I got a new baby seat for my bike. A is still too little for it, but I hope within a few weeks we can venture out for some rides.

Those are some awesome presents!! :-D

I got roses from DH and Charlie slept 13 hours last night and then took a 2 hour nap this afternoon. I consider that a gift.

I wish I got a card - at least "from" Charlie. I like saving things like that.

Neat!! Is it the handle bar seat or the back of the bike seat?

ThePolishHammer · May 2011

I got a beautiful orchid (my favorite flower), two cards, a worlds best mom mug, and a frame. The frame has three spots... one is for a picture of us two, one for her handprint, and one for her footprint. And it also has a little plaque that says "First Mother's Day _ May 8, 2011" And now DH is cooking dinner. Today was a good day. : )

desertlady86 · May 2011

I got breakfast, a really pretty card and a MOM necklace. I also got to spend the day with my mom and my Grandma. Couldn't have asked for a better day Cool

babyonthebrain2010 · May 2011

my H got done with his 12 hour shift and got me a Big Mac, large fry and McFlurry

I'm eating the McFlurry right now! but Big Mac was cold and soggy on the bottom.. anyway, Ezra was giving me lots of smiles all day so that was the greatest thing ever

lrn327 · May 2011

DH and DS got me a set of Chewbeads (necklace and bracelet). My DH couldn't find a gift bag quickly enough to wrap it in so he put them on my DS and brought him in to me this morning. It was absolutely adorable. I told him it was way better than a gift bag anyway. Also, DS slept till 7:15am this morning and we spent the afternoon at the pool (his first time). We finished with dinner and a family-friendly place nearby. It was really nice!

mrslucid · May 2011

I got breakfast, flowers, a card and a tshirt that says worlds coolest mom. Ava also took a three hour nap which was really nice.

Me too, H didn't actually give me anything. He doesn't do cards, thinks they're a waste of money. I'm ok with not getting a gift (because I'm cheap), but I could have gone with a nice card from him or G. Or some kind of cheesy inexpensive gift. He gave me a massage tonight after G went to bed. It was nice but he complained the whole time and kept asking if he was done yet.

I have to be honest, I love my H but he sucked at Mother's Day. I feel like he was cranky and kind of a dlck all day. Not only that but I lost half of my Mother's day because my IL's were here this morning so I had to wait for them to leave.

I told him Father's Day is cancelled.

LiLnikkiMe · May 2011

i slept in until 10:30 and woke up to both kids fed and changed. M was already down for her morning nap, and dh took ds out for a stroller ride, picking up some hot fresh bagels on his way back. it was an awesome morning just to veg out and enjoy a cup of coffee!

DH and Maddie gave me a "Queen for a Day" spa gift certificate. It includes a mani/pedi, hair styling, a facial, a 70 minute massage, and a spa lunch. I'm counting down the days left of school so I can go use it. My 2 year old niece called me today and said "Happy Mother's Day Nannie! I love you!" My heart melted. My 1 year old niece gave me a picture frame with a picture of her and I.

Hopefully you got lots of loving from sweet G!

I always forget how awesome my hubby is when he puts effort into something! For Christmas one year I was given ink to a printer we don't own (never owned) and a flashlight!! However, not reflecting that Christmas, for Mother's Day he did well! I got roses and card from him with a home-made type coupon in it for a professional to come clean our house one day!! Yipee! And from Nate there was a card that DH helped him "sign" by tracing his little handprint and a hanging basket of petunias for our front porch. We went to the zoo for the morning and ate lunch together while we were there. Half the laundry was also done without my having to do it! It was a good day!

Serendipity117 · May 2011

I got to sleep in, a couple cards ( the one from O was cute, DH tried to write O's name like a little kid) and a Nookcolor. Super excited about the Nook! Now, hopefully I'll be able to start reading again and this will make our summer reading challenge easier.

OhSewCrafty · May 2011

Okay, seriously. Your new siggy picture is too much!! She is such a cutie!!!

jessrenee11 · May 2011

Aww thank you! She loved the swing, I think we might "have" to go get one now because she was laughing the whole time she was in it!!

She looks like she's having a ball! That might just be a worth while investment.

