  I usually give my mom a spa day gift cert - and that's what DH usually gets me, too.

  A photobook with pictures of her grandchildren.  I took a bunch of pictures last month at Jake's birthday of all of the kids.

  Nothing this year...her grandson is on the way

  I told DH I wanted a card but no gift.  I want to get a pearl and diamond necklace after LO is here (June is pearl and April (the twins) is diamond), but I have to wait until LO is here to make sure he really is born in June

  My moms birthday is the week after Moms day so I usually do a joint gift. This year, she has hinted that she would like an iPad (yeah my 65 yo mom is into iPhones and all that) so my sisters and I are all pitching in to get her one. 

  I would love a GC for a massage. 

  A lot of years and a million tears finally led me to you.

  I think I'm going to do photobooks for my mom and MIL.

  I told my DH that I wanted a nice swing for outside by our pond. The previous owners left a handmade piece of crapola that needs to go to the burnpit.

  I told DH not to get me anything. I'd rather wait until there's something I truly want.

  For my mother and MIL, they'll get a box of truffles and flowers. Grandmas will get flowers too.

  This mother's day is going to suck so bad since it is my first without my Mom.  Hug your moms for me.

  I know, I'm so sorry!  It's the same way for me on Father's day.  It will be fun to celebrate DH being a dad this year.  Father's day usually just makes me sad.  Mother's day might be a little bittersweet this year as it lands on my dad's birthday.

  The grandma's are getting charms for their g'ma bracelets.  My mom will get a train as she took DS on a special train ride this year that he talks about every single time we drive past the place.  MIL will be getting a charm that I can't seem to figure out yet!

  In my dream world I'd like a credit for 12 more sessions with my trainer and a delightful massage.    Realistically  but happily I will get 2 red wooden outdoor chairs and a small table  for the playset area.  I'll be thrilled with any gift just sort of wish it was for me alone not for all of us.
