Father's Day Gifts

MommyKristin88 · May 2014

Have we talked about this yet?

What is everyone getting their SO?

My guy spent a lot on my Mother's Day gifts, but I am at a loss for what to get him. I feel obligated to spend a nice amount since he did, too.

Lol. I got a card for Mother's Day. Soooo...

:-(

I'd feel horrible just giving a card. I can't believe people consider that a gift.

A charcoal grill/smoker combo

We don't have one of those, and it could double as a gift for me lol. I like that idea!

A smoker is my plan for next year when we're finally in a house!!

He has a new job, with an office with bare walls. I may get him a framed pic of the Florida State football stadium (but more than I'd like to spend)... He'll likely get a bottle of some new gin he really likes... DD and I are making a handprint pic that they'll update yearly (basically his hand print, and then her's on top of it - it'll be framed with "me and my girl" written on the matte). I'm hoping he'll take that to his office. And completely unromantic...maybe a new lunch bag. LOL

DH is supposed to go pick up a new tractor. Seems kinda overkill compared to my Mother's Day gift.

If I got my guy a tractor he'd be so confused. LMAO we're not really in "tractor land".

What did you get for Mother's Day?

I am getting him a pocketwatch and a book he can read LO about Daddy's. I am also making him many special treats like french toast croissants with fresh made strawberry syrup and whipped cream for breakfast. Not sure what I am making him for dinner yet but he loves stuffed mushrooms so that will be the appetizer.

BlueJewelM · May 2014

I don't give him a Father's Day gift. But the boys will. DS1 picked out some shoes H has been wanting and DS2 will probably get him a shirt.

I'm getting him an electric smoker. I'm hoping it'll make it easier for him to cook meat correctly haha.. I'm going to be selling some odds and ends and combine it with my makeup selling money so I can get it for him without using his checks because it's kind of expensive.

I forgot about a special meal!! Good idea!

I'm with @hauntedradio, all I got was a card (and some flowers). I am so so tempted to not give him shit. However, I just ordered him a new mouse pad and coffee mug with pics of him and LO for his new office. I'm going to make sure to hide them though. He may or may not get them for father's day. Depends on how I feel about the whole thing. I'm still a bit disappointed.

kwrecks · May 2014

A card and some candy. Pretty much what I got. Maybe a homemade card from E.

BlondieBia21 · May 2014

Eta- I didn't receive anything for Mother's Day.. (It won't let me edit my original reply.)

shivers7 · May 2014

I'm going to make a cute footprint craft I saw on Pinterest... then probably breakfast in bed and not sure what else. Maybe a case of beer or something lol

sftbllstr87 · May 2014

A charcoal grill something special for dinner and something handmade from the boys. It stinks bc Father's Day our anniversary and his birthday are all within 2 weeks of each other

I got a card the day after Mother's Day and flowers from cvs...

@ludali‌ We're also doing the handprint craft. He said he wanted some house slippers a while ago. So I'm grabbing a pair of uggs.

I got a pair of Ugg slippers for my birthday last year...HEAVEN! I'm kinda sad summer is coming...to warm to wear them!

V&G101808 · May 2014

Beats headphones and maybe a new pair of sandals since he got paint on the Nike ones he loves.

We'll take him out to eat on Sunday and I'll probably make a little canvas project from LO so he can put it on his desk.

Oooh! I just remembered, I had saved a personalized tie clip on Etsy. My guy wears suits everyday and he likes to wear tie clips, I know he'll love this.

DH bought himself a fancy electric shaver and said it was his Father's Day gift so I'm going with that!

He's so hard to buy for so I was totally happy with that! I'll make him breakfast on Father's Day so it still feels special.

DH spoiled me on Mother's Day, but for valentines day I bought him a fancy new watch and he got me a card and flowers so if I don't go overboard for Father's Day I think it balances out.

So far, some organic cheese puffs because he loves cheese puffs and we are starting to eat all organic. And a Star Wars picture frame that says something cheesy about father and son so I will put a nice pic of the two of them in it. Prob one of the many pics of them in matching superhero tshirts.

I also told him to go golfing or fishing for the day but he says it defeats the point of the day and he wants to spend his day with DS, so we will prob BBQ.

vulpini · May 2014

I got a little teapot (I drink a lot of tea). I haven't decided on his gift yet, but also something small

janneann1127 · May 2014

I gave him the gift of golfing this Saturday. I also made a mug with pics on it from the boys, and we will make him some breakfast to wake him up with.

TeacherMom210 · May 2014

I got a really nice I Love Mom necklace from DD and a salon style nail dryer from DH for Mother's Day.

He's a little harder to get for, but I'm getting DH a game for his Nintendo 3DS (we're gamers), and DD is getting him a picture frame with picture of the two of them and a Star Fleet Engineering iPad case for his iPad. (He wants it really badly, but it's for work and normally we wouldn't spend that kind of money for work.)

sftbllstr87 We have the same issue. Our anniversary is 5/20, H's b-day is 6-1, and Father's Day is a couple of weeks after that.

kanned0121 · May 2014

I got a card and he said working on the yard was my gift. BS, it's your yard too!!

I'm also trying to come up with a similar gift. Toilet paper, maybe??

Want a personalized experience?
