Fathers Day

The 2nd of September 2012 was Jamie's first fathers day.

I let the sleep routine slip a little so Jamie and i could have a sleep in. I fed River at 6:30am and we got to sleep in till 9am. As River was starting to stir i picked him up out of his basinet took his swaddle off and plopped him next to Jamie and said "Happy first fathers day baby"! I watched as Jamie's sleepy face lit up as he looked at his son, was so heart warming i almost burst with love.

River was very generous for his first fathers day and got his daddy some Bunnings vouchers so he could buy some tools and a big bucket of M&M's. Daddy was very happy.

As we lay in bed playing with River we had propped him up against a pillow so he could sit up and see us. After about 5 mins of fun River got that all to familiar face on and 2 seconds late boom River did a little present in his pants for daddy. We sat there for a few minutes, as all of you who have a baby know that first initial poop isn't usually the last. As we sit there and wait, River goes to town again in his pants, but this time before we know it, it starts coming out the sides and all over the bed....YAY! All we can do is laugh. Jamie scoops him up and takes him into his room to get changed as i run around trying to find a cloth to clean up before it hits the mattress.

After our little poop episode we all got ready to go out for breakie. As jamie and River were waiting for me to get changed they were having a little play on the couch. I hear Jamie laughing and saying "River" in that i can't believe you just did that tone, as i poke my head around the corner i see that River had given Jamie another little fathers day present in the form of puke all down his arm.


Breakie was lovely, we went to Little St Kilda in Palm Beach. We ordered our usual 2 cappuccino's in a mug and 2 breakfast burrito's. As we sat waiting for our breakfast, i looked at Jamie with River on his lap and i couldn't believe how lucky i was. I had an amazing partner who loved me for me and who couldn't be a better father and i had a son who was so funny and beautiful and wise beyond his years.

We had an awesome morning for Jamie's first fathers day i could watch those 2 playing and laughing at each other forever. I look forward to many more fathers day's and many more amazing memories with my little family.
