, but I've been sorely tempted.
Calimama replied: I would have already peeked. I have no self-control!
MyLuvBugs replied: Yep. Steven's gotten really good at hiding the gifts from me though b/c he knows that I will shake, weigh, and even.....smell to try and guess what a gift is. He says he's wrapped "them" up....So that implies more than one....it's very intriguing.
boyohboyohboy replied: oh, I thought it was just me!!!!
I can never help myself
MotherForever2043 replied: I peek sometimes. I have only gotten one christmas gift so far. It was form one of my good co worker from work. They all sent me a card and signed it, saying how much they miss me I can't wait to go back!!
3xsthefun replied: I don't ever really get the chance to peek, he usually buys them last minute, and hides them pretty good.
MyBrownEyedBoy replied: Aaron's usually a last minute Christmas Eve shopper too. So I seldom have the chance to peek. This year, he is going to visit his family from the 20-24, and he didn't want to shop there and have to pack it home. So, for once in 5 years, I have gifts under the tree that I didn't buy for myself. And it's still 6 days to Christmas. I am seriously going to have to get some willpower. Half the fun is the surprise, right?
coasterqueen replied: Oh I would if there were presents under the tree, but we usually don't shop for each other, or try not to.
Dh is the worst, though. He doesn't even need to shake a present. He stares at it and he can guess exactly what it is. One year I put a watch in a HUGE box and he still guessed it.
holley79 replied: Let's just saw I don't have any presents under the tree yet. The gifts are at my mom's house because I am horrible and it drives me batty. We are all worse then little kids. Last year I wrapped things in multiple boxes to disguise what he got.
stella6979 replied: If my presents were at our house, I'd definately peek. I just can not help myself. Of course, my DH knows this and keeps all my presents at his Parents house til Christmas Eve. LOL!
grapfruit replied: I only have one at the house for me. And it's a huge box and killing me. He wrapped it pretty well. I hate not knowing how big the other is. He told me he'd been saving his pennies all year and spent over $500.00. NOW I'm really curious! I can't WAIT until Christmas!!
CantWait replied: I got mine today, and it's quite pricey so I'm not expecting anything else.
Our Lil' Family replied: I'm lucky to get something that DH picked out himself! He usually just asks me what I want or I buy it myself. I can't remember the last Christmas he actually bought something for me all by himself!
I'm horrible about his gifts though, usually a day or two before Christmas I'm begging him to open them. He usually says no, he wants to wait....scrooge!! LOL
Calimama replied: Ooo I'm excited for YOU. You better post after you unwrap.
My2Beauties replied: My DH just put one of mine under the tree tonight and Im' already shaking it! I have no clue what it is. It's driving me bonkers, but I won't peek I like to be surprised! DH can guess just like Karen's hubby can, he looked at his big present I got him and goes oh that's my air hockey table Now how on earth did he know! I told him it wasn't and he was crazy if he thought I was spendnig that kind of money on an air hockey table, little does he know I got one heck of a deal on it. But yeah he'll say oh that's shoes, that's a shirt, those are my pants...etc... He even guessed one year a bowling ball bag, a big 4-ball bag, I put it in a huge moving box and he still knew
