Just watching my husband holding our daughter has been the most amazing part of having children with him. He is such a manly man so watching him pick out pink clothes is precious.

My favorite memory of my husband and my son is when my son was just born, my husband would just hold him and cuddle with him.  My husband just looked so content, so happy and enamored by our son.  I have so many happy memories, my husband is such a wonderful father.  He's giving, loving, affectionate and he teaches our son to be the same way.  So far, our son is such a compassionate and generous boy.  I give alot of the credit to my husband, he is teaching him how to be a good man and a good person just by being that way himself.

My favorite memory of my dad was relayed to me by both my mother and father. My mom decided to have my ears pierced as an infant instead of waiting until I got a little older. My father was just fine until they pierced my first ear and I started to shriek. He left the room. My mother figured he went to the waiting room and didn't think much of it. After my ears were pierced she left the doctors office (yes doctors pierced ears back then), and she couldn't find Dad. She walked outside the building and he wasn't there either. He was FIVE blocks away in the park on a bench sulking! That is my favorite story about my dad!

When our son was first born, my husband was so thrilled to have a son, that in the hospital he took the baby right from the nurse (even before I held him) and kept walking around with him saying "I've got a boy"  "my little boy".  For the first few days, I couldn't pull him away from our son.  Never expected this from this big teddy bear that I married.

My favorite memory is watching my husband play superbaby around the house with DC.  When she was little (only 4 pounds at birth) it was the cutest thing. Now that she is older she light up with a grin right when he begins to sing the Superman song.  What makes it even more special is he won't do it when anyone is an the room ( he gets embarrased) so I always have to sneek a peek when I can.

Now we are expecting a baby girl, and I cant wait to capture all the moments together.  But my favorite of all will always be hearing my son say "Daddy!"

re: Father's Day Giveaway -- Flip Video Ultra Camcorder

I'm very excited for all the future memories my husband will have with our daughter - due to make her debut Sept 12.  Although I know there will be TONS of memories to catch with him and our baby girl, the person I would love to be considered for this fantastic gift is my dad.  

Growing up, my father worked long hours.  My mother was our primary care taker in every way.  My dad didn't spend a lot of time with us because even when he wasn't working, he just didn't know what to do with kids.  He would be the first to say that his parenting skills are very lacking and he very much regrets not being involved more with our childhood activities.   He is an excellent father to his now adult children but as far as a dad to the little ones, he was sub-par.  

I'll never forget when I told I was pregnant, because he welled up with tears and said that he really wants to do things differently with his grandkids.  He wants to be more involved and enjoy the little moments that he wasn't appreciative of when we were kids.  I can't wait to see him hold my daughter for the first time, take her fishing, play catch with her (all things he was very uncomfortable doing when I was a kid).  He's a wondeful man and will be a wonderful Grandpa.  I know he would love this Flip and use it to capture memories lost.  Thank you!

It helps that it was just two days ago, but it was so funny. DS and DH were both covered in cereal. I followed the instructions on the box for the first feeding and it was really runny.

My favorite Daddy memory happened while I was still pregnant.  I had been sound asleep and for some reason, had woken up.  I heard my husband's voice at my belly -- he was talking to Cameron.  It was so precious and sweet that he doesn't even know to this day that I had witnessed it.  Apparently, he'd been doing it for a while because when Cameron was delivered via C-Section, my husband was the first to hold him.  When our screaming precious baby boy was put in his arms, he started to talk to him and immediately, Cameron stopped crying.

Honestly, everything will be a memory I can't wait for. I love it when he talks to my belly now. I imagine him holding our son/daughter for the first time and get chills. I can't wait until he can cuddle up and read with our child. I can't wait until they can go outside and play baseball or some other sport. Every "first" is  a memory I can't wait to watch them experience together.

Watching him with her and how good he is. It came SOOO natural for him. HE is so calm and caring. It is amazing. How he takes over and gives me a break and takes her to do stuff or just lay on the couch with him

It would have to be the morning after our son was born. We were in the hospital room w/these large floor to ceiling windows and I snagged a shot of my husband gazing at our son. Their two faces were shadowed out by the beautiful sunshine coming through the window panes. Their profiles were identical (of course the baby's being much smaller in size)! At that moment I knew he was in love....

