I am done shopping for my MIL, but my Mom... I have No Idea.
I got my MIL a Kitchen Fairy that she likes to collect, & a Cute Dooney & Burke Cell phone case.

Flowers for both. I also want to get them one of those new hallmark cards where you can record your voice. I think that's a great idea and I know they'll both love it!
I also bought my mom this really cute pillow that says something like #1 Mom and some other cute stuff. This pillow also has a slot for a picture to be inserted and I plan on putting in one of the two of us from the wedding.
Not sure about anything else....

I originally bought her a griddle pan she really wanted but would never buy becasue its 'too expensive' but last minute my cousins decided to buy show tickets for a play she and my aunt really wanted to see (In the HIeghts) so we are going to split those tickets four ways and go as well to make it a 'Mom and kidds' day.

My Mom lives in Georgia [and truth be told, she gets on my nerves]... DH and I will be sending her an Edible Arrangement and a card.
My Stepmom [who raised me with my Daddy] will get a card and... I have no idea!!
My MIL [whom I adore!] will get a card and... I have no idea! She does not like receiving flowers and always tell us kids to save our money b/c she doesn't need anything. She does love scratch off tickets- maybe those and a GC for a mani/pedi.

We are going to pay to upgrade their album covers. Right now, our package says they get paper jackets but I want them to have a nicer cover that won't rip and get worn out so easily.

We got my MIL a necklace and a funky notepad & pen set. I think that we are also going to add a couple of scratch off tickets. I was going to make her a jewelery box but I haven't found an unfinished box that I like. I will still make it for her, but I will give it to her when she comes up to NY for the summer.

Re: what are you getting your mom/MIL for mothers day??
I just bought a Sephora gift card yesterday so that my mom and grandma can go shopping there for whatever they want. I can't possibly make make up color & company selections for them, so the gift card is so much easier.
DH's mom is difficult & her birthday was yesterday, too. So we need to get her a really nice present. She doesn't really wear make up, nor perfume, nor lotions. She's very specific about her jewerly and has a strange taste in clothes. I really need ideas of what to get her.
Dinner and show tickets would not work because DH's father doesn't like to go anywhere.

Wow, I should really get cracking on that! I think for my mother, I want to get her a really nice frame with an enlargement of a picture of us from the wedding.
For my MIL-that's usually DH's job. I know she loves Lenox, so I will probably get her a nice bowl
