Another Weekend Wrap Up

On Friday, my son told me that he wasn't coming over for the weekend. Sam and I decided that we'd take Ella somewhere to burn off some energy (Andrew came along for the ride). When I got home from work Saturday morning, I stayed up and we all went to the Mid-Michigan Children's Museum in … Continue reading Another Weekend Wrap Up →

Weekend Wrap Up

What a crazy weekend! As much as I hate not getting a lot of sleep, I have to admit that some of the funniest stories I write about are due to lack of sleep. Take Saturday for example: We needed groceries and a few things, so Sam went to the store. On her way home, … Continue reading Weekend Wrap Up →

Funny Photo Memory

Due to my lack of creativity this week, I have turned to a daily writing prompt to spark a blog idea. The prompt that struck me was this: Find a picture that brings back a funny memory just by looking at it. Tell us about it.

It’s Just Around The Corner

Spring! I enjoy stupid puns. Every time someone says that spring is just around the corner, I think of the above picture!

When I left to go … Continue reading It’s Just Around The Corner →

A Two-riffic Birthday!

Yesterday, I blogged about it being Ella's last night as a one year old. Today (2-10) she officially turned two! On one of the Facebook "dad" groups I am a part of, someone posted that "Time is a thief." That is so true. I am still scratching my head and wondering how she could be … Continue reading A Two-riffic Birthday! →

The Last Year Has Been One-derful

When I get home in the morning, my little girl will be two years old. My wife probably didn't intend on making me cry, but she sent me a picture of her sleeping in her crib with the message "Last picture as a 1 year old," but she did. I wish I had taken the … Continue reading The Last Year Has Been One-derful →

Mixed Emotions

If I had to describe today with emoji's, I'd need a lot of them! Exhaustion - Tuesdays are always difficult. I get very little sleep before having to come into work for the night. I do the best I can to nap when the kids are napping, but things just never seems to line up … Continue reading Mixed Emotions →

Playing Doctor

When I was a kid, I remember having one of those Fisher Price Doctor kits. As a matter of fact, I think it remains a staple in every kid's toy box! I remember how cool it was that you could hear your heartbeat with the Stethoscope. Of course, you always had to give every one … Continue reading Playing Doctor →
