For Thanksgiving this year, Scott shared photos with Phan and their son Drew at their holiday meal. "I’m thankful for family and food…lots of food. #HappyThanksgiving everyone!" Scott captioned a carousel of images from their holiday.

In one photo, Scott kissed Linda and in another he held up Parker, who had adorable fruit-themed pajamas on.

The last photo showed off their dessert spread — which included Yorkshire pudding, macarons, and at least three different pies.

In a snippet of a special Father's Day interview on his website, shared with PEOPLE, the HGTV star talked about some of the challenges he's faced in his first year of parenting, explaining he and Phan found the "early stages" difficult.

"I was back in school finishing my Executive MBA and I had to fly out to Boston two months after Parker was born for two weeks," he recalled. "The early stages of being born is a tough time to leave a parent solo."

"[Linda] was good at letting me know what she needed to tackle everything, but after doing that it made me understand how easy it could be to just let Linda take the reins on everything Parker — I'm at work all day and she's with him, so it's easy for me to forget that I'm a parent here too and I have certain responsibilities," he shared.

For his son's first birthday, Scott commemorated the special day with a video montage of various clips from Parker's first year of life, set to the song "Never Grow Up" by Taylor Swift.

The little one's first birthday also coincided with the couple's 5th wedding anniversary.

"I can't believe our little guy is already 1 year old! Happy birthday Parky ❤️," he captioned the Instagram Reel.
