    Father's Day gift ideas for Daddy-to-be!

    Hi girls,

    I just realised it's fathers day on Sunday, and wanted to get my hubby something cute from his growing 'baby'.... is anyone else doing something like this, and if so, any gift ideas??

    A nice book about daddies? there are a few out at the moment, he can read it to your tummy now, and to baby once he/she has been born. i got one from big w called Kisses for Daddy, it's quite a nice little story!

    For Daddy to be

    Hi,

    I bought my husband/daddy to be a kit containing things he might need for the baby. A box filled with things like face masks (for poopy nappies), heavy duty gloves, eye protection glasses, a chocolate cigar (as he doesnt smoke), disposible nappy (we are going to use cloth as much as possible) and a small bottle of jim beam (to celebrate with and not for the baby) as well as a can of coke.

    hope this helps.

    I want to get my hubby a video camera so he can capture bub moments to cherish, plus being technology its something to play with till bubs arrives.... It is a little expensive up front, but its something that will last (hopefully) for a long time too....

    Our pram has a cooler bag you can buy separately so I bought that for DH. It's the size of a standard 6-pack cooler bag and hooks onto the base of our pram. I figure we'll use it for drinks and snacks for bubs but I'm sure he'll love stashing a few beers in it when we go to the beach, barbies, etc.

    Taurean - thats fantastic If my DP knew there was a pram with a cooler bag that could hold a 6-pack I reckon he would insist we buy a new pram!!

    He he he! I reckon it will be a hit too! Me and one of my friends are already joking about taking the kids to the beach and stashing a couple of mini champagne bottles in it. LOL!
