What are you giving for Mother's Day?

[Deleted]

I WANT to sleep in and have a pedicure. I'd like breakfast, too, but Jake gave me bug-eyes and said it was either sleep in OR breakfast, lol. So fine.

We're going to do handprint and thumbprint clay things this weekend for my mom and MIL. They will love them! Handprints for my mom's garden and thumbprints for my MIL's jewelry box.

I think we're getting her an Orioles jersey. She's generally impossible to shop for.

Flowers.  Always.  Simple and fun.

We are doing kid painted flower pots this year.

Last year was makeup/skincare stuff for MIL and a new purse for my mom.

For me- sleeping in (where DH takes DS out of the house until 10a) and them returning with a latte. Ahhhhh.

ETA: DS has the same jammies and shirt as your DS is wearing in your sig pic.  That thing cannot get washed and back in his drawers fast enough.

I am making my mom her favorite dessert that I bake- Coconut cream cheese pound cake

MIL- I am taking her with me to Canada for Christmas and paying all her expenses. She has never been anywhere out-of-state.

If I was a mom, I'd want a facial.

I'm making mason jar vases with Hart's handprints on them for the grandmas.

As for me, I just want to sleep in, go to yoga and have a long, lazy breakfast somewhere after. I won't lie, H hasn't asked me what I want for mother's day or my birthday (same weekend). If he completely falls down on the job, I'm doing all of those things followed by sitting at a bar by myself all day

I bought my mom a spa gift card.

Cards and updated photos of DS. We are going OOT with two other couples mothers day weekend to Palm Springs. I can't wait!

We always do hanging plants for the Moms and Grandmas. Simple and pretty.

I just got a coupon from Sephora for a free 45 minute make up session so I'm taking my mom to get her makeup done before we all go out to eat. She rarely does nice things like that for herself so I'm looking forward to treating her.

In addition to that I will be buying flowers for her and my grandmas. My H is responsible for getting his mom something so I'm not sure what he is planning on.

[sake]

I don't know what to get my mom. She has everything, and wants nothing. But she's like really the world's BEST mom. All my friends even tell me they want her to be their mom too, b/c she is SOOO nice, and caring, and even looks for jobs for them when they are unhappy with theirs, or calls them if I mention they aren't feeling well. She's the best guys. Plus she's helped me so much with G, and I really want to get something for her that shows her my appreciation, but I DON'T KNOW WHAT!!!

I asked H to get me a necklace. I think he ordered it. If not, I will be on here bitching. lol.

I gave my mom a canvas with a Mumford and Sons lyric on it. She's loves them. My ma is kinda hipster.

She also collects vintage-y, quirky/ugly Christmas ornaments, so I got her this little Fourth of July girl ornament for when the baby is due.

I had to think about what that meant and HA!

I posted what I am getting my mom a couple days ago. SUPER excited for her to see them. An etsy seller screen prints recipe cards on hand towels and aprons. My nana passed away in 2002 so for my mom to see her handwriting alone will make her cry her eyes out. (PS: Today is the last day to get your orders in so you have them in time.)

Here's my post.

I have a hard time with MIL's present every year, and while it should be DH's job to deal with it I'm a nice person and I just send her flowers. Easy, done. And then I have DS1 and DS2 make her a sloppy lovey kid card and some messy craft. Very little effort on my part, MIL is happy, everyone wins.

[fuckyourcouch]

my mom hinted about a keurig, so she's getting that, a pack of assorted kcups, and a reusable kcup.
