I know this is way early but I'm already starting to think about what to get DH for his first Father's Day. At first I was thinking an engraved money clip with our DD's birthday and a handmade card from our DD. But now I'm not sure.
What did other mommies get their SO for their first Father's Day?

Our daughter was only about a month and half at that point. I got him a fathers guide to parenting (joke) and something else. Can't reme what.
Second Fathers Day we went on a lunch cruise with FIL.
Third I had dd make him a photo frame. Basically it was a blank frame from Michaels that she finger painted on.
Haven't started thinking about this year yet!

LO came home from the NICU just in time for Father's Day weekend last year. We got DH a card. I would like to do something special this year. Maybe a grill and something made by LO.

For his first father's day, I bought a plain black t-shirt and fabric paint. I wrote on the pocket area of the shirt "my daughter walks all over me" and then I had a friend help me put my daughter's footprints all over the front of the shirt. I used a single color of paint that first year. Then, last year (2nd father's day) my husband helped me add to the shirt in a second color. I'm hoping to keep adding each year so by the time she's a teenager, he'll have something to prove that he's been walking all over him her whole life!
I guess I'll need to come up with something similar for my son starting this year...

I gave DH a tshirt of his favorite MLB team and a matching hat for DS, a razor set that came with a real razor and a play razor from Harry's, and some fancy shaving cream.

Whiskey stones since she increased his drinking, the first 6 months. I don't remember what I gave him.
I ordered her a cute shirt on etsy to wear too.

I'm due in August. I'm planning to get him the diaper bag he wants for Father's Day.
I've seen all sorts of cute Father's Day art projects on Pinterest. Here are some examples:
