Daddy’s Day ’10

My kiddies have the BEST Daddy in the WHOLE WIDE WORLD, so we had to do it up right.  The day started with ME making the breakfast.  If you’ve joined me here before, or know me, then you also know that I can’t/don’t cook.  Well, I had to give my hubbie a break on Father’s Day so he was “treated” to my whole wheat French toast, which I kindly coated with tons of powdered sugar, fresh berries, and thick maple syrup.  I added a side of strong coffee, so it was all good!

Then I quickly moved on to the gifts!  The best presents were all the cards including the special homemade cards from Bean and Annabel.

Then hubbie was off to the spa for a 90 minute massage followed by a sushi lunch at the bar all by himself.  This is how we do Mother’s Day and Father’s Day at our house.  The reward of being so awesome and involved in your children’s lives all year long is a special day where you get to spend time ALL ALONE.  IT’S THE BEST.

But then our family quickly regrouped for a grand finale dinner at the Outback Steakhouse! 

GG joined us and it was super yummy.  For some reason we all ordered the fresh veggie side so there was an insane amount of green broccoli all over the table and I wish I had taken a picture of that.  I am glad that I did NOT  take a picture of Annabel’s meltdown when she could not hold her milk cup right or balance a piece of penne pasta on one spoke of her fork.  But other than that, we survived the Father’s Day dinner.  Hubbie had a beer so all was right with the world.

I just wanted to say thank you again, Baby.  Thank you for another amazing year as Daddy.

And just like the Father’s Day card said: You sure know how to make a kid feel loved and a wife feel lucky. 

I love you.
