April 2012 Moms

Another gift exchange anyone?

So I've been thinking lately. I really enjoyed our past exchanges and was trying to think of a new one we could possibly do. I came up with the idea that maybe we could exchange things for US! Something to pamper us mom's. Something to celebrate all our hard work of getting through our pregnancies, child birth, and those first few sleepless(or continuously sleepless) nights.

Examples: Lotions, face mask kits, perfumes, or really just anything that makes us feel beautiful and womanly again!

I don't know about everyone else but maternity leave made me feel icky, just sitting around in my spit-up filled pjs all day. When I had a friend visit from out of town a couple weeks ago, we went out for mani-pedis and I just felt so refreshed and good about myself again.

So what do you ladies think?

I think we will wait until everyone has their babies and what not. I know we will be/are super busy with newborns, but I thought it'd be a fun idea.

I am also not sure how to set up elfster to get our matches, so is anyone willing to coordinate the exchange?

  • I love the idea, but I have no clue how to do Elfster... Maybe a mothers day theme!

    Yeah! I actually thought about coming back to edit the post to add in something about mother's day after seeing the mother's day gift idea post.

    I am hoping this thread gets a little more feedback though. I'll probably have to bump it up a few times to get it some attention since most of us are only able to get on every couple days with newborns or being in labor and what not.
