Mother's Day

I've been starting to think about MOther's Day lately since it's only in a few weeks, and is it wrong of me to not expect anything too thoughtful from DH/Ty? I have this sneaking suspicion that my H will totally forget about MD until like 3 days before. Is is wrong of me to start laying hints? Not that I want anything elaborate, but I want to know that he thought about it in advance, and put some consideration in to it, if that makes sense. I mean, you only get 1 first mothers day, I want it to be special!!

Re: Mother's Day
I'm thinking I just want to at least remind him, without flat out telling him, that mother's day is coming up! I may send him some links online and be like "for your mom for Mother's day?
If I flat out say "Reminder that mother's day is in a few weeks..." he'll be like "oh, I have plenty of time" and definitely forget until 3 days before when his mom asks him what "ty" got me! He's pretty scatterbrained when it comes to dates

Yeah, I just sent him an email! I was legitimately looking up a gift I thought of for his mom which reminded me. Let's see if that "hint" works!
Now, I gotta think about what to get my mom. Her birthday was just a few weeks ago so it's hard since she just got a bunch of stuff she wanted.
Hopefully he remembers that I have a wish list on our Amazon account that I just added a few things to!! I might also say something to SIL to ask him about what he's getting me when she gets back from vacay. I'm going to do the same to her DH because I guarantee he'll forget. He forgot her birthday last year and she had to buy her own gift. That would have been an easy year to get her something too because their DD was born 3 weeks earlier!
AH, love this idea!!! Right now my wishlist is called "Angie's Wishlist" but maybe I'll change it to "Angie & Ty". We used to have separate Amazon accounts when I had the free Prime with Amazon mom, but I don't anymore, so we're back down to one master account that we use with the prime, which is under his account.
I was able to easily bring it up since DH's cousin is getting married on that Saturday. I told him I didn't want to stay the night and spend my first Mother's Day in po-dunk Arkansas. If it were any other, whatever, but the first one I want to be home because it's special. So hopefully he picked up on it
I say mention it to him. Something like, "Are we going to brunch on MD, or should I plan a meal?"
