Mother's Day - what are you doing for the Mrs.?
The wife and I just had our first baby in December, yes it was a surprise.. no, no, let me rephrase that, he was a gift
 My wife has four children from a previous marriage, three of which are already on their own. In the past, it has been my job to make sure they don't forget Mother's Day and at least call her or get a card etc. This year, it seems appropriate that I make a bigger deal out of Mother's day for her. So, who is doing what this year either for your wife or for your Mother?

Yeah, probably so. If she's like most women who've just had a baby, she probably doesn't feel attractive with the baby fat that remains.
My guess would be to figure out what makes her feel good about herself and reassures her you think she's still beauriful. Maybe breakfast in bed (maybe mimosas, strawberries, eggs benedict, etc), take her to a jazz brunch, a pic of her and the kids in a nice crystal frame, a spa day gift certificate. I dunno...you'll figure it out

I'm taking my wife to the Quinault Indian Resort Casino so she can gamble while I entertain Jr. My only hope is that I can catch the last couple of hours of the Player's Championship during nap time. BTW, casino gambling makes me physically nauseous. I don't understand why people freely give their money away, but it's her only vice & I keep a close eye on it.

If my Mom was still alive, I'd take her for a ride in my 911 and scare the s*it out of her. But since thats not the case, I'll take my wife out for supper with her folks. Kiss all your inlaws, even if you dont like them, because they wont be here forever.

Mom's Day is also my daughters birthday so we are trying to squeeze a birthday and celebrations for three mom's into one day.

Well, I made it in good time. Same procedure as every year, or the last eight years at least. I plant another Rhododendron in my mothers back yard. She loves them.
