This morning was filled with fun. We woke up at 6:30 as Miss Snuggle Pants was ready to socialize. I brought her in, along with Daddy's cards. Katherine gave him hers all by herself. She's very into grabbing anything and everything within reach - almost dumped a full soda on me at dinner as she snagged my straw going by- so was a bit reluctant to let him actually have it. We manged to pry her tiny hand open, and give it to Daddy. She has definitely inherited her Dad's vice-like grip!

After Nathan opened cards I sent him on a treasure hunt or sorts to go find his gifts. The first clue led him to his garage fridge where an Ipod hard case was waiting. Then he was off to the diaper bin (clean diapers, I'm not that mean) to get a car charger, then off to the dog food container where plastic covers waited, then off to the kitchen cabinets where a gift card to Itunes awaited, and finally into the paper shredder where he found his new Ipod Nano! He loved the game and I thought it was fun too. He'd really been wanting an Ipod, so he was super excited. After he played with it for awhile we all headed out to breakfast. Katherine absolutely insisted upon wearing her Daddy's Girl tank top, so we let her :)
This next picture is just funny. For those of you who know my husband well this may not come as any surprise, but for those of you who don't know him well, he does this stuff all the time!
Nathan's phone charger died a few weeks ago so we went to the Verizon store to get him a new phone as his current one sucks anyways. The salesman told us if we could hang on until July we would be eligible for a new free phone. We said well okay then, we'll use the car charger for the next few weeks. Well the car charger broke yesterday and his phone was dead, so Nathan got creative. He took the battery out of the boat, hooked up jumper cable to it, took his phone apart and hooked up the cables to his battery and charged his phone! I don't even know how he thought of it, but it worked!
