    I'm getting my DH a soon to be daddy tool belt with all of the things he'll need when our little one shows up and some fun things.  Goggles, thongs, rubber gloves, some diapers, a burp cloth, some fun toys.

  • An Airport Express to broadcast music from our computers to our receiver/stereo.  We had one and it broke.  He wants a new one.

    ETA: I'll probably get my Dad a phone call.  He does not need any more stuff.  Or maybe a gift certificate to a restaurant.

  • I ordered him a t-shirt on Etsy that says "Seth thinks I'm the best Dad ever". I know he likes all those dad shirts, and this one of course is personalized :)

    I'm also getting him a sake set (pitcher and 4 little cups) and some organic sake- he loves it and every time we go for Japanese food he says he would like to get a set.

  • Nothing.  He won't be home.  And FIL, who knows?  
  • I was thinking on making a list of "101 Things that make you a good father" list and printing it pretty and framing it.  There aren't a lot of material things DH wants, he's pretty minimalist.  I got him a travel toiletry case for his Bday and he was elated.  I don't know how I can top that!

    DH loves Spinal Tap ;)

    Oh, and probably nothing but a card for my dad. We don't normally do gifts for Father's/Mother's Day in our family.

  • I made him a photobook on iphoto of Emily's first six months. I might also get him a new video game.?
  • I'm thinking I'll make FIL some very petite fish-sticks.

    Oh, my...can you imagine the reaction?  

    Is it bad that I'm plotting evil schemes in this fashion?  Is it worse that I'm cracking myself up whilst doing so?

    lol

    I have complete faith that you can pull it off "Well, I know you just LOVE fish, so I thought you would enjoy these!" I also think you should perfect your hidden camera technique in the meantime so that we can all enjoy the reaction ;P

  • LOL!  Unfortunately, the hidden camera is not possible.  FIL lives 1,500 miles away.  I'd have to ship the little delicacies.
