Our first child was born in October of 2010. Time is flying by and he is changing so much! This blog is dedicated to documenting all the special moments and milestones we share together as a family.

First Father's Day

Today we celebrated Amel's first father's day.  I think he had a good day!  Bean and I woke him up early with Mr. Bean handing Tata a card.  Bean and I had a couple other surprises for Amel.  We made him a hand print and foot print that we put into a shadow box.  We will add a photo later.  Getting a hand and foot print from an eight month old was no easy task! We also gave Amel a Mike's Hard Lemonade keychain.  Anyone who knows Amel, knows this is an appropriate gift for him.

After a leisurely morning, we headed to brunch at Phoenix Palace for some delicious dim sum.  We met four other couples who were also celebrating father's day for the first time (actually one couple was celebrating for the 2nd time).  For dessert of course we had ... cheesecake.  I think the cheesecake made Amel's day.  He has been avoiding sugar and enjoyed the special treat!

Bean also gave Tata the gift of taking two good naps today. I napped with him, which gave Amel some time to relax.  This evening we spent a little time out on our newly done patio.

I am thankful to have a loving husband who works hard for us and looks out for us.  Maika and I are very blessed.  I know I don't tell my husband often enough how much he is appreciated and loved.  Today I want to make sure he knows we love him with all our hearts.  Not just today, but everyday!
