    DH and I have never really exchanged Christmas gifts, I guess we're kind of weird that way. If I were to get DH anything from LO it would probably be diapers haha.

    I got him a couple outfits that say "I love daddy" because he was upset that I got one as a gift that says "I love mommy".  The worst thing though is I bought the baby a gift from Santa...he will laugh at that one.

    Yeah, I decided to do this after seeing someone post about it on here the other day.  There are a Carter's and a Gymboree outlet right next to my office so I think I'll run over there during my lunch break sometime soon and pick up a onesie that says something about daddy on it, then give it to DH from the baby for Christmas.

    I bought DH his childhood favorite Christmas movie on DVD (Jim Henson's The Christmas Toy) from the baby.  Unfortunately DH has very few happy childhood memories (the IL's are horrible people, but that's another post for another day) and this movie has always been a big deal to him, so I bought it so he can share it with LO!

    Nah, DH and I are buying a new TV for Christmas this year. Nothing from baby...the kids aren't doing gifts for us this year, either.

    I got my DH this onesie from the baby. It says "Science is fun!" and DH is a chemist so I think he'll get a laugh out of it.

    DH and I tend to call eachother 'Pookie' when it's just the two of us (he would kill me for telling anyone that!) and I found a baby board book titled "I love you little Pookie" so I got him that for/from the baby.

    I also got both sets a grandparents a book to keep at their house from the baby.

    I got him 3 onsies that I was planning to put in his stocking.  They are all about things DH loves and I couldn't resist.  However, I got them in the mail last night and couldn't contain myself, so I gave him ALL 3 already!

    :o)

    Oh gosh - we do too!!  DH would die if I told anyone in IRL. I am hunting down that book right now!!

    In response to the OP, one night we were teasing each other about getting "World's greatest" sweatshirts. I am totally getting him a World's Greatest Dad Sweatshirt for xmas....it can be from baby :-)

    I did by DH a few gifts from our baby to come.  I ordered him a CD:Rockabye Baby! Lullaby Renditions of U2  U2 is his favorite band and I ordered him a book:  Be Prepared: A Practical Handbook for New Dads I have looked through the book and it looks pretty good.

    We find out on Friday, but I may do some funny onesies like you all suggested...I really hadn't thought about it, since we're trying to save up for LO...But I guess there is no harm in buying something for the LO (technically)!

    They will still be "for" the baby", but it's fun to make it look like it's "from" the baby!
