TODAY's new dynamic duo, Hoda Kotb and Jenna Bush Hager, share something beyond their roles as co-hosts of the fourth hour — they're both mothers to two young daughters. Hoda has a 2-year-old, Haley, and a newborn baby girl, Hope. Jenna has 5-year-old Mila and 3-year-old Poppy.
With Mother's Day coming up, Hoda and Jenna shared their favorite gifts (to give and receive) with People magazine.
From beauty products to hoop earrings to a journal, here are Hoda's and Jenna's Mother's Day picks.
