I am so torn on this. I hat to just get a couple shirts he likes, but I also don't think he likes the sappy cheesy gifts as much as I like giving them to him. So, what are you getting?
I went all out for his birthday so definitely scaled fown: a Steelers grill vover and my photog is supposed to have a print ready from our session last week.

DS is getting him an iPhone. I bought him a replacement wedding band since he lost his earlier this year. It was a tungsten ring and was only fifty bucks!
DS is getting DH a personalzed grill utensil set. Some of the pieces say "Dad of the Year." I will also probably get some kind of cute shift for DS to wear....something that mentions Dad. I got him a Omaha steak package and a charcoal grill. I may also get something sappy too since it's his first Father's Day.

I made a mug with her handprint at a paint your pottery place. When I was pregnant, that happened on a show we watch, and MH thought it was too cute, so I decided to do it then
I got him a french press, because his broke, and I made him a Shutterfly book just of pictures of him and LO, because I am a huge sap like that.
We're giving him 2 books that he said he wants, and a double picture frame with a picture of him and Clara on one side, and Clara's hand print on the other side. Pretty simple, but I figure it gives him something to enjoy and something heartfelt.
DH wants a new Smith & Wesson. They are expensive, but we get discounts on them so I agreed. Plus I got a realllllly expensive camera for mother's day. I might get him a cheesy gift to go with it!
Joe runs so DD got him the Nike Fuel band ( watch ) . It is a little pricey but they got me a mother's ring from James Avery and the bigger Keurig for Mother's Day so I really can't complain.
DS was born on Fathers day, so I feel like its a very sentimental holiday. I think I'm going to take a picture of the three of us on Saturday, which is DS's party, and have it blown up to frame I'm looking forward to it, right now we don't have any family pictures up anywhere, so I think it'll be great and I think DH will like it
We generally do smallish gifts, so DS is getting DH a "toddler owner's manual" - a hopefully funny book I found on ThinkGeek. Not sure what I'm getting him but probably a "day off" - it's what he said he wanted.

I haven't decided yet, but was thinking of a new lawn mower or keyless remote start for his car. DH and a neighbor has joked that since we had DS that when he gets older he can mow. DS is also getting him the ABC Cub's book. I'm not a Cub's fan and the other day DH said DS needed some more ABC things. We were shopping this weekend and he picked it up. I told him no we weren't getting him that. He thought it was because I am a Cardinal fan and told me he would buy it for DS. He doesn't know I've already bought it for him and I hope he doesn't get it this week on his own.
DH shaves with an old school badger hair brush, straight blade razor and shave soap. I make his shave soap usually, so I got him a mug from shutterfly with a picture of him and DS on it and will fill it with his soap.
Re: What is LO getting their dad for father's day?
