Ode to Dad on Father's Day

Just wanted to take some time to show my appreciation to my husband for his mad-skills at being a totally awesome dad! I've loved his enthusiasm for being a dad, even before we had Erik, Pawly was so excited and anxious to become a dad.

Here's a (small) list of the great Dad qualities my husband has:

He's a great snuggler!

(This was such a precious moment. Erik-about 1yr here-had stopped falling asleep in our arms, so this was a rare occasion for Paul.)

He likes to have fun!

He and Erik at "the Dairy Day's" parade.



He loves sweets!

Sugar cookie time.




He's a good teacher! (so patient)

I think Erik's getting the hang of it, at least he figured out how to eat most of the dough. :)





He has a heart full of love!

Erik looks like he's saying, "oohh dad, you're so great!" yeah, I think that is what he said.

We love you Daddy! Happy Father's day!!!

Family picture this morning after breakfast in bed.

Daddy with all his gifts this morning. He got a new tie from Erik-really, he helped pick it out-and the movie Princess Bride from me. Oh and I also made the blueberry muffins, yummy!
I tried to play a joke on Pawly this morning. I had just put the muffins in the oven and I gave Erik a pop-tart and a banana, we headed into wake Daddy up and give him his gifts and trick breakfast. While he was opening gifts, Erik and I ate the banana and Paul was left with the pop-tart. Before he could dig in I told him that I had made a better breakfast-although he kinda wanted the pop-tart. Too bad Pawly you got home cooking this morning.

I think he had a great Father's Day-he's a great Father!
