My only request was that I didn't have to cook from Friday to Monday and my wish was granted! It was so nice...I HATE cooking. I also got cards from my husband and daughter, some flowers, three gigantic bags of different candy that I love. Well, actually only two, the third bag was my husbands favorite candy that I don't like. I laughed when I saw it. And I also got a necklace and a bracelet. It was an awesome first Mother's Day. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-did-you-get-for-mothers-day/page/2#post-159561 Tue, 15 May 2012 17:18:09 +0000 Honeybee 159561@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I got a Bocci Ball set! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-did-you-get-for-mothers-day/page/2#post-159248 Tue, 15 May 2012 13:45:56 +0000 lavender 159248@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>DD gave me two presents: 8 hrs of sleep for the first time..then DH bought her to bed for me than gave me her second present: being puked on in bed by her!

Who can say no to a pimped out closet space. ;) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-did-you-get-for-mothers-day/page/2#post-157987 Mon, 14 May 2012 13:32:21 +0000 pastemoo 157987@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@jessiejo17: That is so sweet! I need to get my mom and mani/pedi again. She;s only ever had 2. One the day before my wedding because I asked her to come with me and the "girls" (bridesmaids, friends, grandmother, etc)... and another around her birthday after realizing (at over 55 years old!) that they're pretty awesome!<br /> @mrs stroller: Mr S for the win!! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-did-you-get-for-mothers-day/page/2#post-157972 Mon, 14 May 2012 13:22:56 +0000 LuLu Mom 157972@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>For my mom we had a bracelet made that had each of our family memeber's names on a silver circle, there is room to add more as the family grows. </p> <p>For my MIL we got her a manicure/pedicure at her favorite place because she never pampers herself, she loved it! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-did-you-get-for-mothers-day/page/2#post-157948 Mon, 14 May 2012 13:07:05 +0000 Mrs. Stroller 157948@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Mr. S changed the baby and brought him to bed in the AM so baby S could have his breakfast in bed. While I nursed Mr. S made me a huge breakfast. When I came downstairs there were two orchids and two leis from his recent trip to Hawaii laid out in heart shapes on the coffee table with coffee, OJ, a card that he made from baby S and breakfast. After nap we went to the farmer's market together then we all took and afternoon nap together - Mr. S put the baby down so I could lay down right away - then we dropped by daycare to give baby S's daycare umma flowers and a card and then we went out for ice cream. When we got home Mr. S washed our cars while I played with the baby, and then he made me dinner after baby S went to sleep. He also bought me a silver bracelet that we'll engrave with baby S's birth date. It was a wonderful day!</p> <p>OH! I almost forgot, Mr. S also re-did my entire closet for me as a gift. He took everything out, painted it then reconfigured all the shelves, etc. so it's a more useable configuration. I was sooooooo grateful!! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-did-you-get-for-mothers-day/page/2#post-157850 Mon, 14 May 2012 11:41:53 +0000 roccoandkirby 157850@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>DH made breakfast and got me a card and a glider for our nursery.

He also got me a card from him thanking me for all I do for our family. My youngest LO got me a teddy bear and my oldest LO got me some chocolates. They both also made me things at school.<br /> I made brunch with my mom at our house earlier in the day and then we went and visited with my inlaws.<br /> It was a good day. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-did-you-get-for-mothers-day/page/2#post-157800 Mon, 14 May 2012 10:58:36 +0000 Nskillet 157800@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Mrs Green Grass: Ahhhh!

I am thrilled, I love it (and it was on clearance!) haha </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-did-you-get-for-mothers-day/page/2#post-157669 Mon, 14 May 2012 09:07:16 +0000 Rock n Roll 157669@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My husband cleaned my car and made me lunch.

