    This is probably what we will do, in addition to a college themed monopoly game and tie.

  • I bought a pocket watch and some custom cuff links both from Etsy... These are the seller's images.
  • We are skipping Mother's Day and Father's Day gifts this year.  Instead we bought ourselves new iPhones to replace our crappy old ones that have needed to be replaced for a long time.   We both got iPhone cases from Shutterfly with photo collages on them :-)    

    We're trying to make Mother's and Father's Day about spending time together, and not about gifts or stuff.  So we'll probably do a special outing and dinner that day as a family.

    I do HIGHLY recommend the Shutterfly iPhone cases though, if you're stuck on a gift.  They look great and came REALLY quickly.

    I'm buying him a flamethrower. For weeds. So he can stop harassing me about using herbicides in our garden.

  • I got him a fitbit. I've tried to give him cutesy gifts with baby pics on them, keepsakes and whatnot, but he doesn't care and doesn't appreciate them (or even use them). I would LOVE the kinds of gifts that I give him!

    He's been annoying about wanting a pepper grinder for the past few months so Mack got him a cuisinart 2 mill rechargeable salt and pepper grinder with some Himalayan salt and a pound of peppercorns. We also got supplies to do a footprint and poem as a keepsake for him and to be used in lieu of a card. We are going to do the poem "walk with me daddy" Edit for spelling
    omg that poem has me tearing up. I'm going to use it.

    Adalyn and I are making him a stepping stone footprint for our garden and plan to do one every year. She also got him "Vader's Little Princess" storybook to read to her.

  • My DH has been asking me to sculpt a wizard for 3 years, so I'm finally going to do that for him...if I can find the time and have both hands available for more than 15 minutes.

  • I think I'm gonna get a personalized mini baseball bat with LO's name, birth weight, etc. since we are big baseball fans. It'll fit right in with his baseball collection in the office.
  • I bought my husband a little baseball mitt that will be our son's first mitt. For when he's big enough that DH can teach him to play catch! It's something my husband has mentioned being excited for multiple times so I hope he likes it!

    I brought dd1 (3) to a painting pottery place. She painted a platter with bowl in the middle and then we put dd2 footprints on it. We then will go to the local market and buy dhs favourite guacamole for the bowl and homemade chips for the platter and have a family game day. I was also going to get his favourite beer from a local brewery.

    Is this a real thing? Where do I get one? Need to kill epic tons of foxtails

  • I would like to paint/stamp DDs hand on a coffee mug for him to take to work, but she still keeps her hands pretty tight, not sure if it will work. I'm also on the hunt for his favorite kids book since he reads to her at bed time every night. I'd like to do the pics with the letters too. Thankfully my mom will be here this week to help me with this stuff.
  • Got a cute daddy onesie and took pics to put on a mug from shutterfly. Also he was washing the car the other day and mentioned he didn't have any car washing supplies, so I made a kit from Amazon purchases to give him. Will probably make breakfast and stuff as well.
