Now that we are pregnant... I've been thrown head first into all things BABY.
One question that popped in my head today is what I should do for DH for Father's Day this year... 
Our baby isn't due until November, but I want to get him a lil memento.
Have any pregnant or mama bees done this pre-birth? Any cute ideas?

Not for Father's Day specifically but for his birthday.
For his bday (we are going small this year) I got him and baby matching onesie and tshirt for our home town NFL team. He's a huge die hard fan.
I thought of also getting him a I Love Daddy frame with a sonogram pic. Which he actually ended up getting ME!

Wait and see if he gets you anything for Mother's Day, and then follow his lead.

I got my husband a onesie that is half my college and half his, we're rivals.

@regberadaisy: Yes. And LO actually ended up being gifted the dress version of the onsie (I didn't know if she'd be a boy or girl yet so I went gender neutral) along with a bow that matched.

I didn't find out I was pregnant until after Mother's and Father's day. So we celebrated our first after LO was born!

@artbee: What a fun idea! Do you mind my asking which seller you used?

DS was a month old for father's day last year so when I got his one month picture done they gave a fathers day version in the package. We also went to dinner.
Maybe a maternity shoot holding an image from the u/s?

Even though I was pregnant during M-day and F-day last year, we didn't celebrate or do anything for each other. We wanted to wait until this year to REALLY celebrate each other as mother and father.

@mrsjyw: How far along will you be by Mother's and father's day? Will you be finding out the sex? It would be cool to incorporate that info if you had it.

I ordered a custom Father's Day card from Shutterfly. It was free (via a promo) so I took advantage of it.

I found a picture of the two of them and wrote a cute message to dad from LO. Then I had shutterfly mail it to our house (just paid for postage). I was there when he opened the card and he looked like he was about to cry. Mission complete! Even if it wasn't free, it would've bee like $3 with postage. So it's really inexpensive. I plan on doing it again this year and make it a yearly tradition.

@joyjoy: I don't remember, and I went to look for it but I don't see it. Makes me sad -it is so cute! I do see some house divided stuff, but not what we got.

@mrsjyw: I thought I saw something on pinterest, but can't seem to find it.

Hmmm, since my due date is May 27, I knew I would be getting DH a father's day gift, but hadn't thought about what yet. Turns out I might deliver much earlier than my due date so DH might need to get me a mother's day gift!
