I’m on a mission to get more fit this summer, and it’s not always easy with our busy schedule. Just today, we packed in a tour to the Fire Station, a fun-filled time swimming at the local pool,  a hair cut, and a hair-raising battle between the Ultimate Spidermen (pitted against the forces of evil) — all mishmashed between my …

As I watch the boys grow, milk has always been a constant. It’s there for them everyday (in so many ways: for so many of our most cherished memories), and it makes me think back to when I was a kid. Like most of you, milk was the old standby — breakfast, school lunch and snacks. But, now, milk is …

Into every dad’s day, at least a little chaos must reign. Some days seem particularly insane, with a mishmash of playdates, storytime, school (drop-off and pick-up), meals, and then all the after-school activities. Even if we were running on  full night’s sleep, the haphazard schedule would be demanding; but now we’re also in the cold-flu-allergy season, so there’s also the coughing-sneezing-stuffed-up sleeplessness …

Ok, so, they DO eat something, but it’s not usually the meal that we plan for them. Yes,  he’ll eat a bowl-full of carrots, or  whole cantaloupe in one  sitting. He loves bacon, and adores mac-and-cheese (as long as it’s the “right” kind). Together, the boys devour bell peppers and salads. You’d think they were rabbits… Sometimes, it seems as …

I was asked by a good friend to write a post about what being a 24/7 dad means to me. Well, to me, it means pure joy. Don’t get me wrong… My son can be trying at times, but it is all part of the total package. If all I had were days when he listened, when I didn’t have …

We had the opportunity of taking the Mitsubishi Outlander for a test drive over the last week. It was a fun ride, but also comfortable… Initial Impressions My son immediately called the Mitsubishi Outlander: “Happy.”  It was comfortable for him, as he sat in the back with his brother… but he also enjoyed the great surround view of the scenery …

We had the pleasure of experiencing the Mazda 3 Grand Touring car this week — it was great. It was more than just a test-drive. It was one of those experiences that was really unforgettable. The First Day My son immediately decided that the car was named “S”…  He said it like “SSSSSS,” but — from the first moment he …

“I believe that if you don’t derive a deep sense of purpose from what you do, if you don’t come radiantly alive several times a day, if you don’t feel deeply grateful at the tremendous good fortune that has been bestowed on you, then you are wasting your life. And life is too short to waste.” – Srikumar Rao My son: …

I first connected with Dove Men’s Care at Dad 2.0 last year. I really like their products, and it’s been great to be connected with them. But the Super Bowl commercial this year is one of those A-HA moments. Beyond the obvious (that it puts dads and their relationship with their kids front-and-center), it’s got some great scenes. Yes, it’s …
