I want to get DH something personalized from H since it's our first VDay with her but other than personalizing a card with her photo on Tinyprints, I can't think of anything! He has EVERYTHING so I'm looking for sentiment...
What are you getting DH?

I'll probably just have lo make him a card. She loves finger painting now

Probably the same thing last year, since we were dealing with a newborn. A hug, a kiss, a bit of a back rub, and that's it. I'm so romantic and original, aren't I?

Probably just a card and a small box of chocolate. For Father's day I made a card on treat.com and loved the way it came out so I may do that again!

@PrincessBaby: is he a coffee drinker? What about a mug with H's feet making a little heart shape on it... then you could write 'be my valentine daddy' on it or something?

Is a personalized iPhone cover w/LO's pic on it weird? He works offshore & part of me thinks he'd like to have it while he's gone...
Like one w/her pic that says Daddy's Girl or something??

I'm due on the 15th so a baby perhaps?
If she's not here yet I'll just bake him something. He likes that way better than presents anyway. I usually handmake epic cards but I don't think I have the energy this year!

You could make him a tie with her handprints/footprints, though she may be too little for that? I (more like my mom) made my dad a tie when I was little (either for V-day or Father's Day) and he wore it on my wedding day!

@prettylizy: we gave those photo mugs from tinyprints to his parents for Xmas so it makes me feel like I shouldn't do the mug thing for him? I don't know...He does drink coffee....Hmmmm!!!

Well you got him Harper so you might be off the hook this year?
I have no ideas....maybe deliver flowers/chocolates/champagne to your house and have him answer the door with a card that says "from your little girl/biggest fan" "to the man who will always have my heart/daddy" or something along those lines to show that he's appreciated.

I'm thinking about a drawing from LO and maybe brownies from me, assuming I'm not busy having a baby.

If you're feeling really ambitious maybe you can paint the bottom of her feet and make a footprint heart.
ETA: Something like these: (I think I'm going to do this and frame it)

@lawbee11: so cute that your dad wore that at your wedding!
@PrincessBaby: I like the iPhone cover idea. Or bake him a cake in a heart shape and get H to put her hand print on top in the frosting...

@travelgirl1: @FutureMrsMcK: @TurtleDoves: @lawbee11: @prettylizy: If I do the iPhone case, which one should I do? DH loves both of these pics I grabbed of her...I kind of like her goofball smile in the purple dress but I know he likes either:

@PrincessBaby: The first one's really cute but I love her little stuck-out tongue in the second, so that one gets my vote!

DH and I have yet to celebrate a V-day together yet
it always turns out to be a really sad holiday for us. We can't afford to do anything... sad cause I like v-day!
@PrincessBaby: I like that second one!

@PrincessBaby: awww love the pic of her in the purple dress! also love the one with 3 pictures..!

@PrincessBaby: i'd do that last one you posted with the three pictures, it looks fab, especially the tongue sticking out pic

@PrincessBaby: I love all of them but #1 in the purple dress is my fave!

@FutureMrsMcK: cute!! I love it!
@PrincessBaby: purple dress! HAHA to your idea for @Mrs. Pen:, it is a really romantic looking bed!

@PrincessBaby: I love the montage (3 pics)! In a similar vein, maybe you could do a slide show for him with some great background music?
@FutureMrsMcK: That is beyond adorable. Gah! Now I'm tearing up. Becoming a mama has made me such a softie!

A card. We aren't V-Day people. I don't even like going out to dinner, prefer a nice dinner at home.
blogger / wonderful cherry / 21628 posts
I'm going to give my DH a card. I'll cook one of his favorite dinners too.

@PrincessBaby: so cute! I like the 3rd one best!
We don't usually exchange valentine's day gifts but I'm going to search on Pinterest for gift ideas from my LO and then maybe get him some chocolate. I'm not feeling ambitious enough to do a hand or footprint craft (the mess!).

@PrincessBaby: Aw those covers are so cute!
We don't really "do" valentine's day...last year I got him a bottle of scotch but that was also the day we found out we were pregnant

For the first time, I'm getting him a piece of artwork I think he'll love! Normally I get him something like sweets.

@lawbee11: that is the sweetest thing ever! I love this idea!!
@PrincessBaby: love the last one - the tongue! ah, so sweet! flashbacks of little DS doing the same ::sniff-sniff:: dammit baby fever
haha

Umm, I'm going to my 6 week postpartum check up a few days before, so assuming all goes well...some intimate time.

Well I pre-ordered season 2 of Game of Thrones dvds for DH...
In the past, I've gotten DH a digital picture frame, framed pics of the kids, a personalized mug, and some daddy t-shirts.

We don't celebrate vday, but I usually get a card just as a nod to it.
@PrincessBaby: I like the one with teh 3 pictures best!

We're not really into Valentine's Day. This year we'll be out of town, so we'll probably just go out to eat while my grandma watches DD.
