Father's Day is almost here! If you're anything like me, you usually wait until the last minute to get something and then feel stressed that you didn't think of something more meaningful in advanced. So, in honor of Charlie's first Father's Day, I put together this Father's Day Gift Guide based on all of the things YOU all said you're getting your dads or spouses this Father's Day.

What I'm Getting Charlie
As you probably know if you're here, this is Charlie's first Father's Day! I had a really tough time deciding what to get him. I wanted to do something that made him feel special as an individual, to thank him for everything he's done the past few months, but also wanted to get him something related to being a dad. I landed on a mix of the two:
- Gift card for a massage (he deserves it and will LOVE this)
- Matching Little Sleepies Star Wars pajamas for him and Eleanor (I got this onesie for Eleanor and this pajama shirt for Charlie). If you don't have any Little Sleepies pajamas at this point for your baby, you NEED them - they're SO soft, and I've been told the adult PJs are just as soft.
- Custom personalized book from Hooray Heroes. This site is very cute - you can include different names and make the characters. Charlie reads a book to Eleanor every night before bed, and I think he'll love having a custom one about the two of them and their adventures.
- A picture frame with a picture of the three of us for his desk at work.
Father's Day Gift Guide: What You're Getting
I did a question box on my Instagram and compiled a list of everything you said you're getting YOUR dads and husbands to turn into a Father's Day Gift Guide, rather than just telling you what I think you should get. Some of you mentioned that the fathers in your life love physical gifts, and some of you said they love experiences. I've broken this Father's Day Gift Guide into multiple categories. Here are some of the things you all said.