My favorite memory of daddy and baby is when I was cleaning the kitchen one evening and they were watching sports on tv.  They fell asleep on the couch together; both mouths hanging wide open.  I made all kinds of noise while cleaning and even took pictures of them and neither one moved an inch!    

My husband works out of town, so daddy time is precious.  While our baby gets excited when he comes home now...when she's older I can't wait to her race to the door, jump into daddy's arms and squeal "Daddy"!

My boyfriend works in Panama for several months at a time. When he is home, he plays "Rivers of Babylon" on his guitar and sings it to our baby before she goes to bed. I tape recorded him playing it and my baby listens to it and looks at a picture of her daddy. We always say good night daddy and I love you. A few weeks ago, she actually said "Daddy" and pointed at his picture! So, I can't wait until he gets home and gets to hear her say "Daddy".

The joy on my husbands face with his chest out...finally holding his son at the ballpark...priceless...my husbands 38 and we have 3 girls together...we never thought our little man was coming...so he waited a long time for this one...I was very touched that the world...well..at least the Chicagoland area, was able to see it..:>

My favorite dad memory is the time I read what my son had written for a school project about himself and his dad.   He was in third grade, and he wrote that he loved his dad because he plays baseball with him, and sometimes he let him win.  My son also wrote that he liked when his dad "builded" lego things with him. I remember feeling so over-joyed reading that passage.  Thanks for giving me this opportunity to share this memory with you.

My favorite memory is waking up and listening to the baby monitor and hearing my husband talking to our daughter.  He forgot to turn it off and I was able to hear his whole conversation.  While he changes her he talks about current events and what has been happening in the news.  He gives her his view of things and then asks what she thinks.  Never mind that she is only 5 months and couldn't understand a word he was saying.  He just loves talking to her and she loves listening her daddy.  I still smile thinking of it.

My favorite moment to capture (with both of my sons) was the first nap on the sofa with Daddy!  Both times it was the day we came home from the hospital.  They don't go through what we have to during childbirth, but while we have nurses tending to us those 2-3 days postpartum, dads tend to be the ones staying up late with baby -- and not getting much sleep on those lousy fold-out hospital chairs!  By the time everyone arrives home, Dad and baby are pretty exhausted as well.  I loved (and still do) seeing my sons napping on Daddy's chest!

Singing to our daughter is the best ongoing memory I have of watching my husband grow as a parent.  It doesn't matter if the words are just right or the pitch is perfect, it's just the look on her face all lit up when Daddy sings to her.  To me, it's not the big events, but the little things in life that he does for her that makes him the best Dad ever!

My favorite memory of my husband with my daughter had to have been when he brought her over to me after my emergency c-section.  The look in his eyes as he handed me my new  little told me right away he was going to be a wonderful father.  He was so wonderful with her until I was up and about again, changing her, calming her when she cried and giving her all the love in the world.  This is a lot coming from a man who was afraid to hold babies and had never changed a diaper in his life.  Now he’s an old pro and is a wonderful father!

My favorite Daddy-Baby moments are all of the time my husband is playing with our daughter. But, I get emotional when they are snuggled up together on the couch and he reads her a book. Then she flips through the book and shows daddy her favorite pages....she's only one, so most of the pages are her favorite. I also adore watching him put his hand on my pregnant belly or give it a kiss and talk to his unborn son. He is such an involved and loving father! I am SO blessed!

Aften they read a story Keenan gets into bed and my husband tells him stories (using a painting of the US that hangs above his bed). It is so sweet hearing him tell Keenan stories about the Great Lakes being the largest in the US and why peaches grow in Georgia.

Oh, I remember so well....it was cute but maddening. He was the epic neurotic dad. The first week at home, my little infant angel slept alot of course and *every single time* dad was aware of it, he would go to the bassinet and wake the baby. "He's goina die, he's sleeping too much". And the baby would wake up crying...

Sounds horrible but he was just so nervous and in love with his little bundle of joy.

Our baby girl will not be here until July, but one of my favorite memories will always be the love and care he has put into creating our daughter's nursery. He fondly refers to it as "the pink room". He has spent countless hours painting, installing chair rails, making sure everything is just right- and when it's not, he starts all over again. I can't wait to tell our little ladybug how much her daddy loved her right from the start!

He's such a great father, and he LOVES babies to death...I just can't wait until he's holding our baby...a baby that our love brought into this world. We're not pregnant yet, but we just started trying! He always talks about memories he has of Dylan falling asleep on his chest when he got home from work...and it makes me look forward to the day when we can share those memories together with a baby of our own.

