Mother’s Day Gift Basket for the New Mom

Mothers Day Gift Basket



As a fairly new mom with a second child due in a couple of weeks, Mother’s Day has definitely been on my brain. So often, we buy the same ole gifts for our Mother’s: jewelry, picture frames with our latest family photo, perfume in her favorite fragrance, etc. This year, I want to do something special. 


Warmer



Several of my friends are having babies this month and next. I thought it would be really fun to fix up a gift basket for these new mothers, full of special and stylish gifts that will help them through those late night feedings, and long sleepy days. No one is more deserving of a little pampering than a new mother. 

Fragrance



Here is what I’m including in the gift baskets:


-Dry Shampoo because, what new mom has time to wash her hair?
-Magazine
-Nail Polish to paint her piggies and hopefully feel more like herself.
–Monroe Mosaic Warmer and Wax Cubes to fill her home with a soothing fragrance and help her relax. Not to mention, they are also posh and stylish and the perfect addition to your home decor.
-Healthy Snacks because breastfeeding makes you hungry All. The. Time.
-Water Bottle to encourage hydration (also important for breastfeeding moms)
-Lotion
-Chapstick
-Hand Sanitizer

Other Options:


-Coffee and Coffee mug because she will be living off of caffeine for the next few months.
-Vitamins
-Good Book
-Face Mask to help with dark circles and those hormone breakouts.  
-A DVD

 

stylish

There is nothing more soothing than a heavenly scent in a home. When the baby is crying and I need a mommy time out, it can be so calming to turn on my Monroe Mosaic Warmer or Whisper ScentSationals Warmer for that immediate fragrance release. There are so many scent options to choose from so depending on your mood or the season, there is a perfect scent for every new mom. The wax is made of superior quality right here in the USA! I just bought “pretty in pink” at Walmart the other day and it has definitely helped this pregnant mama feel more at ease. I went out and bought this scent for my gift baskets because it is just so perfect…and pink.

Mother's-Day



I tried to choose items that will pamper the new mom and help her feel more like herself again. Those first few weeks after giving birth are rough. You feel so tired, gross, sore and just don’t feel like yourself. It takes a while to get back to normal, but it is nice when people acknowledge you, not just your baby.


Another great tip for new mothers would be to bring them a meal. It is so helpful to have food brought to you right after the baby is born. I know I’d love that as a Mother’s day gift this year (hint hint)!


Please note that when using a Mosaic or ScentSationals warmer, you must not lay it on a cloth or unstable surface and must never be used in a child’s room.


What are you getting your mom for Mother’s Day this year? It’s only a month away!

My First Mother’s Day

May 12, 2014

My first Mother’s Day was such a blessing. Hampton and Ryan brought me roses in bed and Hampton gave me a clay print of his tiny little hands. It was the sweetest most thoughtful gift I’ve ever received and I will treasure it forever.

We went to lunch with my mom and spent some time with my family yesterday afternoon which was also a huge blessing. I haven’t spent time with my whole family like that in a while, so it was nice to have everyone together.

While I’ve got you here, feel free to enter this giveaway that I’m a part of hosted by Shana at Organized Chaos. 🙂

Happy Mother’s Day

May 11, 2014

Being a mother has been the biggest blessing of my life. Even through the tough moments, I look at Hampton and still can’t believe he is here. He is all mine! It is bizarre. This little tiny human is my precious baby boy. He brings me such joy. He makes me smile many times a day. My heart has been so full since the day I met him. Being a mother is the hardest thing I’ve ever done, but it’s the best thing. I feel like this is what I was meant to be. This is the journey God meant for me. Motherhood, there’s nothing like it.

Hampton, I will never forget the way you hold my finger while you are eating your bottle, or the way you look up at me with those big brown eyes and smile so big and bright. You melt my heart. I hope I will always remember you as you are now. You have such a kind and gentle temperament and I love to watch you play with your toys and discover new things. You are growing so fast and are so curious. I love you to the moon and back. You are my biggest blessing. I’m so glad God chose me to be your mommy.

Happy Mother’s day to all of the mothers out there! To those expecting their first child, enjoy your day. To those who are trying to start a family and have been unsuccessful, my heart is with you today. Don’t ever give up.

Mother’s Day Gift Ideas

May 2, 2014

Photo by Lauri Ann Photography

I don’t know about you, but I always struggle around this time of year with what to give to my mom and MIL for Mother’s Day. Here is the issue: Their birthdays are about a month and a half after Mother’s Day so I am always thinking if I get them this, what could I give them for their Birthday? Or vice versa. Since I will be celebrating my first mother’s day this year, I have thought up a list of things I wouldn’t mind getting myself. Here are some of my go-tos for MD gifts:

Picture/picture frame. As a mother, I treasure photos of my baby. I know our moms do as well. We just had Hamp’s 6 month pictures done, so you can bet they will be getting one. I know they always enjoy getting updated pictures of our family and the grandbabies.

Flowers. You can’t go wrong with flowers. It is Spring after all and who doesn’t love fresh blooms filling their home?

Spa Day. Treat your mom to a mani/pedi,or a massage. All women love being pampered. Rarely do they splurge on those things for themselves, so it’s nice to receive them as gifts.

Jewelry. You can’t go wrong with jewelry. If you don’t know your mom’s ring size, a necklace is a safe choice.

Gift Cards are a great choice if you are buying for a woman who has everything. They are easy and convenient to pick up. If you are a last minute shopper, this is probably best for you.

Gift Basket. I love putting together gift baskets. For example, I gave my SIL a movie themed gift one year for her birthday with gift certificates to the movie theater, a bag of popcorn, and candy in a plastic pop corn bucket. You can put your own twist on it and cater it to your mom and what she enjoys.

What are you getting your mom for Mother’s Day? What are your go-to gifts?

Birthdays, Baseball, and Graduations

May 15, 2013

The past two weekends have been so exciting and fun for our family. Last weekend we traveled to Auburn for my cousin’s graduation (War Eagle). Zana and I have always been so close. We are not only cousins but we are best friends as well. I am so proud of her and all of her accomplishments.

That Sunday we also celebrated Alex’s senior night at church. She looked absolutely beautiful and had the best table set up. She is officially graduating this Friday, and I know she has been counting down. I can’t believe my baby sister is graduating. Time flies.

This past weekend we celebrated my oldest nephew’s 1st birthday! I can’t believe he is already one. He was JUST born! Tanner had a Dr. Seuss birthday party and if you know me, you know that I LOVE Dr. Seuss! It was so much fun and everything looked adorable. His mamma did a great job!

After the party, we enjoyed a night of baseball with some friends. It was such a nice night for baseball.
On Sunday we celebrated Mother’s Day with our moms! I have the best mother in the world, and I have been blessed with a wonderful mother-in-law. We enjoyed some great food and family time. My sister-in-law even gave me my first Mother’s Day present! It was so sweet and thoughtful. I hope you were all blessed to spend Mother’s Day with your moms. 
Mom and me on my wedding day.
