Father’s Day Gift Guide- 2017

June 15, 2017

Did you forget that Father’s Day is this Sunday?

Oh, only me then…

Well, I’ll use the new baby as a decent excuse, but what’s your excuse?!?!?!

It’s time to get shopping!!!

I hopped over to Amazon for ya to check out some awesome stuff. Amazon has tons of great products and the majority of them are Prime eligible. Some are even available for Prime Now, depending on where you live.

Let’s be real, you’re an amazon addict if you’re a parent. It saves ya when you need to order diapers or tub toy organizers (like what we needed to do this past week after our daughter Hulk’d her organizer off the wall and broke the bracket!)

-Bath and Body-

Essential Oil Diffusers – Monq $120 for 7

Okay, so this won’t arrive in time to give to Dad for Father’s Day but… it’s still an awesome gift. Like, maybe he won’t mind if you put an IOU in his card.

I have been using Monq for the past 6 months and I love it. I am a big fan of essential oils and love the benefits that they provide. These are portable diffuses so they can be tossed in a bag or pocket. I find that they really help with giving me an afternoon pick me up or helps me relax before bed.

Beard Oil – Mountaineer Brand $12

For the dad’s with some facial hair, a beard oil is a must. It helps keep the hair soft and helps condition your skin underneath the beard.

-Technology- 

Tripod Mount for Smartphones – Studio Neat $30

This is great for the Dad who loves Instagram or who loves to share family memories on Facebook. Having the tripod mount for smartphone devices is great for capturing moments of the whole family together.

And make sure dad snaps a self timer picture of everyone on Father’s Day with his new tripod!

Digital Laser Measure- Bosch $30

I have been using laser measures at work for years. They are so awesome. They are really precise and easy to use. Dad will love having one of these around for his next big home project.

-Food and Drink- 

Grilling Cookbook – America’s Test Kitchen $19

It’s time to fire up that grill! I love cookbooks from America’s Test Kitchen as they are clear and easy to follow. They are packed with great, helpful trips and tricks. You know Dad is gonna love to share his new found knowledge with you while he grills up a big steak, some kabobs, and some beer can chicken.

Smoker Box – Char-Broil – $13

If Dad likes grilling, then he might like to try smoking as well. This smoker box is a great way to start that. You can get all different kinds of wood chips for him too!

6 quart 7 function Pressure Cooker – Instant Pot $100

No place for a grill? Or dad doesn’t enjoy it? Then give him an instant pot. I bet he will love making pulled pork or batches of mac and cheese in there. Shoot, my husband loves that he can hardboil 18 eggs in there at once.

-Staying Active- 

Baby Bike Seat –  CyclingDeals $60

Family bike outings are always a blast. These bike seats are great for young kids so they can join the family. Having them right behind you lets you talk to them and play ‘I Spy’ while out on the trails.

Bike Trailer – Via Velo $400

Have 2 kids? This bike trailer is perfect for both of them.

And if they are doggo kids… they are great to hang out in there too! ha!

Insulated Water Bottle – KINGSSO $12

While Dad is hauling everyone around with his bike, make sure he is well hydrated! A sleek looking water bottle will help him stay hydrated and looking cool.

 

-Wear-

Graphic Tee’s- $20+

These Fun ‘Drink Local‘ Tee’s are great for the Dad’s that love local brews and live in CA, DC, MA, NY, TX, and WI.

This ‘For Fox Sake’ shirt is great for the dad that has a fun sense of humor.

Bike Messenger Bag- Manhattan Portage $120

This messenger bag is great for the stylish Dad who commutes to work on public transportation. It’s compact but still manages to hold a lot of stuff with

Vintage Canvas Backpack- Hotstyle $35 or less

Or maybe a messenger bag isn’t his thing? This backpack is pretty awesome. It’s waterproof and looks really stylish. Plus, it won’t break the piggy bank for less than $35.

Cool Diaper Bag- Diaper Dude $25+

And for the dad’s to be, a cool diaper bag is a must. My husband has a messenger bag from diaper dude and has loved using it over the past few years. It’s comfortable and has plenty of storage, including pockets for smart organization.

Happy Father’s Day 2015

Father's Day Fenway Park 2015

Happy Father’s Day to all the wonderful dads out there!

I hope you enjoyed the day. It’s such a great day for families and dads.

I saw that Fenway Park has an event for Father’s Day so we headed over there to check it out. The plan was to walk on the warning track, but since it was raining, it was not permitted but they had other activities for the kids and dads like guys making balloon animals and caricatures.

We’ve been in Boston for all of these World Series wins! 2004! 2007! 2013!

Autumn was really excited to see Wally and his dad, hence the pointing. However, whenever we approached them her little body would go stiff and I’d feel her legs clench tight around me. The panic would take over. Once we backed up and she was happy again watching them interact with the other Fenway Park visitors.

Oh man, the cutes.

Father's Day Fenway Park 2015_05

After vising Fenway, we went to Rattlesnake Bar and Grille for lunch. It’s one of our favorite places in Boston. The food is just so good, which is why we have been going for years and years. And, let’s not forget that I had a drink featured on their menu too. Woohoo!

While the rain messed up the plans to walk on the warning track, and Autumn was grumpy from her double ear infection, we still had a wonderful time has a family.

Love you Price/Dada!

Father's Day 2014-1

Well, today is Price’s first Father’s Day.

Last year we announced that I was pregnant on Father’s Day with this cute photo.

Oh, what an amazing year it has been!

Today Autumn had swim class and Pricer took her in the water this time. Pricer had a killer crippling headache so I let him rest for a few hours by taking Autumn out for a long walk. Almost 2 hrs! She got more fresh air later as well when we all went for a walk after a steak dinner. Such a nice day.

I hope all the rest of the dads out there had a lovely day as well.