I love the way my husband and my two boys wrestle together and make their weird boy sounds...  Even at ages 1 and 3, they already adore and copy everything daddy does and they cry when he has to go to work and run to the door the minute they see his car pull up.  Another favorite moment of mine is when I hear all three of them giggling when my husband gives them their nightly baths and they spend an hour just playing and having fun.  The bond that they have created is so amazing I couldn't have imagined it to be better than this.

That memory is definately the day our first born came home from the hospital. Our oldest was a 31 week preemie and spent many weeks in the NICU. It never really felt real until he was healthy enough to come home.

re: Father's Day Giveaway -- Flip Video Ultra Camcorder

My daughter was born with Group B Strep Meningitis and, being that she was our very first baby, this was one of the most difficult things that my husband and I have had to encounter together. Before she was born, we were both so anxious about what life would be like with a baby and how we would fare as parents, but after this terrible experience, I could see that this situation really drew out the best in both of us as parents. Watching my husband with our brand new daughter was just incredible. I wasn't sure how he was reacting to the whole scenario in the beginning, but watching him stand by her bedside and just stare lovingly at her, I knew he would be a fantastic father...and he is!! He would even take turns with mommy giving our newborn her bottles and changing her diapers - not just in the 2 weeks we spent in the hospital, but even when we got home!! Even with our new baby on the way, he insists on saving 2 weeks of his vacation to spend with mommy and baby once we're able to bring them home. He is an amazing father and I love watching him display that every day as he interacts with our now 1 year old daughter and I look forward to seeing it with our newcomer this winter. =)

my favorite memory so far is definatley watching my husband take care of our daughter while in the hospital. I had to have an emergency c-section and was pretty out of it for at least the first 24 hours. He held her like she was going to break, and he changed her diaper without even the slightest maon of disgust! It was so sweet to see this rough and tough man be so gentle and caring for his little girl!

One of the first really cute "Kodak moments" of my husband and son was while my son was having belly time.  My husband was on his stomach next to him.  The way they were lined up, my son's head was up near my husband's, so you could do a size comparison.  We try to retake the same every once in awhile to capture our son's growth relative to Daddy!

My husband Matthew was going into diabetic ketoacidosis when my son was born. He was with me for two days with no insulin, and ended up being admitted to intensive care before we were released. For me, there is absolutely nothing I will remember more than Joseph's one-week birthday, when his daddy got to hold him again. My husband and my son, cuddled together in the hospital bed, in the cafeteria, in the car on the way home. "I have to make up for lost time. I've been away his whole life!" Matthew said.  could have cried. In fact, I did.

My favorite Dad-with-Baby memory actually happened just about a week ago.  I found my husband rocking our daughter Jenna in her room and he was singing    a Coldplay song Green Eyes to her.  I was so overwhelmed with emotion that I think I will remember that moment for the rest of my life.  I never told him I was watching him.  It seemed like such an intimate moment between the two of them, because Jenna was just starring at him with wonderment, and he was looking at her with such love, that I want that to stay within him as something that is his and only his unless he wishes to share it with me.  Oh boy, here I go, tearing up again!  Thank you for letting us all look within ourselves to think about this and then share with you all!

My favorite memories of my husband with our kids is when he takes them out individually and for some daddy time, they each get to choose what they want to do with daddy. They usually want to eat at a restaurant and talk and then get a toy or new thing from the store. This is such a special time for both our kids and my husband. They always look forward to their daddy and me day! They come home and tell us what fun they had and my husband tells me something they talked about! It's really something we will all cherish!

My husband is an industrial designer. So he is very concerned about the materials and parts of everything our daughter comes in contact with. But when we went to register at a store while I was still pregnant, I didn't expect him to be making the big decisions. He spent hours...HOURS testing and inspecting strollers, high chairs, cribs, pack and plays, car seats, and all sorts of things. He was even reading ingredient labels on baby wash and diaper rash ointment! It is a memory I will always remember.

My favorite daddy moment is when he puts her to sleep. He lays her on his big belly and she's out! This gives me free time to do normal wife and mommy duties, as well as pay attention to my six year old.

If the dad's pass out, they are basically on their own!  My husband can hardly stand the sight of blood, and I knew he would be the one to get sick or pass out in the delivery room. Wrong.

