Daddy's Day

We had a great day celebrating B's first Father's Day! Grace was so excited to give her Daddy his present that she woke up at 4:30 in the morning. We weren't quite ready to start Father's Day at that hour, so I wound up her mobile and she fell back asleep. We repeated this process at 5:30, then she was up for the day around 6:30. I had told B he could sleep in, since it's his day and all, but first we had to give him his present!

I can't take full credit for the idea; I was inspired by some mama friends! I love the way it turned out. It was a lot harder to get her footprints this time around, she kept curling her toes. I could tell B really liked it! Gracie and I are also treating Daddy to a day of golfing as part of our gift.

When Grace went down for a nap, I made breakfast for B and I - French toast with homemade bread (made by B's grandmother) and ham. So good! We headed out to my parents' house for the afternoon to wish Grampers a happy Father's Day too. Auntie Murr made an awesome spaghetti sauce, and we had cherry pie for dessert (Grampers' favorite). Gracie had sweet potatoe for supper and some prunes for dessert! She was up past her bedtime, but she was happy to be hanging out with her aunts, uncles and grandparents; she hates missing anything. She slept in the car on the way home and I transferred her over to her crib with her only waking up for a minute. I think B's first Father's Day was a success!
