I definitely like spending some alone time with my DH and DC for Mother's Day. Last year my mom invited us and my IL's on the Saturday of Mother's Day. Then on Sunday I just spent the day with my DH and DC.

Re: Mother's Day spinoff...Alone, or with extended family?

last year was my first year with my dd and i celebrated mothers day with my mom on saturday and with dh's mom on sunday.
this year i will rotate it. my mom will get the sunday and dh's mom will get the saturday.

really, its all about honoring moms. i dont need to be alone.. i wouldnt want to not treat my mom to a special day simply b.c i am a mom now.

i look at it as eventually, someday,hopefully not anywhere near soon, i wont have a mom to celebrate mother's day...

I would LOVE to just spend it with DH and DS but I know that won't happen. My mom will be royally offended. I will spend it with everyone on one condition - that they come here to my house in NJ and we don't have to go to NY!

Morning is just us, but we do have dinner with my family. DH's mom is in Texas. I really don't mind it because we always have a blast. I am really excited that this Mother's day we will have two little girls, although my DD#2 will only be a few weeks old. Not sure what we will end up doing.

We make rounds. Breakfast and a quiet morning just us, lunch with my mom, dinner with my MIL. Or Dinner with MIL and dessert with mom.

It has its perks though. I never have to cook and we don't have to wait on crazy lines to eat dinner in a packed restaurant!

Although i always WANT it to be just immediate family, I could never do that to the grandmas. So of course we are going oppisite directions to spend time with each. SO much for a relaxing day for me, btu I would be too guilty the other way.
