Especially the Mac, Clarisonic, ballet flats, and gift cards!</p> <p>My 25th birthday was a few months ago, and I talked DH into finally letting me get rear speakers and a center channel for our surround sound system! Thought typically that's more of a guy's gift, we're backwards - I'm the techie, and since I sell high end home theater equipment I have fairly expensive taste. But for non-tech related gifts...there's always a million things I want from Sephora. Cute clothes and/or accessories are good too. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-do-you-want-for-your-birthday/page/2#post-897860 Mon, 01 Jul 2013 09:16:29 +0000 regberadaisy 897860@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Family photo shoot. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-do-you-want-for-your-birthday/page/2#post-897848 Mon, 01 Jul 2013 09:14:29 +0000 Mrs. Lemon-Lime 897848@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@MrsBrewer: Happy Birthday :happy: </p> <p>@char54: Happy Birthday :happy: </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-do-you-want-for-your-birthday/page/2#post-897832 Mon, 01 Jul 2013 09:12:16 +0000 Mrs. Lemon-Lime 897832@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Mrs. Jacks: Happy belated Birthday! :happy: </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-do-you-want-for-your-birthday/page/2#post-897696 Mon, 01 Jul 2013 08:26:00 +0000 MrsBrewer 897696@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@LovelyPlum: awww thank you!!</p> <p>I would say more clothes. I hate picking out clothes for myself! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-do-you-want-for-your-birthday/page/2#post-897478 Mon, 01 Jul 2013 06:59:00 +0000 evenstar982 897478@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My birthday is 10 days after my due date... So I'd like a baby for mine! ;-)</p> <p>But in all seriousness...<br /> - remote trigger for my DSLR<br /> - some nice clothes for my post-partum body<br /> - to spend the day with my DH / family and not have to worry about where any meals come from for 24 hours, sounds like bliss to me!</p> <p>I turned 30 last year and DH took me on holiday for a week and we just chilled out and enjoyed some alone-time, but that was pre-baby so this year I'm keeping my desires a bit simpler! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-do-you-want-for-your-birthday/page/2#post-897414 Mon, 01 Jul 2013 06:04:07 +0000 heartonastring 897414@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My birthday's in three weeks and the only things I can think of are a DSLR or a new diaper bag. Oh, or money that I can put toward my gym membership, as after August my income will go down a lot (mat leave top up runs out). </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-do-you-want-for-your-birthday/page/2#post-897373 Mon, 01 Jul 2013 04:21:35 +0000 Boheme 897373@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I want a new DSLR. If not, a pedicure and a few hours of uninterrupted sleep would hit the spot! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-do-you-want-for-your-birthday/page/2#post-897320 Mon, 01 Jul 2013 01:50:00 +0000 lamariniere 897320@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@NorCalWayfarer: that's an awesome idea. I just got a Dutch bike myself. If you don't happen to find any in Holland, Specialized makes really pretty ones (that's where I got mine), and Linus seems to have some cool options as well. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-do-you-want-for-your-birthday/page/2#post-897318 Mon, 01 Jul 2013 01:47:51 +0000 lamariniere 897318@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@char54: happy birthday, and that is an awesome gift! </p> <p>My birthday isn't until November, and usually I just want flowers and champagne, but I'll be pregnant on this birthday. I was online wallet shopping last night for a medium-fancy wallet and I found a few that I liked and DH said I should wait for my birthday, which is fine with me. I never have birthday gift ideas for me until after the fact. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-do-you-want-for-your-birthday/page/2#post-897289 Mon, 01 Jul 2013 00:31:27 +0000 NorCalWayfarer 897289@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Mrs. Jacks, @char54: Happy birthday!</p> <p>My birthday isn't for a few more months but I want a Dutch bike. We happen to be going to the Netherlands in October so I'm hoping I can pick one out then and have it shipped back home! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-do-you-want-for-your-birthday/page/2#post-897278 Mon, 01 Jul 2013 00:08:18 +0000 LovelyPlum 897278@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@char54: happy birthday to you, too!

