We now have gardeners too. »

For those of you who follow these posts, you may remember Kiera and Reese helping with the vacuuming. Well we have now trained them to garden. With enough time, we should have them completely trained to take over all our household duties. Kids are fantastic!

Children’s products we love and hate. »

I get a lot of people who ask me what products I liked, loved or hated for the kids. I haven’t ever kept a list, but I’m thinking of adding some for reference for the newby parents out there. If you have products you love or hate, drop me a line and I will add [...]

Oh yea! 4 for 4. And I’m not talking sports. »

That’s right, you heard me! (A shout out to to Sarah for the saying) We are just coming off a 4 for 4 on earaches for the girls. I think this much fun should be illegal. Call your elected officials and tell them they should make it illegal to have this much fun taking care [...]

First birthday plans in full swing – Thanks for coming, now get out. »

You would think we had invited diplomats and world leaders to our kids 1st birthday open house. We talk nightly about all the stuff we have to do to get ready. Then I started to think about this. (Big mistake) Hey, these are little kids, they don’t give a crap about eating the stuff we [...]

Forget about the kids, Formula 1 season is in full bloom. »

Okay, I can’t really forget about the kids. And I don’t want to, but I can’t wait until they get as excited about Formula 1 racing as I do. And if they don’t – “Go outside and play. Daddy is watching Formula 1.” That’s right, I am NOT a Nascar Dad. I just can’t get [...]

Out of the woods … oh wait a new situation. »

Well we are out of the woods on the earache situation. Kiera slept through the night (almost.) and just as importantly, we got a decent nights sleep. As a celebration Julia took the kids to the park today. (Yes it is a nice warm day out here in California) She smeared sunscreen all over the [...]

Oh, that was fun! »

My Wife and I spent the better part of last night awake. She was probably awake more than I. I tried to get some sleep for a Client meeting this morning. Kiera has a temperature that comes and goes. She has been working on this since Sunday morning. We thought it might be teething. Now [...]

Donald Trump gives parenting advice? Really? »

I guess I can stop blogging now. The Donald is giving parenting advice on Yahoo Answers. Does anybody actually believe he spends any REAL time raising any of his kids. Okay, maybe in the beginning when he was worth only a few million dollars. (Actually, was he ever only worth a few million dollars?) I [...]

Getting the cold shoulder from my kids. »

I guess I work too much. I try to spend time in the morning with my girls. We usually get up around 5:30 a.m. and hang out together until 6:15 a.m. or 6:30 a.m. playing on the bed together. Then I get up and go to work. I get home around 4:30 p.m. or 5:00 [...]

It does get easier over time. »

Hey all of you new Dads out there. As a father of 9 and one half month old twin girls, I just wanted to say, it does get easier over time. If you have read my earlier postings, you surely realize it was a bit of a trial of patience getting through the first few [...]
