HOLIDAY GIFT IDEAS FOR EXTROVERTS

December 6, 2018

photo by Gloria Goode

Extroverts are odd creatures to me. You are telling me you get energy and recharged batteries from being around a bunch of people? Yeah. Right. That’s so not me, however I have a lot of people in my life who are these enigmatic extroverts. And they deserve attention this holiday season, too… I guess.

I kid. I actually really admire extroverts. While I like being around others and socializing to a certain extent, I am not one to boldly introduce myself to a new person (except for that time I hit on my now-husband five-and-a-half years ago…). I don’t want to organize or attend a bunch of social events every night of the week, and I avoid talking on the phone like the plague. I’m just fine to spend most nights with my cup of Relax tea, a book or Bravo, and little old me. (And John and Piper, of course, but they are equally as no-new-friends mode as I am.)

That’s why I started these personality-aligned gift guides with introverts last week. Because I just understand the quiet types (one might say “loners”) more. But this week, extroverts get the spotlight they always seem to want—or in my mom’s case, the microphone she always seems to want.

I might not totally understand them, but I happen to have quite a few in my family and friendships. They are outgoing and inclusive and charismatic. They’re confident, conversational, and ambitious go-getters. Spoil the extroverts in your life this Christmas season with one or a few of these gift ideas for the socially inclined busy bees in your life.

1. Why Not Me? by Mindy Khaling ($13): Because I just really feel like extroverts resonate with Mindy Khaling.

2. Big Magic: Creative Living Beyond Fear by Elizabeth Gilbert ($13): Because every creative-esque-type person needs to read it.

3. Gemstone Coasters ($14): Because your tables should be protected from beverages in style.

4. A Gorgeous + Useful Planner ($59): Because you have places to go and people to see.

5. Thug Kitchen 101: Fast as F*ck Cookbook ($29): Because you should really learn how to cook, even if you don’t have a lot of time.

6. Glass Smoothie Straws Set of 4 ($24): Because apparently there’s a war on straws?

7. These Precious Faux Fur Throw Pillows ($38): Because COME. ON.

8. A Coffee Mug as Funky as Their Personality ($14): Because caffeine should look cute, too.

9. A Whimsical Passport Holder ($30): Because we’ll travel again… someday.

10. A Gorgeous Carafe ($34): Because your drinks should look this cute when you serve them to friends.

11. “The Bucket List: 1,000 Adventures Big & Small” ($35): Because your coffee-table book should inspire you.

12. The Sweetest iPhone Case ($34): Because this just feels right.

13. Amazon Echo ($99): Because everyone wants their speaker to play them music, buy them things, and tell them jokes.

14. Brass 6-bottle Wine Rack ($68): Because your wine should look beautiful before you drink it.

If you choose to purchase any of these products, I will receive a small percentage of the sale. These are all items I either have and love, or would buy for someone I love. Thank you for your support this holiday season!

Who do you think was more excited about this day t Who do you think was more excited about this day trip out to the coast... us or Wallace? 😅😂 I love them. Also, I can’t get over the burp cloth on John’s shoulder. Ya know, just in case. #newparentlife
One hour, just us two in our backyard with a big c One hour, just us two in our backyard with a big charcuterie board, a deck of cards, a couple glasses of rosé, and no baby monitor. 🤎

The first week of Wallace’s life? I ached even being in another room from him (#hormones). I was a wreck of emotions and had legitimate baby tunnel vision... preeeetty much nothing else mattered. But things have been balancing out this past week, and today was so needed.

My mom is in town all month and watched Wally for us so we could have some time just us two—yep, in the backyard because of shelter in place restrictions from COVID. (Plus let’s be real... I’m not quite ready for an out-of-the-house date yet anyway. 😂)

As much as I desire to be a present + loving mama and ambitious business owner, it’s just as important to me to prioritize our marriage with little moments like this to just be in each other’s presence (and not just talk about burping and swaddling and bedtime routines, like most of our recent convos).

Here’s to (almost) 2 weeks of being parents, @the_beermonger. I think we’ll do okay.

Me, trying to figure out what to do with my hands Me, trying to figure out what to do with my hands without a bump. 👐🏼 Wallace, trying to figure out what we’re doing out of the house. 🤨

First family walk in the books! All of 10 minutes. 🤪 (Also, does anyone else notice the rainbow over Wally?... My heart. 🌈🥺)
1 week old. 🤎 The hardest, most emotional & mos 1 week old. 🤎 The hardest, most emotional & most rewarding week of my life. Babies’ sleep schedules, y’all. They are not for the faint of heart.

Wallace is hitting all his milestones, has learned the alphabet, and is picking up Latin. Just kidding. But he CAN poop 3 times in an hour and a half 😎, and he eats like a champ, is so strong that we prefer to tag team diaper changes for now, and makes the sweetest, cutest noises all day long. (And night.) Like even his cry is cute. 😩

One of my friends called this time the “wet weeks”: urine, breast milk, spit up, night sweats, tears, blood, more tears. It’s a lot, and it’s temporary. So even in the hard moments, we are reminding ourselves that the hardest things are often the best things. 

And this really has been the best thing.

So, so thankful for a hands-on husband who’s been so involved in everything... there’s something indescribable about watching your partner care for your child and step into a big, new role like this so gracefully. And we are thankful for ALL of the support, near and far (... mostly far), from our family and friends and coworkers. What a week... here’s to continuing to figure it all out together as a family. 😌

Welcome, Wallace Ronal Skelton. 🤎 You kept us waiting until you decided, very quickly, you’d like to be here. I’m still in disbelief that you are ours.

Well, this baby friend doesn’t exactly have our Well, this baby friend doesn’t exactly have our sense of punctuality which realllly threw me for a loop after thinking & saying for months that I was certain he/she would get here early. I’ve drank 3 boxes of raspberry leaf tea in 3 weeks, walked dozens of miles, eaten way too many dates, done hundreds of squats and bench step-ups... and now I’m surrendering. You come whenever you feel like it, little one. I’m comfy enough and can still sleep through the night (minus a bathroom break or two) so we will just keep on waiting and letting you teach us our first lesson of parenthood: PATIENCE. I knew I could always use some more of it. 😉 #40weekspregnant #pregnancy