Beautiful bag. Love it! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-did-you-get-for-mothers-day/page/2#post-157654 Mon, 14 May 2012 08:59:34 +0000 Mrs. Yoyo 157654@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@blushink: The Storksak Elizabeth. I love it because it doesn't look like a diaper bag at all. I actually totally ruined the surprise a week ago when I randomly Googled it and saw that it was on Sale for like $100 off at Saks. I asked Papa Y if I should get it, and he started acting all weird, and finally admitted he'd already gotten it for me. So we sent that one back and got it cheaper, ha ha! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-did-you-get-for-mothers-day/page/2#post-157649 Mon, 14 May 2012 08:53:58 +0000 Mrs. Sunglasses 157649@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Mrs. Yoyo: how sweet!!! Which bag? I've been eyeing the Kate Spade diaper bag but will NEVER get that. :/ </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-did-you-get-for-mothers-day/page/2#post-157637 Mon, 14 May 2012 08:47:50 +0000 Mrs. Yoyo 157637@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Papa Y got me a designer diaper bag that I have been checking out for a long time -- I think he knew I would never never get it for myself because it's hard for me to splurge like that. I also got a cute picture frame that says "mom + dad = me" with pictures of all three of us "from" Baby Y. We all had brunch, and I got to SLEEP IN. Best present of all! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-did-you-get-for-mothers-day/page/2#post-157490 Mon, 14 May 2012 07:10:14 +0000 regberadaisy 157490@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I got a combo 30th birthday present/Mother's Day gift. 3/4 carat diamond studs. :) Our LO's birthstone, of course she had to sneak out for the expensive birthstone. :P</p> <p>@chopsuey119:<br /> yay! for dimsum! Now that's a man that loves his baby's mama! ;) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-did-you-get-for-mothers-day/page/2#post-157485 Mon, 14 May 2012 07:05:57 +0000 Andrea 157485@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@blushink: He took care of Mavi so that is good but saying those 3 words obviously mean a lot to you, too! It is not too late. I would say something today about being hurt. Maybe he has his own reasoning behind it? Either way, if it was me, I would bring it up! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-did-you-get-for-mothers-day/page/2#post-157483 Mon, 14 May 2012 07:01:48 +0000 Mrs. Sunglasses 157483@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Andrea: yes he knew it was mother's day! ha.<br /> I don't know... maybe I should of said something. I don't make a big deal of father's day, but I do tell him how great a father he is and make him breakfast. I actually got up to take care of Mavi, but once the hubs got up he took over which was nice. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-did-you-get-for-mothers-day/page/2#post-157477 Mon, 14 May 2012 06:55:30 +0000 Andrea 157477@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>That sucks that he didn't wish you Happy Mother's Day?? He knew it was yesterday, right?</p> <p>We don't do gifts either (not that I would turn one down!). DH did get me cards, let me get some extra sleep, cooked all day and took care of the LO. I went to get a mani/pedi and did not have to do too much else yesterday. It was a nice break so I'll definitely take that as my gift. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-did-you-get-for-mothers-day/page/2#post-157470 Mon, 14 May 2012 06:19:30 +0000 Mrs. Sunglasses 157470@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Mrsdaredevil: maybe he will do something after baby arrives? But then again mothers day is over. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-did-you-get-for-mothers-day/page/2#post-157469 Mon, 14 May 2012 06:18:54 +0000 Mrs. Sunglasses 157469@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Mrsdaredevil: Egh! I'm so sorry. But trust me I know how you feel. It sucks. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-did-you-get-for-mothers-day/page/2#post-157447 Mon, 14 May 2012 05:21:25 +0000 pastemoo 157447@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Mrsdaredevil: Aww, I was irritated too, and not even as close as you. Not cool. :( </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-did-you-get-for-mothers-day/page/2#post-157439 Mon, 14 May 2012 04:29:11 +0000 bpcmarj 157439@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>DH got me a very sweet card, and so did our 6 day old baby girl ;) My Mom is still in town until Tuesday, so she came and hung out with me and brought me a card and some cookies. DH got pizza and cheesecake for us for dinner. My Dad sent a text message, and also texted DH to remind him that it was my first Mothers day and not to forget. Hahaha </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-did-you-get-for-mothers-day/page/2#post-157438 Mon, 14 May 2012 04:16:05 +0000 oliviaoblivia 157438@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Mrsdaredevil: that doesn't sound selfish at all. Happy Mother's Day. I hope you are doing well and get to see the baby soon! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-did-you-get-for-mothers-day/page/2#post-157437 Mon, 14 May 2012 03:58:35 +0000 Rainbow Sprinkles 157437@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>II hope this does not sound selfish of me, but I was kind of irritated that my husband didn't even acknowledge mother's day. I am assuming since our baby hasn't arrived yet he didn't think he needed to....but geez, I was getting induced that night, doesnt that count for something? We ended up cooking for our own moms and then heading to the hospital. He could have at least said happy mothers day to me! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-did-you-get-for-mothers-day/page/2#post-157434 Mon, 14 May 2012 02:07:34 +0000 His Barista 157434@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I got a bracelet "from" DD with her name and dh made chicken cordon blu with potatoes and cheesy broccoli. : ) he also brought her to see me at work. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-did-you-get-for-mothers-day/page/2#post-157431 Mon, 14 May 2012 01:27:48 +0000 GrapeCrush 157431@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>DH got me a little diamond heart necklace with an little emerald inside of the heart for DS birthstone. Originally he was going to get me an emerald ring, but he didn't like any of them,<br /> So he and the jeweler came up with this. And it's nice that we always go to the same girl because it had to be customized<br /> And she pushed it to the front of the line do it would be ready for me for mothers day. We can add more stones to it as well if we have more kids. Also, the jeweler helped significantly with the cost of it </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-did-you-get-for-mothers-day/page/2#post-157427 Mon, 14 May 2012 00:31:04 +0000 Boogs 157427@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Rubies: :( I'm sorry, poo on him! </p>
