Happy Daddy's Day 2010

Yes, its Father's Day but I prefer to call it as Daddy's Day since Rachel call Shawn 'Daddy' like I call my Daddy. Ok, she can't say it yet but when she can, I'm sure its 'Daddy'.

It has been a tiring weekend... just like any other weeks. And now, we have to celebrate Father's Day for 3! My daddy, father-in-law and Shawn. But of course, they deserve the attention and treat, so no complain, especially when it's Shawn's first.

Didnt bring him to anywhere special because I was so busy last week for a 4 day course that I forgot to make reservation. When I called Morton's on friday night, the only available timeslots for dinner was 5pm or 10pm. *opps*. Good thing Shawn didnt hold against me (knowing that I am forever tired nowadays). Ok, I will bring him to Morton's next weekend instead. Why bother squeezing with other daddies and pay premium for the same meal on Father's Day? *roll eyes innocently*

So what's make a good daddy? Hmm.. I guess there's no definition to it but the reasons Shawn is a Super Dad are plenty...

>> He wakes up in the morning to change Rachel's diaper when she cries automatically
>> He is forever buying toys for Rachel and nothing for mummy (he says I have too many bags though they are countable compared to Rachel's mountain of toys)
>> He washes her up every night before bed time (but forget to put back the bucket of water and wash cloth)
>> He makes milk and takes turn to feed her (and sometimes fall asleep while holding on to the bottle)
>> He helps to sterilize bottles and clean the sterilizer monthly
>> He bathes her on weekends sometimes (he got to leave some days for mummy-rachel bonding too)
>> He prints Rachel's photo immediately when requested but if the picture is mine, he can take years (if i dont nag)
>> He buys nice & sometimes expensive camera lens to take nice pictures of Rachel (ok, I know thats not the only reason but I put it in blog to remind him what he told me :P)
>> He coaxes Rachel back to sleep in the middle of night and ask me to go back to bed (best point so far)

Too many good points and I simply cant list them all but of course, there're also bad daddy traits like singing the wrong lullaby lyrics or too much babies' talk... but he is still Rachel's SUPER DADDY SHAWN.

Cheers to all daddies out there. And may the daddies stay forever lovable and doting! Same to Shawn... I shall do a checklist of the above every month. Title can be stripped anytime! *Ha*
