Daddy's Day

We had quite a bit of time to prepare for Father's Day this year. Ryan was away to Youth Conference Thurs-Sat. (possibly pics of that to come later). Ryan already got his geft several weeks earlier. He got a week eater and wanted to play with it. Anyway, because it was just me and Jaden for several days we got right on our other father's day plans.

I thought I'd let Jaden create something for Daddy like he did last year, but this time I was more prepared, what happened last year? you can see that here: http://ryanandrachelyancey.blogspot.com/2008/06/daddys-card.html
So this time I decided to get some finger paint. Washable it said, but I was ready just in case. I put garbage bags over EVERYTHING! Jaden knew something was up and was pretty excited!
At first he wasn't sure what to do with the paint. "Eat it? I am in the high chair after all." But it only took me to dip his finger in the paint then on the paper, and he was on his way!

I told Jaden to show me his hand. He was happy to oblige. So proud to be messy!

Here's our works of art. Yup I had to get in on the action too. Jaden thought that was pretty funny.

Clean up was a snap! Just threw all the garbage bags away, and what do you know, it really was washable paint! Even came out of my shirt! (yeah I should have extended my precautions to myself. hee)

My other idea to spoil Ryan came from Bakerella. cute little cupcake hamburgers and sugar cookie fries. What was I thinking? I don't bake! It was so hot from all the baking and my feet hurt so bad, i had many things go not quite right, but Saturday morning I did get something close enough to eat.

Cute huh? Here's the instructions from Bakerealla, just don't compare mine too closely okay?

We were happy to spoil Dad a bit. Ryan is such a good father! Jaden missed him lots while he was gone and was so happy to play with him all day Sunday. I love that Ryan helps me out so much around the house, he'll even change a poopy diaper now and again. What a great husband I have. Jaden and Bella are so lucky to have him as a Daddy!
