Is Your Blog Getting the Attention it Deserves?
FIND & BE FOUND: Hundreds of other excellent blogs for you to follow. AND a great way for this growing community of bloggers to discover YOUR blog or website!
Getting Your Toddler To Bed Without A Fight
I need your advice! My 2½ year old girl is clearly smarter than me, and has taken to negotiating (or screaming if that doesn’t work) her way out of bedtime. HELP!
My Name is Daddy
I read someplace recently that the phenomenon that is the “mommy blog” has not taken off in the same way for “daddy bloggers” because men would not use such a demeaning way of labeling their work. Apparently there are those who believe that “mommy” and “daddy” are somehow inferior, less respectful, less respectable ways of being addressed. I don’t agree.
A Parenting Lesson from Doctor Who
I’ve learned a lot from Doctor Who about being a father, not the least of which is how to say, “No.” Watch this video clip in that context… it’s hilarious!
Have You Become Your Parents?
I wondered if I’d do or say some of the same things as my parents. For those of you who have kids, have you become your parents? And what $#*! did your dad say?
A Pod Snatched Daddy
Prior to having a child I’d heard rumors of parents who’d alienated their friends with excessive descriptions of their child’s toilet habits. Now, it seems, I am one of those parents. It sneaks up on you slowly, and it is our self-respect not our emotions the pods steal.
Give the Gift of Memories – Shutterfly Can Help!
I rarely do product reviews as I’m usually to darned honest and ornery for most reviewee’s liking. But one company I’m happy to review is Shutterfly.com. Originally I used them to print Christmas photo cards and with truly excellent results. I must say, though, the coolest thing we’ve done via Shutterfly is putting together custom photo books (not photo albums, mind you, but actually hard bound books) of photos…
Naughty or Nice? A Christmas Giveaway
What are your favorite memories of Christmas? Do you remember the wonder and excitement you felt as a child at the thought of Santa Claus’s impending arrival each year? I do. I clearly remember lying awake in bed listening for and certain I could hear the hoofs of his reindeer on our roof on Christmas night.
