I say order something online.

If he plays golf, you can order him a golf towel with a picture of your little one on it. I gave my hubby one last year from the kids and he LOVED it, and keeps it on his golf bag. I think we ordered it from Shutterfly or Snapfish. They have some other cute ideas on those sites as well -- poker chips and cards w/ pics, etc.

I also made him a small laminated card to keep in his wallet with a little saying and a pic of the girls. He still has it in there after 2 years.

take a picture of you and your little girl while you are pregnant. then make it black and white,and use your editor to fade it and type a cute poem about fathers on top. I'll do it all for you for $25,including taking the photo. I can email you an example of one I just did if you'd like to see.
It's really cute! :)

Shutterfly (www.shutterfly.com) does wonderful DVDs. You can very easily upload tons of photos and arrange them into a DVD that is quite simple. You also choose music to go with the photos, and there are a few different styles you can do to fade in/out the pics as the DVD plays.

I've done numerous DVDs through Shutterfly and love them all. We do one with all our Christmas photos each year, and one of our Christmas Eve rituals is to watch all the DVDs from prior years. Lots of fun & the kids love to see them. I'm doing one for Father's Day this year for the first time.

I would say you might want to highlight this time especially since your daughter will no longer be an only child.

I am making a book on shutterfly and going along the lines of the kids books "I love my daddy b/c" and "just like daddy". I have taken fave pics from over this year and made my own phrases to go with them (I love my daddy b/c he picnics with me, etc.) I got those books and few other special daddy and me kids books for father's day last year so they can have special reading times about dads and kids. My husband travels for work so this was also a great way for me to read to him when he was gone to talk about daddy and how happy we will be when he comes home again. All this can be ordered online (most w/out shpg chgs so that helps the price) so you don't have to get out and shop!

I got him a mug that is big and has a footprint of my son's foot on it that is made to look like a deer...it say's Daddy's little hunter on it. I thought he could put it on his desk for pens, etc.

You should look into one of those painted places and see if they have somthing like that! I happened to be at a painted piggies party and that is where I had mine made.

Hi Cari,
I am making my husband a DVD slideshow of pictures of him and my son who is 9 months old. I am including almost every picture I have taken of the two of them since my son was born. This would be a small meaningful gift that would be easy for your husband to carry with him to his drills or if (cross your fingers he doesn't) he gets deployed. My brother is currently deployed in Afhanistan and he is able to view discs of pictures on their shared computers.
Congrats on baby #2!
