Father's Day!

Happy Father's Day!

Hubby got to celebrate his first Father's Day this year with Baby A and I think it was a success. I started out Sunday morning moving the baby into the big bed with us to cuddle before we got up to get ready for church. While hubby went off to shower, BabyA and I got out his Father's Day card (Asher drew it himself… I held his arm and he held the pen and moved it around.) And I laid out a brand-new shirt that that I had washed the night before. He was really excited about the shirt and put it on immediately. And then thanked BabyA for his first ever drawing.The card also included pictures and info on two different drills he could choose between and I would order once he did. In our house we don't own a drill and there have been many situations where we have wanted one, that makes us terrible responsible adults, I know. So what better Father's Day gift than a tool. He spent a good while looking and reading up on both drills I picked before he could decide which he wanted. Thanks to Amazon Prime, it will arrive on Wednesday! After we were all dressed we went to church where all the dads were recognized by getting a gift of Sour Patch Kids, Sugar Babies, or Lifesavers... And they could pick based on what their kids were. Hubs got Sour Patch Kids only because he liked them, because BabyA is a Sugar Baby:) After church we went to our favorite bakery for brunch and reading in the sun. This bakery has the best butterscotch latte I have ever had in my life. They make their own butterscotch in house and drizzle it on top of the whip cream…Yum. Hubby got a cinnamon roll and I had a grilled cheese with brie and we sat outside on the patio for an hour and ate breakfast and read until BabyA had enough and we went home. Once we got home I was going to make cheesecakes for dessert Which meant we had to figure out where to put the baby so he would be happy because hubby wanted some alone time to relax. I figured it was finally time to change out the baby swing for the exersaucer. Baby is and getting more and more persnickety about lying like a baby in the swing and wanting to sit up instead, so the swing was quickly losing its usefulness. Luckily, thanks to my nanny mom I had an exersaucer in the back hallway waiting for BabyA to get big enough to use it. We switched out the swing in the kitchen and put the baby in it. He promptly went into sensory overload and spent 30 minutes just staring at everything. This gave me enough time to make delicious individual sized salted caramel cheesecake cups. Thank you Pinterest. The baby went down for his nap and slept for the next 3! Hours! Once he got up we let him sit with us in the chair while hubby played his new video game. When it became time to make dinner I made skillet chicken pot pie, which is the most delicious thing ever! And while it was baking we put the baby down for the night. We rounded off the evening with pot pie, cheesecake, and watching Taken2. Which was a complete waste of time, my advice… Don't see it. Ever. Father’s Day success. Hubs called it his “second birthday.”
