Best Christmas Gifts for Mom- Holiday Gift Guide 2014

I often get asked about gifts for moms and if I have any suggestions as to what moms would like under the tree during the holidays.

I know a lot of people say that you should never buy a woman an appliance for holiday’s or birthdays but I have to say that I DISAGREE!

There are lots of great items on the market right now that make a busy moms life easier so why shouldn’t you give it as a gift? If it is given in love with the intention of making life easier, what mom wouldn’t be happy?

Best Christmas Gifts for Mom:

1. Mophie for iPhone 5 & 5S –Let me first say that I love, love, love my Mophie. Not sure what it is? It is a battery charger case for your phone so you never run out of power. It stays on your phone and charges both the external battery and your phone so when you phone battery starts to die you can switch to Mophie power. It is GREAT and I use mine every day.

2.Crock-Pot Connectable System 3-Piece Set— I got these to review last year and I STILL love them! And I’m not the only one! I have loaned them out to friends and family and they have raved over them as well. They are crockpots that come in a variety of sizes and they all connect together,so you don’t have to worry about finding multiple outlets. What makes them even better is that each unit works on its own so they are great even when just cooking for your family.

3.KitchenAid 4.5-Qt. Classic Plus Stand Mixer— My mixer is the second most used small kitchen appliance in my home. I put off purchasing one for years thinking I could get by with cheaper options..once I finally bought one I couldn’t believe how awesome it was. I use it to mix everything from bread dough to baked goods to ground beef for meatballs. It is well worth the investment!

4.Keurig® K-Cup® K60/K65 Special Edition— my Keurig is the single most used item in my kitchen…hands down…and I don’t even drink coffee. I use my Keurig multiple times per day to make brew over ice ice tea. I also use it to warm up water for cup of soup and hot chocolate for the kids on cold days.

5.Shark Rocket Ultralight Upright — I have been using the vaccuum for the past few months and I really love it. It is lightweight, easy to use and navigate and does a great job keeping my floors and carpets clean–what with 5 kids and a dog is VERY important! It is light enough that my kids can use it easily and the handheld aspect of it makes cleaning my steps a breeze.

What items make your busy life easier? Do you hope to see them any of items under your tree this year?
