What are you getting DH for fathers day?

My husband has been so amazing I really want to do something nice for him for fathers day. We are on a bit of a budget. Any ideas?

  • For Dh and both grandfathers, I ordered photobooks from shutterfly with pictures from her first 5 days in it. I ordered the cheapest ones that I think were like $13/book.

  • I used to work summers at one of those paint your own pottery places and new mom's would make the cutest things with baby footprints on them.

    My plan is to make a mug with Ben's footprints for DH to take to work.

  • I am going to try to take pictures of both kids, together and individually holding the D-A-D letters and make a mug out of it.

    Also, he wants 4 of his comic books framed together, and I would love to be able to do that...but I am struggling to find a comic book display frame.

    I thought about getting him Phillies tickets, I found a person on ebay who sells diamond club seats for a reasonable price, so I might just do that....

    his birthday is in the beginning of July, so whatever doesn't get done for Father's day with become a birthday gift.

  • Officially we're on a tight budget and thus not doing anything, but I'm going to use my personal allowance to get him a onesie with the logo of his favorite superhero. Inexpensive but something he'll get a real kick out of.

  • My DH is a bit nerdy so I will probably get him this book as a Father's Day/Anniversary Present. We are also going out for our anniversary/ Mother's/ Father's Day.

  • Madison is so cute! 

    DH won't expect much so I'm taking footprints and handprints of DS and making a card.  I'm still working on writing a poem for it.  I figure he will want to keep it for years just to see those little feet and hands.  Like I said though, we both are pretty low-key on these types of things.

    Thanks! I think I'm gonna get one of those home hand print/foot print kits.

  • I'm planning to get DH a new grill. We grill out a TON and our grill is in need of being replaced. The grill I've picked out is about $300 so it will be his bday gift, too.

  • I am going to get DH a solid wood carving board with a blood well (sounds weird but he is a cook and really wants one!), a pair of trail running shoes, and some framed pics for his desk at work of DD and the family.
