MIL gift?

joyfullyfound · September 2013

Oh, you guys, I'm totally stumped on MIL's b-day gift! I have no idea what she'd like, and with the early pregnancy fatigue, I barely care whether we get her one or not.

So, anyone come up with a good gift for the women in your life lately? Our budget is about $50 bucks. She's a health food freak, an undiagnosed hypochondric, a fervent Christian, adores her granddaughter, and really has no hobbies to speak of other than worrying about everything and being perpetually sick.

Ideas?

I agree with PP. I made a shutterfly book of pictures from DDs photo shoot and on some pages I put quotes about grandmothers and graddaughters. She would have carried that thing around in her purse if it would have fit. She loved it, and loved that it was made just for her.

I did a shutterfly book for her last Christmas, so I'd like to do something new. I think the pjs are a good idea, but FIL and MIL are very vocal about the benefits of sleeping nude (shudder).

Gross! It's one thing to sleep naked, it's a whole different level of wrong to be old, sleep naked AND be very vocal about it.

Not only to they constantly talk about sleeping naked, they're also very open about their great love of spooning :-O

Those are all just terrible images and I've never even seen your inlaws lol. On a positive note, DH told me last week that you burn more calories if you sleep naked.

If they sleep nude...maybe she'd appreciate some fantastic sheets?

Ha! Or maybe really itchy ones to discourage it?

I bought my MIL bath soaps & bubble bath from Anthropologie.

We spent around $50 for a few items.
