Yep, it  had to be Hulk! It’s nearly Halloween, so we’ve been having a lot of discussions about costumes. As you can probably imagine, the kids change their minds a few times before they land on the ONE — that costume that will be the perfect one for that year. (I should also say that my son was Optimus Prime …

We often hear (and read) about the moms who wear their babies from birth. It’s a rewarding experience, and there are so many benefits; but up until a few years ago, we didn’t see as many dads who would wear their babies and children. It’s not that it’s never been done, and I think we can all agree that more-and-more …

I know… I know… you’re probably wondering why we’re talking about beer pong and cornhole, right? (Spoiler: You also have a chance to win $250, if you join our antics at the Twitter party tomorrow night — see more details below.) It’s because we’ve got the unique opportunity (and pleasure) to team with Lee Jeans, Mike & Mike (Mike Golic …

It's time for Back-to-School, which also coincides with a great offer for free Scholastic books, as part of the Kellogg's Family Rewards!

We’re constantly on the go, whether it’s running in the park, barreling down the slide, taking a hike in the Sandia Mountains, splashing in the pool, or hunting dinosaurs (down by the Rio Grande). That time is important to me, not just because I can see my son seems to be inching taller as we speak. Time is precious, and …

It’s one of those moments that most of us won’t ever forget: the #firstcarmoment. I worked so hard to earn enough money to buy my first car. It was a truck (actually),  and it was quite possibly the most beautiful thing I’d ever owned. At least, it sure was shiny and new when I drove it off the lot for …

I was asked to contribute to a series of readings on fathers. So, I read this adaptation. For me, it captures a little of what being a father means: to love, to be there, to wish for more time… My son: Tomorrow, you turn four years old… and I can’t believe where the time has gone. Do you remember? Can …

Fellow parents have been asking me the same question: What will I be doing for Father’s Day weekend? And, my answers have been variations on the same theme. But, it’s really simple: I’ll be spending time with my son. That’s why I was thrilled to hear about a great activity for dads and their families in locations all over the …

All opinions are mine alone. #FuelTheLove #CollectiveBias Summer is our time for lots of outdoor activities: hiking, road trips, rides to the pool and stops at the park. That takes us all over — from the Rio Grande to the Sandias, and everywhere in-between. We’re busy-active, but our …

They say that “All great things must come to an end.” But, somehow,  it never feels like that’s really the case. While we were in the midst of the T-Ball season, we’d gotten into a groove. We had practice and games every week, and every player improved. I told the parents and kids at the very beginning of the season …
