Mother’s Day Soon!

May 5th, 2009

So, it is mother’s day in *looks at date* just five days time. I hope that you already have your plans taken care of, what will you be doing for your Mother? What sort of gift will you give?

Me? I am a flowers mothers day kinda girl, she absolutely loves flowers and I have checked and double checked and she says she’ll never get bored of them. In the last few years I have taken to getting her a little something something else as well so as to maintain the surprise element of the day – usually something totally random and not a traditional mothers day gift. Like last year I got her an apron that she wanted (yes, she really requested an apron lol) and the year before some plant seeds.

My flowers are already ordered paid for and waiting to be delivered on the day, but I kind of wish they weren’t because I just came across 1800Flowers.com and they have some absolutely gorgeous selections at really affordable prices. I know people who have used them in the past and they tell me that they are super reliable and great quality also. So if you aren’t as on the ball as me and have not yet ordered something for your mother, head on over there :)

Tents? No thanks.

Why are maternity clothes usually so darned ugly? Like all pregnant women want to drown themselves in a tent?

Some women want to still look sexy and gorgeous and are proud to show off that baby bump, my sister in law was certainly like that and she spent forever trying to find something nice to wear for a wedding when she was 7 months gone!

Wish I had known about Kiki’s Fashions then, not only do they have some really nice pieces they are also really cheap for maternity clothes plus you can get an additional 20% off your order by using coupon code ‘blogfriends’ at check out, lovely.
