Last year our daycare had a whole special lunch for grandparents, but I haven't seen anything this year. If it's this weekend, LO is going to have to be forced into craft activity tomorrow night! Yipes!! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-you-doing-anything-for-grandparents-day#post-1069241 Thu, 05 Sep 2013 23:00:15 +0000 mrskc 1069241@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My calendar says it's the 8th. Maybe I'll make a card for them with DS's hand prints or something. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-you-doing-anything-for-grandparents-day#post-1069148 Thu, 05 Sep 2013 22:04:59 +0000 wonderstruck 1069148@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Nope. Our dads get grandpa stuff too on Father's Day, same for our moms on Mother's Day. And I don't feel like it's necessary to do twice in one year. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-you-doing-anything-for-grandparents-day#post-1069011 Thu, 05 Sep 2013 21:07:42 +0000 lovebird 1069011@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I made cards on treat.com </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-you-doing-anything-for-grandparents-day#post-1068944 Thu, 05 Sep 2013 20:48:14 +0000 LovelyPlum 1068944@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@creativemomma15: @oliviaoblivia: @MrsF: thanks! </p> <p>It was DH's idea...I actually had no idea it was this week. He was sad we had already told our parents (I'm 9 weeks), but since things went well at my u/s today, we told siblings and are going to tell his grandparents. Not my grandmothers, though...they are very, very talkative, so they won't know for two more weeks, until we're ready for more people (ie everyone) to know! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-you-doing-anything-for-grandparents-day#post-1068572 Thu, 05 Sep 2013 19:41:08 +0000 MrsF 1068572@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We're going to be with 4 out of 5 grandparents (M has one step-grandma) on Sunday. I'll have to think about cards!</p> <p>@LovelyPlum: That's great! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-you-doing-anything-for-grandparents-day#post-1068567 Thu, 05 Sep 2013 19:39:54 +0000 regberadaisy 1068567@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yup, last year I got them a card and made each of them a flipbook. I don't think they even knew there was such a day! LOL</p> <p>Time kinda slipped away from me this year! They'll be coming over Sunday for the home opener so might have to DIY something. Sha-et, LO came home with a watercolor "painting" yesterday too and I chucked it. Should've saved it and could have used it to create a "grandparent" frame! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-you-doing-anything-for-grandparents-day#post-1068565 Thu, 05 Sep 2013 19:39:32 +0000 oliviaoblivia 1068565@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@LovelyPlum: awesome! I'm glad you're not my sister cause my ecard is going to look pretty lame next to your BFP! Congrats! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-you-doing-anything-for-grandparents-day#post-1068553 Thu, 05 Sep 2013 19:37:55 +0000 creativemomma15 1068553@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@LovelyPlum: What a great way to celebrate! :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-you-doing-anything-for-grandparents-day#post-1068550 Thu, 05 Sep 2013 19:37:34 +0000 creativemomma15 1068550@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@oliviaoblivia: @BabyBoecksMom: This is how I was last year, I got lucky that I remembered this year. It is easier for us since our parents are all local so we can do something simple last minute without worrying about mailing anything! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-you-doing-anything-for-grandparents-day#post-1068548 Thu, 05 Sep 2013 19:37:21 +0000 LovelyPlum 1068548@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Telling DH's grandparents that they're going to be great grandparents! :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-you-doing-anything-for-grandparents-day#post-1068545 Thu, 05 Sep 2013 19:36:41 +0000 Mrs. High Heels 1068545@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I didn't know there was a grandparents day!!

I felt bad :( I think DS will make a card and maybe I will print a cute current picture for them each as a small gift. @prettylizy: time with grandkids totally counts to celebrate! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-you-doing-anything-for-grandparents-day#post-1068456 Thu, 05 Sep 2013 19:18:46 +0000 prettylizy 1068456@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I didn't even know that it was a thing! lol! My IL's are watching E for the day/night tomorrow so maybe their gift is a sleepover with her! lol! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-you-doing-anything-for-grandparents-day#post-1068452 Thu, 05 Sep 2013 19:18:14 +0000 mrsbookworm 1068452@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I didn't even realize it was grandparents' day.

Not sure if we will do a small gift or not.</p> <p>Do you do anything for your parents on grandparents day? </p>
