i felt a little bad about father's day this year.
usually, in our house, mother's day is a day off from motherly duties and father's day is a day off from fatherly duties. this year, however, was a little different. all hands were on deck. carter has still been waking 3 times a night and chris had to take at least one turn getting up with him. plus, we had a gorgeous wedding of some dear friends and chris was an usher.... meaning i'd watch the boys as much as possible, but chris was going to have to take his turn watching the boys so i could get ready.
then we went to brunch. we (like most people going to brunch) had to wait 45 minutes for a table and another hour for our food. here is austin entertaining us while we waited.... and graham enjoying his cold green eggs & ham.
plus, we got him a gift. a painting. but it was clear he didn't love it. as he will tell you, he doesn't hate it. hmmmm. at least i know my husband is going to be honest with me.
and after all that... the ONE gift i knew he would love was stuck on my computer. which had crashed. so after 3 hours spent on the phone with apple care (all while chris was completing fatherly duties) it was time to leave for the wedding and chris had had a totally stressful day full of fatherly duties and completely lacking in decent gifts.
i spent another few hours on the phone with apple care this morning so finally we could give him a father's day present he will appreciate....
