Father's Day Mini Me

Father's Day is on Sunday, June 17th and I look forward to spending the day with my boys doing something my husband enjoys - which will be watching the World Cup. Yes, this Father's Day Albert and Mario will be wearing matching soccer jerseys as they cheer on their favorite teams. It should be of little surprise my boys will be matching this Father's Day, since I've spoken about my love for coordinating outfits and my love for gender neutral trends since starting this blog, so if you follow my blog you know how much I love unisex everything and love when Mario can be me or my husband's Mini Me. Gender neutral trends for daddy and his little ones that I am loving are coordinating witty graphic t-shirts and, of course, team jerseys - here is a round-up of some of my favorites that includes the Argentina jersey - my husbands favorite team.

Whatever you wear or do this Father's Day, enjoy your day with your husband, father and/or partner and let them know how much you love them and appreciate them & everything they do!

XOXOXO, Petit-Swag

Pop & Tot at the Amsterdam Zoo

This past weekend we took a road trip to Amsterdam, one of my favorite cities and only a 2 1/2 hour drive from Düsseldorf. Amsterdam is a great city to visit with kids - it is a top destination for families - you can take a canal cruise, visit a working windmill, and there are world-class museums, historical treasures and outdoor activities like biking and boating.

While in Amsterdam we strolled through the city, took a canal cruise, visited a Lego store and went to the Amsterdam Zoo. The Artis Royal Zoo was the first zoo to be established in the Netherlands, built in 1838, and it’s located right in the center of Amsterdam. The Artis Royal Zoo is one of the oldest zoos of mainland Europe, but it is not just a zoo - it also has an aquarium and a planetarium! We had a blast and loved our day at the Amsterdam Zoo!

Enjoy my Pop and Tot in their cutest t-shirts ever at the Artis Royal Zoo.

Father's Day Mini Me

This Sunday is Father's Day, and I look forward to spending the day with my boys.  We will be celebrating Father's Day watching the World Cup. On Sunday there are 3 matches, including a match between Argentina and Bosnia & Herzegovina, and Argentina is my husbands favorite country. So yes, I already have Albert and Mario's coordinating outfits planned- of course Albert will wear his Argentina 2014 Home Soccer Jersey and Mario will wear his Argentina 2014 Youth Home Soccer Jersey.  The jerseys were Albert's birthday presents, but I gave them to him early so he and Mario can wear matching jerseys during the World Cup while he cheers for his favorite team. In addition to wearing matching Soccer Jerseys, I have also pulled together some of my favorite coordinating outfits for the Father in your life and his little ones, inspired by of course my Boys!

Happy Father's Day-- whatever you wear or do, enjoy your husband, father and/or partner, and let them know how much you love them and appreciate them & everything they do!

XOXOXO

Father's Day Gifts

Father's Day is next Sunday, June 15th so I thought it would be nice to share with you some of my favourite Father's Day Gifts. If you follow my blog you know I love all holidays (a lot), but my husband, well, not as much as me. He doesn't like all the attention and hoopla, but he does love being a Father to our son Mario, and I think he likes the love Mario and I give him and receiving gifts more then he admits. I give him small tokens of our love for Father's Day, because he doesn't love sparkly things and fancy things as much as I do. For Albert's first Father's Day I gave him a Personalized Hand Stamped Key Chain, the second year I got him a Olivetti Valentine S Red Portable Typewriter that I found on Ebay, and last year I got him a Herschel Supply Co. Pop Quiz Backpack. But, like me, Albert's Favourite Father's Day Gift Ever is our Son Mario!

With this Free Printable Father’s Day Poster from confettisunshine.com you can skip the usual card and go for something a little more unique and a lot more fun.Your kids can write a bunch of notes to their dad, and it works really well since kids like to write big words. And wouldn't your little ones be excited to give Dad a huge Poster on Father's Day?

These Father’s Day Printable Typography Glasses from mrprintables.com are so fun to make and wear on Father’s Day. I think it is a fun way for kids to show their love! The blank template can be used for any color you like, but I love the classic black geek glasses look. In fact, I love them so much I just may have to make these for my husband for Father's Day... these geeky typography glasses will put a smile on his face!

This Dad Customized Keychain Gift is a hand stamped keychain that has a customized year on it for Dad. The tag is made out of solid aluminum so it is very lightweight. This is a sentimental and masculine Keychain for Dad.

This J.Crew HARRY'S™ FATHER AND SON SHAVE SET is from the makers of some of the handsomest, sharpest razors around (think ergonomic handles and German-engineerd blades), Harry's is a go-to for exceptional shaving products at a reasonable price—and now junior can get in the game with Dad.The kit comes with the chrome Winston razor for Dad, a pretend razor for his mini me and a handy shaving guide to make sure they hit all the steps. It's the ideal gift for Father's Day!

These J.Crew NIKE® VINTAGE COLLECTION WAFFLE® RACER SNEAKERS is a collaboration with J.Crew and Nike. The Waffle Racer, originally introduced in 1974, is named after its breakthrough rubber treads (an early prototype was made with rubber poured into a waffle iron). This is an exact replica of the vintage style, from the waffle-pattern treads to the mix of suede and nylon. Sneakers are cool and are a perfect gift for Father's Day because Dad's are always on the go.

This Mophie juice pack plus Made for iPhone 5s/5 is just one of the many Mophie battery cases with added power and protection made for Smart Phones. With Mophie, Dad can power through with up to 100% extra battery and your choice of 16GB or 32GB of extra storage. There is a Mophie for every Dad, whether he has an iPhone, Samsung, Smartphone, Tablet, iPad, iPad mini, or iPod.

These Marshall Headphones are from Marshall, the brand that has carried the heavy sound of rock and roll over the world for half a century with their amps. Marshall continues to push the boundaries of loud into the unknown, bringing the stadium experience home to the individual listener with their headphones and speakers. These are the coolest, most rocking, masculine headphones for Dad this Father's Day!

This Nike USA 2014 Authentic Away Soccer Jersey and USA 2014 Youth Away Soccer Jersey is the perfect gift since the FIFA World Cup is starting on Thursday June 12th, and is the globe's premier sporting event that brings out the soccer fan in everyone. I love getting Dad and his mini me matching Jerseys so they can watch the matches and cheer for their favourite team together. I am doing this for Albert and Mario, but I think I will be getting the Brazil 2014 Authentic Home Soccer Jersey for them!  And if your Dad isn't a Soccer fan, you can get him and his mini me matching Jersey's of his favourite team, whomever they may be, for Father's Day!
