Sometimes a person runs across an idea so simple but brilliant that it just totally blows their mind. For me that item is the magnetic onesie from Magnificent Baby. I have no idea how long this company has been around, or even how my family acquired this particular onesie. But from the first […]
Much like the swallows of Capistrano, the reappearance of finer weather means it’s time to return to the local neighborhood park and it can’t come soon enough. Like most parents of a toddler, I knew winter was going to be a long period of being stuck inside and I prepared the best I could. Museum […]
As a dad of a 3-year-old son and a 5-week-old daughter I can tell you straight up that almost all the stuff you read about parenting, from books and magazine, is full of crap. Sure, as a new parent you start off holding your child like they’re a Faberge Egg, but it doesn’t take long […]
The website has been a been a little sparse in the last month and that’s because child number two has officially been introduced into my life. Thanks to that, my life has become a blur; I don’t even remember what Chad or free time looks like. With the return of a newborn to my […]