Moonbeam828 · May 2011

I was really spoiled today. DH got up with DS this morning and took him to the grocery store to get stuff to make me strawberry crepes. I came out to find a card from the two of them and a pot of orange tulips. I got a chance to take a nap and give myself a mani/pedi. We also went ahead and bought a Canon Rebel T3 for "us" (but it's really for me, haha...I have dreamed of owning a 'fancy' camera forever, so having one to take pictures of DS was the perfect reason to go for it). Plus all the texts/phone calls/etc from friends and family wishing me a happy MD, it was so sweet.

elaforgia · May 2011

LaLaaaa, are we married to the same guy!?????? He is also against cards etc. He did manage to get me one, but didn't get me one from G which I really would have liked. I didn't get a gift. I also agree with cancelling Fathers Day. Isn't everyday fathers day???? Any whoo I had my parents and ILs over for brunch which was nice. Then we had a wedding. We just got home and instead of putting G to sleep my mom just held her for hours. Greeeeeaaat. So I'm doing that now then pumping. Today doesn't really feel different from any other day...

I'm with your DHs and totally against cards! I feel like they are so impersonal. I get especially annoyed when I get them and the card-giver has just underlined certain words and then signed the bottom.

If I have to give a card I always buy the $.99 ones. But I usually just use a notecard and write in it myself.

--halo-- · May 2011

I was incredibly surprised by my first Mothers Day. 'Jackson' got me a Kitchenaid stand mixer!! I have wanted one of those since I was 18. lol

DH let me sleep in after a hellish night, and when I got up he called me in the kitchen and had the box sitting in front of Jack like he was holding it. He also made a card from Jack and put the pen in Jack's hand to write it. lol

He did good.

cupcakes710 · May 2011

My DH did a good job. ) I came home yesterday to find a dozen roses, a cupcake and a really sweet card. ) Then today There was a "Thanks Mom for the Gift of Life" silk rose waiting for me on the "breastfeeding table" that he got at church.

I didn't really get to see DH all weekend though so that kind of sucked.... but next weekend my dad is taking everyone out to breakfast to celebrate MD.

ETA: Happy Mother's Day, Dec Mommies!!!

scrh2010 · May 2011

Happy Mother's day to the best bunch of ladies ever!

My day was pretty much a typical day for me. DH had to work all weekend, so yesterday I got to get a new ring sling and diapers for my gifts. Today, I hung out with Robert, then Robert took me out for a cupcake and some coffee at an awesome cupcake shop. Then when DH got off work they took me out for Mexican food. It was a nice day since I got to spend all day with my sweet little boy, but I really wanted to be able to sleep in and be pampered all day!!!

Oh, and I got some, too Wink

welshgirl · May 2011

Hmmm... I have two mother's days (UK and US) and got exactly 2 cards (one from DH on the UK one, and one from my mum yesterday), one bunch of flowers, and nothing else. I would have loved time off, but M eats every 2 hours round the clock, and H doesn't think of things like that, or problem solving to even get me 2 hours alone without kids...

dee12807 · May 2011

I got a gift cert to get my hair done (I've been putting it off b/c I didn't want to spen the money). Oh, I also got a BFP!

xxbabycakesxx · May 2011

didnt get the sleep i wanted lol but i got some tulips and a gift card to my favorite clothing store. and a rose from DHs cousin.

Nicole0012 · May 2011

My Mother's Day kind of sucked, honestly. MY H was originally going to go into the office to study for his PhD candidacy exam that starts next week (which I would have been fine with - I was looking forward to just spending the day with my baby). But, his mom made him feel guilty about it, telling him this was my first Mother's Day and I'll never get another "first" one like it, so he stayed home. Of course, he was in a bad mood, anxious about his exam, and everything was pretty forced. After getting into a fight in the morning, he tried to make it up by making me cinnamon rolls for breakfast. Everything was going fine then, until I decided to take a shower and relax while I got ready for the day, but it apparently lasted too long and he got angry that I was taking too long and wasting the day away. So, that lead to another fight. By the time 3:00 rolled around, we were pretty much over everything, went for a walk, got a quick dinner across the street at a wings restaurant, and called it a night. I would have rather he just went in to the office and I could relax with Miles... A little disappointing, but oh well. Miles slept pretty crappy last night, too, so I feel exhausted today! (Sorry to be a downer... it was a long weekend)

kat81 · May 2011

I got a walk with DS and DH, and an afternoon nap in bed with DS. DH also sort of made dinner last night, but that's not really out of the ordinary (we usually share cooking). DH was SO busy with work this weekend. So he honestly didn't really do anything. DS didn't really help out, either...it was a worse than average two overnights Saturday and Sunday (waking 3ish times). And I did the feedings because DH was seriously so stressed with work. Oh well.

