As I was putting together this Mother’s Day post I quickly realized that this would be one massive gift guide. There are so many categories, where should you start? So I decided to make a little quiz so you can determine what type of mom you are and shop accordingly. Links contain affiliates, all opinions are my own.
1. Your pin boards are full of:
(a) Lots of delicious recipes that you can’t wait to make with your kids for Sunday night dinner.
(b) Clothing posts about thredUP and Stitch Fix. You just can’t get enough and really want to try them out.
(c) Articles on how to relax and take time for yourself.
2. You ideal Mother’s Day would be spent:
(a) Breakfast in bed made by your kids, then dinner out with your hubby.
(b) A fun day going shopping with friends.
(c) Sleeping in and then enjoying a spa day so you can relax.
3. If someone stops by your house unexpectedly they’ll most likely find you:
(a) Wearing an apron with some type of food smeared on your face.
(b) With perfect hair.
(c) Still in your pajama bottoms; unless it’s a good day, then you might be in yoga pants.
4. The Instagram accounts you tend to follow are:
(a) Tiny little squares full of mouth-watering food.
(b) Lots of fashion bloggers with their perfectly dressed children.
(c) Mostly pretty landscapes and well-designed interiors, you find those images so relaxing and calming.
5. The first thing you do in the morning is:
(a) Head to the kitchen and start making breakfast.
(b) Get dressed and ready for the day.
(c) Hit the snooze button.
6. If you could shop anywhere kid-free it would be:
(a) Grocery store
(b) The mall
(c) Target
7. In what little spare time you have you like to:
(a) Try out a new recipe.
(b) Give yourself a manicure.
(c) Take a nap.
Mostly A: Foodie Mom
You are happiest when you’re in the kitchen and one of your favorite ways to spend quality time with your kids is by creating something together. You make a home-cooked meal most nights, but also enjoy a nice meal out. There are all sorts of cute kitchen gadgets you’d love to buy yourself, but often don’t because, well, you’re a mom.
Mostly B: Fashion Mom
It’s not that you’re always perfectly polished and look like you stepped out of a magazine, but you pride yourself on looking put together. Also, your kids are often coordinating, both with each other and with you. After all, you have to look #Instagramperfect as often as possible. It would be so nice to be the one getting new clothes for once.
So, which mom are you?
