@OliveOyl2014 I thought about that, but I don't think she would wear it. I think I'm just going to tell DH I got her a card and if he wants to get her something else, he can knock himself out.

Total Mother's Day Gift Giver Failure!! Besides Christmas and birthday's, I'm not really on board with all the other gift giving holidays. I usually forget about Mother's Day until the day of. So if I will be with my mom then I'll get her a card and take her out to eat. But some years I'm doing good just to call her. Step-mom will get a card if I'm giving them or a text and DH takes care of his mom.
@aprilsarahjune that's very interesting! I'll look more into it. I'm totally that way with gifts. I always feel the need to reciprocate so it feels pointless. DH and I got into an argument yesterday because I said I didn't want anything for Mothers Day. But he apparentaly already bought something. Whoops. I'm kind of in the dog house now with that.
we were talking this morning about what to get MIL for Mother's Day. We are going on a trip next week with her and other family and he said we should buy dinner out for EVERYBODY for Mother's Day (his grandma, his sister, and MIL) and I'm just like....no. Then he said we could buy them all Mother's Day cards too. No, again. So I've just decided I'm the grinch of Mother's Day.
in other news, I'm waiting to get my semi yearly haircut (lol #momlife) and I'm tempted to chop off about 6 inches.
i just did my language of love and it appears i am gift grabby lololzzz. i think it is just bc H gives me so much affirmation i dont really "crave" that. but touch and gifts i am like.

lolzz. I would just add that the gifty love language is really a positive thing, not a negative! If it makes you feel loved, go ahead and get yo'self some!

question - are these things all what you feel are lacking in your relationship? like acts of service and affirmation i feel like we have covered so i picked the opposite. but if i didnt feel like i had those things i think my language would be different.
I don't know what a love language is but I'm going to find out.

I'm tied between Acts of Service and Quality Time. This is accurate, because DH is super helpful around the house, especially now. The Quality Time could be improved, but my pregnancy induced narcolepsy kind of puts a damper on that at the end of the day.

@carries2018 did you take the actual Love Languages quiz. It has you compare things in a "would this or this make you feel more loved"?

All this registry talk has me has me doing some research, anyone use an angel movement monitor/snuza or any other movement monitor with their babies? What are your thoughts? Pros/Cons
@canonmom413 the owlet is so expensive. I looked at it months ago when the Baby Guy was doing a giveaway. I like that the anglecare comes with the movement monitor and the video monitor. But I will most likely have baby in the PNP early on and I'm not sure that will work there.
FFTC I realize now my fffc was pretty much due to a rough week at work and now I can't decide whether to feel like a hypocrite or blame hormones. So to put off feeling either I started a gif party.
I just bought myself a footlong listeria sandwich. Also bought another footlong listeria sandwich for DH, and a mini listeria sandwich for DD because I like to share.