He was right with me the entire birth process. He was even telling me along with the nurse how he could see some dark hair  on our baby's head! To see my husband be brought to tears at the site of our first son touched me more than anything!  Cindi

re: Father's Day Giveaway -- Flip Video Ultra Camcorder

My favorite Daddy with baby memories are watching my own father, a man who always put on a tough facade, holding his first grandchild, caressing and kissing him with infinite tenderness. My Dad never let the world see his sweet, gentle side, but being in that baby's presence transformed him and they adored each other. I only wish that we had captured those moments on video; we kept meaning to do it, but the camera was hard to figure out, and before we got a chance to do it, my father passed away. I'm so sorry that the little boy he adored will never be able to see for himself how much he meant to his grandfather. I've learned my lesson, though ... now I have a camera that is easy to use and I try to always keep it handy. Now I can capture every special moment and, more importantly, I can share my memories with those I love.

Our first child looks exactly like me and NOTHING like my husband.  Our second child,  a little girl, looks like Daddy.  He so wanted a child who looked like him that he walks around holding her up so that their faces are next to each other and says"Don't we look a like?"  all the time.  (This has been going on for 5 months)  Pretty soon she's not going to like it.  This would be perfect to record how much they look like each other!!

Neither of our parents have any video of either of us when we were first born, and it would be an awesome experience to show our child what they were like from the very beginning. So many memories happen early on and it would be great to have something like this to capture them!

My husband has given me a belly "massage" every day since we found out - he is so cute - ha asks "did he calm down yet? Should I sing to him?"

My favorite Daddy memory with the baby was when Daddy first learned to carry her in the sling...and then they became inseparable from that point on.

My favorite memory goes to the hospital when I delivered.  There are photos (somewhere) of him holding our daughter for the first time.  I swear, he was about to cry.  He was with me in the OR (emergency Cesarean), and he cried as the surgeons brought her out.  The bond was already forming with her Daddy; it was a beautiful site.

I look forward to seeing every moment he has with our new baby when he/she gets here. I know there will be plenty of moments to cherish.. from changing diapers, to feedings, to outtings :)

My favorite daddy and baby memory is when he held her for the first time.  He looked so nervous!  But after a few minutes he got comfortable and he just melted :)

My favorite daddy memory would have to be when my husband was holding Jadyn and making silly noises and Jadyn smiled--his first ever smile! Jadyn hasn't stopped smiling since but he keeps a special one just for his daddy.

My favorite memory is when my husband was changing our baby's diaper and he laughed for the very first time.  It was so exciting for him!  I was in the next room and you could hear how happy he was right away.  I think he is always nervous that I will get to see all his firsts and he will miss out on most things, since he works and I am home.  But babies will surprise you!

My husband is a carpenter, so he's a pretty solid man with large, rough hands. It was amazing to watch this big burly man hold our tiny twins for the first time when they came out of the neonatal isolet and were breathing on their own. Our daughter just fit in the palm of his hand and she immediately looked up at him and then curled up and fell into a blissful sleep. I had never seen him cry until that day.

So far my favorite moments have been when my baby mocks her dad.  At just five months she already tries to copy him.  He sticks his tongue out and she will do it back.  Now she's learning to copy the fish face he makes at her.  Sooo cute!!!

When I was recovering from my c-section, my DH was taking care of the baby pretty much by himself in the hospital. He changed her first few diapers, brought her to me to feed her, and rocked her to sleep. It made for some great first memories!

I can't wait to see my boy and his daddy out at the race track together go karting. My dh grew up racing karts and his eye's just light up when he see's his son getting excited to hear those go kart engines."Racing is something you learn its born into your blood" my dh says. Looking at my boy's eyes when he see's those karts, I know it certainly is.

The first - and ONLY - diaper he ever put on our daughter was priceless!  He did not overlap the sides to make it fit.  It was six inches from her tummy!  To make it funnier, he put a pair of cowboy boots on her!  We've got the snapshot, but it would be nice to have a camcorder!  Thanks for such a great giveaway!

One that really stands out to me is when my daughter was about 5 months old. Her daddy always tickled her, but all she would do was smile. One night before bed he tickled her and she started making the goofiest giggle. He yelled, "What the heck?" and started tickling her some more. She kept giggling and laughing and he would stop and start to tickle her again. It was really sweet that he got her to make her first real giggles.
