Better Than Newlyweds

Where the Honeymoon never ends!

Gift Ideas for Wives by Wives | Stacy Hudson | Better Than Newlyweds

December 5, 2016 by Mrs. Hudson

I asked wives what they wanted for Christmas from their husbands. The following is Gift Ideas for Wives by wives. A few of the gift ideas might repeat but I decided to leave them so that husbands would see that a lot of wives simply want time alone with the man they Love. They want to relax and reconnect and just enjoy one another.  ( I will continue to update this list as I hear back from wives! ) Affiliate links included in this post for your shopping convenience.

Here are the Gift Ideas for Wives by Wives:

DAY OFF TO HERSELF

I want a true day off. No one touches me or talks to me for one whole day.

TIME ALONE WITH HUSBAND

To be honest. I would LOVE time away with my husband. Just a weekend, just he and I. We have been married almost 7 years and never been anywhere together. And it gets so hard. I just want time with him and here lately I have been feeling very lonely. I am around my kids 24/7 so my husband and I really need that time together. Just give me a weekend with him without any distractions, no tv, phone, internet. Nothing but he and I.

Some time with my husband where we can just talk and laugh together.

A night away would be amazing, without phones or distractions. He is the go-to guy in his group of shooting enthusiast friends and they are constantly blowing up his phone with questions and pictures. I absolutely adore his passion for the sport – but sometimes mama needs some attention! A cut/color/massage gift certificate would be nice as well!

A weekend away with just my husband. To be able to shop, snuggle, and do some kind of winter activity like skiing or ice skating

I would really love a weekend away

For him to get kids ready for bed and let me wait for him in bed instead of vise versa.

OTHER GIFT IDEAS FOR WIVES BY WIVES SUGGESTIONS

I pick everything out & he gets it

I would like a mommy gift basket with slippers, some things from bath and body works, a gift card to my favorite coffee spot and some just for you (seriously don’t spend it on anyone else!!!) cash lol

I just give him a long list so he has a lot of options to choose from(I know I don’t get everything) but that way it still leaves a little surprise in it for me

I don’t want anything honestly. I find joy just in giving gifts to others and seeing their excitement. He really wants to buy me something though. Because gifts is my love language. But I’d be happier with a sincere love letter than something materialistic.

Love Languages | Mrs. Scherer

March 9, 2013 by Mrs.Scherer

John and I have been married for 25 years. It hasn’t always been easy, but we’ve learned a lot of things a long the way. We believe the heart of a great marriage is learning that love is an action. It’s a choice we have to make daily. Through a series of short blogs, I will share lessons that we’ve learned that have helped us choose to love. We hope that you will find some ideas that you can put into action that will help strengthen your marriage!

My first suggestion is something that has helped John and I be better partners and even better parents. Learn each other’s “love language”. Gary Chapman has written a book called The Five Love Languages. I’d highly recommend it to everyone! It helps you understand how you and your spouse tend to receive and give love. Once I understood that we each prefer to give and receive love differently, it was much easier for me to see when my husband was trying to give me love and how I could best give him love in a way that he preferred. My love languages are words of affirmation and acts of service. My husband’s are physical touch and quality time. By understanding this, I can choose to love John by spending more time with him, holding hands, rubbing his back, and of course understand his need to feel loved through making love. John can choose to love me by telling me that he loves me, how much he appreciates me, how much he cares about me. He knows the way to my heart is through acts of service – helping around the house, preparing the meals, bringing me nutter butters when I’m stressed out, and supporting me with my work and homework. Learning love languages will help you with all your relationships – spouse, kids, work, friends, everywhere!

Here is a quick snap shot of the Five Love Languages:
