Mothers Day.....what are your plans and gifts?

I decided i would like to spend the day w/ just DH and DS and then inviting in laws and my parents for cake/coffee after. Cant decide if i want to go for breakfast or an early dinner. Not doing brunch bc im not big on buffets (i am a picky eater, so not worth the money) and most places are doing brunch buffets.

Gift- no idea. DH says he has ideas

Re: Mothers Day.....what are your plans and gifts?

We are going to brunch (me, DH, DS, Dev, her DH, Joey, our parents, brother and Nana) at the Milk and Sugar Cafe. Then we are heading to my ILs for a BBQ later.

My DH got me some coveted items from Sephora and a surprise he wont tell me about (obviously).

Me, my sis and brother are chipping in and getting my mom a flip.

Dont know what Im getting my MIL.

Re: Mothers Day.....what are your plans and gifts?

Just spending it with DH and DS. Chat Icon We might BBQ, but I really just wanted the day with them.

I am making my MIL and grandma in law brunch another day, and probably getting them flowers.

I got my mom a nice robe and slippers and will make my Grandma up a food basket or her favorite treats.

Are standard Mothers day plans are: on Saturday we go to see DH's mom and grandmother in Manhattan and have lunch in their apt. On Sunday we go with my mom and siblings to Planting fields arboretum and out to lunch at a vegetarian asian fusion place.

As for gifts, I have no earthly idea what to get DH for father's day. He already got part of my gift last week (a new 20 piece knife block that I have been wanting forever!).

I want an initial necklace as a gift. I send DH the link to the one I like, we'll see if I get it or not.

We're going to brunch with ILs - I'd rather spend it alone being it's my first one but, we usually go to brunch with them. Not sure what we're doing with my parents. They may come to visit on Saturday.

Re: Mothers Day.....what are your plans and gifts?

No gifts. I'll be happy with a card from my son.

If it's nice, I'd like to go for a walk in a park with DH and DS, play on the swings with DS....

I want a quiet, restful, relaxing day with just my husband and my son.

Usually DH and the kids make me breakfast (cereal with fruit Chat Icon ) and then we just hang out, go to the park. My mom will come by at some point and DH calls MIL with the kids.

As far as gifts, we usually send some kind of flowers to MIL, and I take the kids to Target and they pick out something for my mom and then DH will take them there the day before to each pick out a gift for me. Usually DD picks some really gaudy piece of costume jewelry and DS gets me socks. Chat Icon

My DH husband works he is in the restaurant business so I will probably spend it with my mom and dad and as for a gift I would just like a little something maybe a pretty necklace.....because when DC #2 comes here in October ...my DH knows I want to get my chest redone and a little work done around my eyes....I know you girls think that is crazy but that is what i want!

We're having a mid afternoon BBQ here for dinner. Probably around 3pm with in laws and my mom and SIL and BIL.
We usually give gift cards or money to our moms.
I am not asking for anything because I just bought my BOB stroller and that was $$$$.

Re: Mothers Day.....what are your plans and gifts?

no clue what we are doing-- but I do know it will not involve me sitting in traffic on the LIE. We had people here last year, and maybe we'll do the same since I still have a baby who naps twice a day and no family is really close.

As for gifts, I am already using my new MacBook!

Re: Mothers Day.....what are your plans and gifts?

I accidentally agreed to take free Mets tix from a coworker without realizing that it was Mother's Day, so I guess we are going to a Mets Game!

Not a huge fan, but it doesn't matter as long as it's a nice day and I get to spend time with DS and DH.

maybe stop by MIL's for dinner. Not sure yet, but definitely no gifts!

We'll probably do brunch alone and dinner with my family although that may get flpped depending on my brother's schedule.

As for gifts, I told DH I REALLY want a laptop as a combo mother's day/bday gift bc our computer is in our basement and with a toddler and soon to be newborn, I'll never get on it.

Re: Mothers Day.....what are your plans and gifts?

I am inviting my mom, sister, grandma,sis and mil (along with the men) over for breakfast. I was going to try to do a nice "spread" (crepes, pancakes, eggs, fruit, bacon, bagels, muffins ect). Then my mom is going to stay for the day and help me plant flowers in my backyard (if the weather is nice). I was hoping everyone would leave in the afternoon so just my DH, DS and myself could go out for an early dinner or something (nothing too fancy prob something quick in town).

As for gifts..I have no idea! I'm sure my hubby will just do something small and sweetChat Icon

Probably breakfast with my inlaws.
Then we visit the cemetary in Calverton (my mom).
Dinner at my dads with my family.
We do a combo Mother's Day/My Bday dinner (my birthday is the day after).
I LOVE it, but, do feel bad my sister does a lot of cooking when she should be celebrating Mother's Day as well.
I'll take her out during the week Chat Icon


As far as gift? I truly have no idea.
I got my Mommy's Necklace already.
I really don't know.Chat Icon
LOL but I'll think of something!
