mother's day

What are you doing for your mom/MIL and what do you want if you are a mom?

Re: mother's day

  • A card. Nothing fancy.

  • I want to go to brunch just the three of us like we did last year. I don't know if or what gift they will get me. I want a new washer or a new stove or an aquamarine ring *I always want an aquamarine ring*.

    We will share a meal at some point with my mom but not sure about gifts. I shoud ask my bros. I saw something cool I wanted to get MIL but I need to get the rest of the family on board with chipping in.

  • I will probably go to brunch at my mom's house and then it is a custom to plant flowers at her house.  I think I will probably get her some flowers to plant and a bottle of wine.
  • I live 9 hours from my mom, so nothing. Crying

    I did get her a custom passport wallet thing with giraffes on it from Etsy and I'll send her a set of PJs.

    We are sending MIL a giftcard to Applebees so she can go to dinner on us. I would send it to somewhere nicer, but in Brunswick it's either that or Bob Evans.

  • We're having Ava's 6 month/Family pictures that morning and then I'd like to go to brunch or lunch somewhere.  It doesn't have to be fancy since we're doing a pretty nice brunch for Easter just the three of us.

    There's a cool necklace that I would like to get with Ava's name and a pearl in the color of her birthstone that I may send to H but I told him the pictures were what I wanted.

     

    I don't talk to my mom so that's out haha...and for his mom we'll honestly just probably send her a card

    May 8

  • We'll take my Mom to breakfast since we'll be home (my BFF is getting married the night before). We'll probably take my Grandma out or bring something to her if she's not feeling up to going out. For my MIL we usually try to take her out but we get blown off.

  • A card and probably flowers for her garden.  And we'll probably go see her MIL that day for lunch/brunch.
  • I am in the process if making this wreath for my mom. http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-X_j4Wem2hR8/TZc-qhICo8I/AAAAAAAAH9U/otZ7kh7Si_c/s1600/129.JPG sry if it's not clicky - posting from my phone. I would like a mom type necklace. Something like what Cole mentioned. I need to send J some links. Otherwise, J offered to help out the restaurant that day (gah!!!) so he won't even be around. Dunno what the girls and I will do. *sighhhh* Dunno about J's mom rt now either.
  • We are going to the beach that weekend. I'm sure we will be home pretty early that afternoon. I usually get MIL a gift cert to get her nails done. I will probably do the same for my mom or if the hospital has a sale for full body massages (they normally do) I will get her that.

    I thankfully will not be in the NICU and will not be POAS any time soon so hopefully I wont cry the entire day like I did last year.

  • When is Mother's Day?  My mom is coming to visit for a weekend in May, it may be the same weekend.  Last year Hubs cooked dinner for me, so we'll probably do the same.
