This is the first blog I’ve written after our newest son was born. Now I remember why I didn’t blog much when Michael was born. I was TIRED (and kinda busy). They say “sleep when the baby sleeps”…ok, but when does this little poop factory ever sleep?! Let’s look at last night… It’s 11:06pm and […]
Well, it finally happened. I’m one of those dads who drives around in a minivan. On Saturday, we bought ourselves a Honda Odyssey. Aw…c’mon. With a name like “Odyssey,” we couldn’t make it look any cooler? That’s more like it. So when my wife goes back to work, this will be the vehicle I’ll be […]
Today, I’m continuing my series of blogs taking a more critical eye to books that are aimed at the younger set. This one has been a favorite of mine since I can remember. It’s The Monster at the End of This Book, featuring Grover from Sesame Street. If you had parents that hated you, I’ll […]
Today is voting day here in America. It’s the midterm elections which we traditionally don’t care about. But I’m getting up there in years and I have kids now (had to mention kids in this blog somehow). So I had to muster up enough energy to at least give the tiniest of craps about this […]
As you read this, my wife and I are in the hospital meeting our new son for the first time. Unfortunately, I can’t tell you his name, or weight or any of that stuff because as I type this we are sitting at home and my wife is still very pregnant. I’m writing this in […]
So this month’s blogs are all supposed to be about kids and parenting. But the big day isn’t until tomorrow…so now…we wait and talk about other things. We were singled out as on of the top 100 “Comic” blogs to watch. When I heard this, I thought, “Finally! I’m getting a little recognition as a […]

I’m about to be a father again. It’s very strange. It’s a different sort of feeling than becoming a father for the first time. I sort of know what to expect, but on the other hand it’s going to be such a different dynamic bringing a baby into the family with a child already here. […]
Well the house didn’t look as cool as I’d hoped. But my family and I certainly looked cute in our costumes… Special thanks to Geoff for taking these pictures. And it turned out the Surface was able to due it’s final duty. Add that to the Pirates of the Caribbean ride/movie audio loop I had […]
Recently, I re-posted this pic on Facebook: Man, I can relate. I had such lofty hopes for decorating my house this year for Halloween. I had these big plans to make my house up with a Pirates of the Caribbean theme (I can NEVER spell Caribbean right on the first try! Thank the lord for […]
