Happy Father's Day!

Sunday, June 17th was Chris' first Father's Day! The Saturday beforehand, I got all ready. Put my shoes on. Placed my purse by the side of my chair. And the very second I finished nursing Kyle, I passed him on to dad and sped off to Old Orchard. I was on a two hour mission to pick up some outfits for our first family photo shoot on Monday, as well as for some Father's Day gifts for Chris. By the end of that two hour window, I was completely spent. Every muscle and non-muscle in my body ached from trying to move as frantically as I could, darting all the perfume ladies at Macy's and all the smiley salesmen at Gap. I ended up getting Chris a few new summer work shirts from Gap, and even resisted the urge to get him the awesome one with the sweeps of purple in it for fear that it would end up being yet another one of my failed attempts to try something new. There are quite a few of my try something new projects lying at the bottom of our closet with the tags still on. After nearly 7 years together, I've learned that blue plaid is pretty much the only style that fits Chris's personality. Maybe the occasional greens or solids, but nothing crazy. Chris' dad visited Kyle Friday, and my dad stopped by Saturday night, so we all got a little fatherly bonding time.

We hope everyone had a terrific Father's Day!
