Hello, I would appreciate any assistance on wiring 2 vanity lights and 2gfi on the same line.

I would run power to a 2 gang switchbox, with a single gang mudring if switching only 1 item, you don't mention an exhaust fan, so you probably have a window.
Then wires from switchbox to first light, then first light to second light.
Then run from switchbox to first GFI, then from first GFI to second GFI location. This can be a regular receptacle hooked to the "Load Side" GFI.

Are the two lights to be operated by the same switch, or two different switches?

Are you using type NM cable (Romex) as a wiring method?

Can you feed through one GFCI to a regular receptacle?

There are several ways to do it. Here is one.

For each receptacle, you need an un-switched hot wire, and for every light, you need to have a switched wire.

Both ways work, It's a personal thing, I don't like "switch loops", I like the power to go to the switch box, I feel it is easier to work with, especially learning.
Many people like and use switch loops?

Personally, I prefer to put the lights on a different circuit from the outlets. If an outlet gets overloaded and trips the breaker, the lights stay on. With hair dryers, curling irons, etc. I usually run a separate circuit just for the bathroom outlet(s).

I am wondering how anybody can give advice on such a vague query as this.
On top of that the OP posted this almost SIX days ago and has not returned with more info or to answer some of the questions asked of him.

How are we supposed to effectively help folks like this??

Maybe he figured it out.

I doubt it. This is an unfortunately common occurrence. Someone makes posts all over on many different boards and sites and they forget where they posted. This is especially annoying when the post is cryptic like the one above where much more info is needed, but they never come back.
