Need a Xmas Gift idea from one of the Daddy's
I was out shopping and had this relevation that I needed to get a gift from my son (16 months) to his Mommy.
I was thinking like a picture frame from Things Remebered or something..I could put one of his recent pix in etc and take another later...
but does any of the other fathers have any ideas?

I think this Christmas I will have my son give his mom a bottle of tequila and a hotel room near some place fun for the night.
The card will read something like "sorry for all those sleepless nights, but how about one more with dad"  |

what does she do to relax once the big guy is down for the night? maybe get something from him that helps her unwind.
I just asked the wife and she recommended maybe getting a hand-print/cast and have it mounted with "Christmas '07" or something to that effect.
A Professional family portrait might be a nice idea too.... |

I dont think I blew it last year, but honestly, I dont remeber much about last christmas. I was REALLY sick, I missed most of the day, and most of the time around it was a blur.. I dont even recall what I bought her, never mind what Alex "bought her"
I just want to make sure if I DID blow it, I dont contiue the trend.

There are plenty of those frames out there under 100 bucks, that is a great idea.
I am getting one for my office, the 7 in will fit in here nicely.

I second the Mother's Ring.I had it wrapped in a box in another box in another box etc etc.By the time my wife got to the ring my boys (ages like 3 and 5) were going insane.It was the greatest .She was so touched.A real can't miss idea.

I agree with the sentimental stuff. I've had my son get my wife everything from a Precious Moments figurine like the one in the link, to a really nice frame with a black and white pic of him to a very expensive Tiffany bracelet. She likes the frame and figurine best because they are more sentimental.
