Last Minute Mother's Day Gift Guide

*First off - If you haven't entered in my Smile Brilliant giveaway, hop on over to that post first and enter to win your own custom teeth whitening system!

If you need some last minute Mother's Day gift ideas, I'm here for you! Well, Amazon Prime is here for you... I've rounded up a handful of prime eligible gift ideas for those special mamas in your life!

If your mom doesn't currently own a tablet, it is definitely a great gift for those who love to read or just want an easier way to surf the net with out a larger desktop computer. In the same electronics category, an echo dot with Alexa would be a great gift as well. 

You can't go wrong with a special 'best mom ever' coffee mug, pearl necklace or a pair cozy slippers!

Personally, I love the idea of giving a lemon tree or something they can plant and keep all summer long! And who doesn't need a good wine tumbler! Perfect for those wine nights outside on the patio. 

And if you like to give traditional gifts, did you know you can send flowers and chocolates via amazon prime?! 

Another idea not pictured above is a bath tub caddy! This one has been on my wish list since Christmas (hint hint). 

Or if you can't decide what to get, just let them pick something out for themselves with an Amazon Gift card!

Best Mother's Day Yet...

We had such a wonderful Mother's Day weekend! The weather was perfect so that was a gift in it's self. Saturday we had some landscapers work on our trees in our yard so I took the boys to the park. Bill 'gave' me a few hours to myself in the afternoon (so funny this is thought of as a gift?), so where did I end up? Target of course... I mean, shopping in Target alone for an hour is a gift! We ended Saturday outside in our backyard enjoying the weather and grilling out for dinner. 

Sunday morning I was greeted with flowers and a card from Bill and sleepy Camden and Bennett. Bill surprised me and got me a gift card to a local spa! We didn't exchange gifts for Christmas or Valentine's Day just with everything going on and moving so this was a great surprise! We went to church in the morning and dropped both boys off at the nursery which surprisingly went really well! The, we had lunch and the boys napped while I ran a few errands. We went to my parent's house for dinner and we were able to take a few good photos with everyone. I'm so lucky to say that I spent Mother's Day with my Mom AND Grandma! My brother surprised us with a canvas charcoal/print art of the three of us (my grandma, mom and me)! I posted a picture of it on my instastories (@lindsaykr11) if you caught it? It is such a special gift and I can't wait to hang in in our home!

I am so lucky to have my boys to celebrate Mother's Day with! 

I hope you all had a fabulous weekend!

Oh... Hello May! Where did you come from?! May for me means 3 things... 1 - Mother's Day.... 2 - My mom's birthday at the end of the month and 3 - Labor Day weekend aka pools opening aka the official start of summer! 

This will be my 3rd official Mother's Day as a mom myself and the first year celebrating with TWO little ones (ok, 3 if you count our dog Charlie). I always struggle with what to get my mom for Mother's Day because I feel like no physical possession really, truly communicates how much I love and appreciate her. I mean, she does SO much for me and our family (like watching the boys 2 - 3 times per week for example). She never asks for anything in return and is one of the most UN-selfish people I know. So, I always want to get something special for her and almost always run out of time to order something. Not this year!!

I've rounded up some pretty special gifts for special moms above. These can be for your mom, grandma, step mom, mother in law or even yourself!

I have my eye on this pretty in pink Tory Burch wallet on a chain, these earrings and this 'power stone' bracelet.

For your moms and grandmas, how about these cute and classy mugs? And how special is this recipe tin? My mom and grandma are all about the recipe note cards (yea, they don't do pinterest!) so this would be perfect!

I'm also a fan of these tinted sugar lip treatments and these Diptyque candles, both of which would be a perfect gift for any lady in your life!

It's Mother's Day week! Can you believe it?

When it comes to finding the perfect gift for my mother and mother in law, I'm all about trying my best to make sure they are personalized and from the heart. Now that I'm a mom, I want to show my appreciation for them even more! I've put together the list above that includes some more personal items that express my love like the "I love mom" pearl pendant necklace and the Alex and Ani "I Love You Mom" bangle. I also really love the "First my mom, forever my friend" pillow!

One idea I had for a great personalized gift would be to send them a copy of our chatbook of Camden's first year (hopefully she's not reading this and spoils the surprise...). I made a chatbook filled with instagram photos and other photos I had saved on my phone of Camden during his first year of life and every time my mom is over she looks at it and says, "I would LOVE a copy of this!" 

Have you tried chatbooks? It's great if you have kids that you take pictures of constantly and don't know what to do with all the pictures on your phone. You can upload them to the site (and you can link to your IG account and they pull all the photos for you), and create a photo book that includes one photo per page. You can order them monthly or make one big book (like I did) for the year. The book I made has over 166 photos/pages and cost me less than $30! PS - This post was not sponsored by chatbooks, I just really love the service and product!