But, the walk was REALLY awesome. The weather was perfect and everything was blooming and it was nice "exercise" (not cardio really but great to get moving.) It was a pretty long walk, too, like 2 hrs or so. The nap was also very sweet and much needed.

I could have written this. We had Annabelle's baptism on Saturday and so we had tons of family staying with us - so I hosted a nice little Mother's Day brunch for everyone yesterday morning. I got potted flowers from my mom and my aunts, a cute gift from my sister, and lots of cards....but nothing at all from DH or "from" DD. I really wanted something from her to keep in a scrapbook and I was really sad that DH didn't acknowledge it. But I'm grateful that I at least got to see so much of my family that morning.

Chick7806 · May 2011

A bead for my pandora bracelet, a trip to the zoo, gift cards to amazon and Starbucks... Some nice cards! It was a great day!

smithpaint · May 2011

I got an Iris from my daughter in preschool and a mug and a cute little book from my daughter in 1st grade. When you have kids in elementary school or preschool you always get a Mother's Day present! I got a card from my mom, sister, stepmom and stepgrandparents. Nothing from DH but that's okay - I told him not to buy me anything.

dueindec2010 · May 2011

I'm always late posting these days but...

I was surprised with a mani and pedi at a local spa with my mom and my SO's mom. It was 2 hours of heavenly bliss that even included some chocolate truffles.

Then it was back to the house to hang out with SO's mom for a bit. She bought some shoes for me and looked after L while I edited some pics for Seniors that I took earlier in the week.

Then I had dinner with lots of my family. My mom, grandma, aunt's and ect were all there. I printed a photo of our 4 generations to give to my mom and gma that had a nice mother's day poem and grandma poem on the bottom. The rest of the evening I just hung out with Lily bug. I'd say it was a great day.

bosha711 · May 2011

I got a white gold necklace charm, earrings with DS's birthstone, breakfast cooked for me & a #1 mama mug w/ DS's pic on it that I asked for, but thought I wasn't getting. Here's a c&p of my post about it from another board:

Yay, I got my mug

I had vented the other day that I told DH that I wanted a #1 mom mug for Mother's day to replace my old favorite mug that I broke & he made a snide remark about me having to "work my way up" to being a #1 mom (jerk!).

Well, today, I got earrings & a charm for a necklace brought to me while I was waking up...then I went out to the dining room where MH had prepared breakfast & surprise, there was my mug- complete w/ a photo of DS on it. I cried like an idiot, lol. I was so happy to get my mug! That's all I really wanted

I hope everyone else has a happy mother's day!

ivlahakis · May 2011

My first Mother's Day was great! : ) DH got me a sewing machine, roses and a sweet card, and LO got me a Coach wristlet and a cute card. DH let me sleep in and then made breakfast, then we had dinner with all the family. But, the best gift of all was a card that LO "made" at daycare - he smeared paint on the card they wrote out, and they hid it with his bottles so I didn't see it until we got home Friday afternoon. It just melted my heart, I love little things like that!

belizeitornot · May 2011

I got a card from DH and one from H. DH made me breakfast, took H all day so I could get some stuff done around the house. He let me order a birthstone necklace that I wanted from Etsy (he never would have been able to figure out what to order on his own) and he got me a magnet that has a pic of me holding H for the first time with a nice note at the bottom. It totally made me cry... so did both of their cards.

I was pretty shocked because DH usually is terrible at the gift giving or making any sort of occasion special but he did a good job for Mother's Day!

Happy Mother's Day to all the lovely Dec. mamas!

JRP00 · May 2011
