What are the mommies doing for DADDY's Xmas Gifts ???

I cant think of anything creative for daddy for Xmas. The old days of us buying eachother a cartload of 'necessities' (clothes, shoes, etc etc) just doesnt phase us any more. We can buy that anytime.

HE keeps asking me what I want for Xmas (I cant think of anything )
and Im also trying to think of what to get him from his little guy..maybe even something that can be a tradition (not an ornament every year? what else?)

Any ideas? what are you ladies 'asking for' or getting? It seems that we are the last on our own lists.. I keep buying JA stuff and not even thinking about daddy and me

I got Derek (avid coffee drinker) a mug that says Daddys Little Girl with a pick of a daddy and girl holding hands with their names underneath (Daddy and Emma). I LOVE PERSONALCREATIONS.com

I also got Scott a Daddy's Girl mug with Molly's photo on it.

I got Jeff the personalized slate frame (very masculine looking) from Personal Creations. I think Tracey had originally posted it. Anyway, I put a black and white pic of Jeff and Paul hysterical laughing in it. It's a great pic of them - best buddies laughing and having a great time together.....oh, melt my heart!

My friend who has a 1 year old took a picture of her son when he was about 9 or 10 months in one of her DH's dress shirts. It is the cutest thing! They plan to take a picture like that of him every year as he grows into Daddy's shirt. So for you ladies with son's, that may be a cute tradition to start and give pictures to Dad's and Grandpas.

I saw something like that on Oprah where this woman took a pic of her daughter every year, I think it was with a big dress on... I guess same concept. It was a dress that was in the family for years.. it was precious...
