For Father's Day, I bought DN a personalised a singlet that said "daddy's lil devil - der nen". A present for the baby on Father's Day? Where's the logic in that, you might ask. So, to understand the reason for my purchase, you must listen to this story.
Before DN was born, a cousin gave us some hand-me-downs, an assortment of tees, singlets, socks, booties, you get the picture. In this little pile were 3 tees with the words "I love mom" on the front. Needless to say, DN wore them a lot (even the pink one, hahaha). There were 3, so I could rotate them, hohoho. Of course, when DN wore them, he had to wear the matching "I love mom" mitten too right? Coordination is SO important and underrated.
PF didn't buy that.
So whenever we went out, we would scour the baby department looking for "I love dad" tees. But we couldn't find any! We did find "I love dad" mittens, but PF wasn't satisfied with a proclamation on a piece of fabric that would get flung around by the baby or eaten by the dog. I think he wanted something emblazoned on the chest and in neon colours and flashing lights. Of course, there is no such thing, so mittens it was.
Until Flash ate them. Then, DN outgrew those 3 little tees and PF was very pleased. We were even.
So, when I found this "lobang" to personalise tees, I ordered one for PF. What a perfect Father's Day present! (see the video on below on 17 June to check out the tee)
Of course, I ordered one for myself too. But I had to hide the tee from PF for an appropriate length of time (2 weeks) before revealing this purchase otherwise PF's present would have lost its effect. Judging from PF's reaction when he saw my tee, an appropriate length of time would have been "forever".
Yes, he wasn't pleased. And I don't think this post will placate his fragile ego either!

That's my little angel!
(I keep typing "angle", grrr...)
Awww...
Can't get enough of those wings!
We were at V's place for a BBQ and that's DN and PF in the function room. Check out DN's nifty little foot, heh.
A close-up of DN in his little shoes. :D
