I just want to sleep in
During the week I ma the first one up in the house. I go around and wake everyone else up so that they can go and start to get ready for the day. My wife is normally the hardest of the family members to get going. My not yet a year old is the easiest. So then we get to the weekends. My chance to get...

Winnie the Pooh is a poor role model
I really, really can not stand Winnie the Pooh. None of it is educational or even close to be entertaining. It is just stupid. But it is cute, so kids like it and misguide women like it. But it is just stupid. I could point out all the sexual issues that should be obvious to everyone, but I won't....

A sick nine month old

Television
I have often seen people go off on how bad television is. I so far have not really had a problem with it with my kids. My four year old does watch it and hates to be taken away from it at times, but I am not worried. The trick is to make sure that the child gets out and does fun activities or that...

Kids make gift giving so much easier
This is mostly true when it comes to the grandparents. That is one thing we have noticed the last few years. All you have to do is take a few pictures or get some taken of the kids or family. This year we had some day care pictures of the boys and then some really fun pictures of them dressed as...
