I bought her gold earrings. She helps me a lot with the baby. I also got her a really cute wind chime for her new porch.

I'm actually more clueless for father's day than mother's day! Chat Icon

I got this from personalizationmall.com. You can change it to Grandma and personalize it with a picture that gets printed on the frame.

Re: What are you getting YOUR mom for M'day??

My mom never does anything for herself ever. She has devoted her whole self to our family especially dd so I wanted to do something nice for her. I'm taking her out on Saturday to get a hair cut (she hasn't had one in almost a year), and a mani pedi. I also got her some books, and I'm giving her flats of flowers for her garden

Ooooh my mom, my mom

She does so much for us. . .

and yet

If I got her pictures, she would get annoyed b/c she had to dust them. She wants one updated picture of each grandchild displayed thankyouverymuch -- she would rather see them in person than see them clutter up her living room.

If I got her jewelry, she would keep it in her jewelry box forever. She has been wearing the same rings, earrings, necklaces, bracelets and watch for as long as I can remember.

If I got her a GC to a spa, she would hate that someone had to touch her, that's disgusting!

If I got her money or a GC to a store, she would find a way to spend it on us or the grandkids.

If I got her flowers, she would yell at me for wasting my money on something that was going to die.

Sigh, I am getting her chocolate.

WOw this kinda sounds like my mom... especially the spa part, she is such a prude that she would ask to get the massage fully clothed, LMAO.

Anyway, we are taking her out for lunch at Hibachi. Also, we'll be bringin over homemade chocolate covered strawberries for dessert later.

We started a new tradition 2 years ago where we either get massages or mani/pedis and then go to lunch. This year we're doing mani/pedis together.

Re: What are you getting YOUR mom for M'day??

my sister, brother and I chipped in for a kindle for her. We gave it to her already because my brother has a wedding on mother's day weekend and won't be here. On actual mother's day, I'll give her some photos of DD.

I might get her a pandora charm with DD's birthstone. She recently got a bracelet and doesn't have many charms. I'm also giving her pics of DD.
Maybe something else...I need to get on it.

firstly, i am your mother. Chat Icon
secondly, i can only hope my children/husband are as understanding as you some day.


My Mom is getting a stepping stone (kit from Red Envelope) with Logan's hand or foot prints on it. I haven't decided yet- i'm making it tonight. Similar to this one, but the plaster is white and the glass is sea glass.

and this custom necklace from SayWhatCreations on etsy - 10% of all of her April proceeds were donated to Sophia's Cure! (Logan's favorite things: Grandma, hugs, and cookies!)

Re: What are you getting YOUR mom for M'day??

I do her garden every spring for mother's day. I buy the plants/flowers, plant them and when I get a chance go over them and weed them etc. We don't have a house and I love gardening, so its great for me to have a plot of land to do it in. And she loves it too.
