What's everyone doing for DH for Father's Day

I want to get DH something for father's day but I am stumped. DH was so generous to me for Mother's day - he bought me the diaper bag that I wanted from himself and beautiful earrings from the baby Chat Icon . I am not going to be returning to work after our LO arrives so this is really my last opportunity to buy him a nice gift with "my own" money. I just don't know what is appropriate. He definitely will not be expecting me to spend as much as he did as I make a lot less money, and he is pretty easy to please, but still, I'd like to get him something nice or at least small but sentimental.

I was thinking of maybe buying a bbq for him or is that too cliche?? We just bought a new house and it is being renovated from top to bottom so we need pretty much everything. I figured since the summer is coming, we would def be in need of an outdoor grill, but I don't know if that is a selfish gift bc it really is for both of us and not just him. And then I'm worried that the one I get him won't be what he had in mind.

I think a BBQ is a good idea.

My plan for my husband is Tosh (comedian) tickets...a Star Wars book...and two shirts he really wants.

Re: What's everyone doing for DH for Father's Day

Im hoping my LO makes his/her appearance a little before fathers day because i know this fathers day is going to be hard on DH (altho he is going to be a father real soon) because his father just passed away a few months ago. so it would kinda be nice to have had the baby to give him something to be happy about!

I want to get him something but I feel a little superstitious like I shouldnt. I think I will wait until next year when LO is here.

I was prego with DS in 09 for Mother's Day so DH didn't get me anything. We're also supersticious. I got a nice card from my mom and something for the hospital to wear.

DS was born the end of May so I did get him a 1st Father's Day picture frame with a pic od DS and DH

This father's day I'm prego with #2, but I already have one. I did get a nice Mothers Day gift last year and this year. Still not 100% sure what I'm getting DH

Grill is a great idea!

I think the grill is a PERFECT idea. If we were allowed to BBQ on our balcony, DH would be over the moon with a gift like that!
