Any suggestions for a good gift from a loving husband?

Lucy · 05-06-2002 12:58 PM

Women always like gifts that make us feel pretty. In the case of expecting mothers (especially those getting close to term), this is even more welcome. How about a gift certificate for a manicure/pedicure and/or facial at a local spa? <img border="0" title="" alt="[Smile]" src="smile.gif" />

Did I miss a pre-birth announcement? Congrats! When's the big day? Wow, new little Terp fans all over the place.

I second Lucy's suggestions for pampering, if that's what she's into. Personally, I'm not into manicures/pedicures, but you would know if that's something she would like or not. Some places also do pregnancy massage, that's more up my alley. Jewelry is always nice. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="biggrin.gif" /> Something with the likely birthstone of the baby, maybe? How about picture frames? I have a cute one that says "I love my mommy" from Baby #1. And a good mushy card is required.

If I can come up with anything else, I'll let you know.

Congrats again, and give my regards to the mom-to be. Sorry, I can't remember her name. Dang!

thanks for the suggestions!

I think I'll take a trip down to this jewelry store tomorrow during lunch. My wife is a bit particular about jewelry & doesn't wear much...but just saturday she said she wish she had more. If I don't see something I think she'll like, I'll get her a day at a spa.

Julester,

The big day is October 3rd. If the baby is a little late, we'll have 3 scorpios driving each other nuts! <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="biggrin.gif" /> Thanks for the good thoughts! I'll pass them along to Melissa.

Your Scorpio wife would like to be spoiled for a change. She just seems totally independent. Wait on her. Fix meals. Give her that massage yourself. Give her a nice card that says how much you love her and add that her gift is you for the day - whatever she wants you to do. Who needs jewelry.

Mom's birthday is 10/25/31 so she knows.

My mother is staying with us this weekend...so I can't devote that day entirely to my wife. I am taking her to a spa for the weekend in a few weeks(nothing to do w/ mothers day). Of course, she doesn't need jewelry...just want to spoil her a bit <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="biggrin.gif" />

We went to the Umbria region of Italy a couple of days after we got back from Miami(yes we had quite the jet-set January!). Well Air Aitalia lost what may have been an important peice of luggage. Thus, the nice surprise! <img border="0" alt="[Cheers]" title="" src="graemlins/cheers.gif" />

What an awesome story! Now you have to come up with some Italian names for the baby. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Smile]" src="smile.gif" />
