For those of you racking your brains for what to buy for your wife this Christmas. I have compiled a list. You can print this up and bring it with you. And then you and your wife can thank me later.
- Pressure cooker. Yum yum. You get awesome food out of it.
- New couch. I hate ours, plus you can nap more comfortably. *warning, this might not apply to all wives*
- T-Fal actifry. Again, you get awesome yummy food.
- Fixed toilet upstairs. Bonus for you: no more nagging! (This applies to homes that need bulbs changing, or any appliance fixed also)
- 1″ and 2″ curling iron. Bonus for you: We don’t look like freaks going out in public with you. (Straighteners also will work for this purpose).
- A detailed Car wash. Bonus for you: We are happy getting into our car. We can finally see the floor mats. AND the kids stop thinking half melted 6 month old candy are treats that we were saving for them between the seats.
- A beautiful rosary. Reminds us of you every time we pray, so you probably will get extra prayers and graces out of it.
- A day at the spa. And I mean getting girlie stuff. Manicure, facials. All the things boys don’t get. Reminds us of how feminine and important you think we are, which reminds us how masculine you are.
- A two person game that we (hubby and wife) can play together. Go fish, or anything for the kids doesn’t count. Bonus? We get grown up quality time and conversation.
- Anything to help organize. Anything at all. Baskets, shelves, drawer sorters, really. Anything. If our life is a little more organized, we are happier, which means you are happier.
- A random cool thing from Ikea or better yet Pier One. We love house decorating stuff. It is the paradise that reminds us of when we had cool decorating taste (and not just ‘I hope the kids can’t break this’ taste). It doesn’t even need to have a purpose. Just something that is really cool.
- Family photos. Really. Spend the money, find a good local photographer, and get some pictures. It is a lifetime gift. Then make sure to get a big print made too. Bonus for you: We are reminded of how handsome you are every time we see them.
- New bedding. And I mean awesome. Let’s be honest, there is no way that we will ever spend the money on sheets that are needed for awesome beds ourselves. Bonus for you: comfy bed to be broken in…
- Jewelry. When in doubt, you can never go wrong with an awesome piece of jewelry. Never. Bonus: … um… Well.. I can’t think of one for you. BUT it would make us happy… Does that count?
- Tickets to something. Now I am not talking monster truck shows here. I mean something she would like. Like a play. Or ballet. Or some sort of show with horses or bluemen or acrobats. Bonus for you: A night out that your wife looks hot.
- Walk into a store that smells good. Usually has the word “bath” in the title. One of those stores that are the opposite of manliness. Then grab a whole bathroom routine of stuff… Soap, shampoo, lotion, bathsalts, candles (yes, candles are routine for bath time). The whole nine yards. Then walk into a store that sells towels. Grab the fluffiest, most comfortable bath robe you can get your hands on. Whammo, you have an awesome gift that covers everything. Bonus for you? Your wife smells great, looks great, and feels great. Which means she might want you to smell, look at, and feel her…
- Go to a Farmers Market. Look for premade meals that can be frozen. Saves her time, and gives her options for days when cooking isn’t in the timeline. Usually Farmer’s Markets are local and healthy food too. Bonus: you get good food again.
That is all for now, I am hoping to add for you as Christmas approaches.
God Bless.
Pray for me as I pray for you always.
Catholic Momma.
Haha, so by “those of you” you mean Chad….?
Yep. 😉