It's my birthday in a week so I'll play along. I just want socks. I always ask for socks and I never get them. I don't know why. Or a fourth cat... </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-do-you-want-for-your-birthday/page/2#post-897053 Sun, 30 Jun 2013 20:55:16 +0000 IRunForFun 897053@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>A DLSR! But my birthday isn't until September, and we're getting married 2 weeks before it. I imagine neither of us will be wanting to spend any money at that point. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-do-you-want-for-your-birthday/page/2#post-897012 Sun, 30 Jun 2013 20:26:15 +0000 Mrs. Pen 897012@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Heels! I have had two pairs break this month :( boooo. Something fun but versatile and comfortable.</p> <p>Also a food processor, a bike and new makeup from the Origins line. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-do-you-want-for-your-birthday/page/2#post-897002 Sun, 30 Jun 2013 20:21:32 +0000 aprk 897002@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My 30th birthday is soon, too. We don't do big presents - my husband always gets me a card and usually something small like lottery tickets, which we like for a fun giggle. This year we are taking a road trip to see our families and our friends from back home are throwing us a get together to meet the baby. So it doubles as a birthday party! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-do-you-want-for-your-birthday#post-897000 Sun, 30 Jun 2013 20:21:09 +0000 Mrs. Oatmeal 897000@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My birthday's not until November, but I would love either an inital/birthstone necklace for new baby, or a DSLR so I'm not just snapping iPhone pics for her entire life. We'll see! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-do-you-want-for-your-birthday#post-896994 Sun, 30 Jun 2013 20:17:03 +0000 travelgirl1 896994@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Mrs. Jacks: Happy Birthday! :happy: </p> <p>My birthday is in just over a week and I want a DSLR but we'll see.... I also want a work permit so we can stay in Canada and a ring with A's name on it but DH thinks it would be too tacky :sad: boo. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-do-you-want-for-your-birthday#post-896953 Sun, 30 Jun 2013 19:54:15 +0000 Maysprout 896953@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Mrs. Jacks: @char54: Happy Birthday!</p> <p>I just had a birthday too and bought myself a nicer camera than I would have since my other stopped working (I said it was for mothers day/birthday/lots of things present). DH had to be away most of the month, we'd meet up on weekends but it was a lot of driving, so the weekend before my birthday we met up at a hotel and had a great time eating out and doing lots of outdoorsy stuff - just the 3 of us weekend away was such a treat. And my mom came up since I was all alone at home then for my actual birthday and watched LO while I started cleaning out baby's room and got me this cute peach dress I saw at BR on clearance for $20, it fit over my pregnant belly so I was excited about it. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-do-you-want-for-your-birthday#post-896938 Sun, 30 Jun 2013 19:46:51 +0000 avivoca 896938@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Mrs. Jacks: Happy Birthday!</p> <p>For my birthday, I would like to not be in labor OR just starting labor. LO is due the next day. Other than that, I think I would like a gift certificate for a pedicure. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-do-you-want-for-your-birthday#post-896906 Sun, 30 Jun 2013 19:31:32 +0000 Charm54 896906@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My birthday was yesterday and DH surprised me with a DSLR camera. I was so pumped, now I can take pictures of our baby when he/she makes their arrival in September! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-do-you-want-for-your-birthday#post-896882 Sun, 30 Jun 2013 19:02:32 +0000 Mrs. Jacks 896882@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@MrsBrewer: good birthday!

My birthday is a little over a month away and have NO idea! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-do-you-want-for-your-birthday#post-896878 Sun, 30 Jun 2013 19:00:03 +0000 T-Mom 896878@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Mrs. Jacks: happy birthday!</p> <p>My bday is in two weeks and DH has been asking me as well. I really don't have any ideas... The things I want seem too expensive when I think about it being my money too, even if he buys it. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-do-you-want-for-your-birthday#post-896870 Sun, 30 Jun 2013 18:55:39 +0000 heffalump 896870@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>New make-up. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-do-you-want-for-your-birthday#post-896850 Sun, 30 Jun 2013 18:41:01 +0000 MrsBrewer 896850@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Mrs. Jacks: happy birthday!
