Do You Have a Favorite Kid?

In case you weren’t aware, I have three children. Being the seasoned veteran that I am, I recently had someone pick my brain a bit about having kids. Did you always wants to have kids? How did you decide? Is it expensive? How do you balance everything? OK take it easy there pal. This is […]

Grading the Baby After One Month

I’ve been a father of three for about a month now. There were a lot of unknowns going into number three: What’s life going to be like with a third kid? Do I remember anything about babies? What vehicle are we going to buy? Daycare. When can I start buying hockey equipment? You know, the […]

I Would Do Anything for Love

Including using this thing. Have you ever wanted a device to suck the snot out of someone’s nose? Then boy do I have the product for you. I know what you’re thinking, there must be more to this thing. There is not. You stick one end in the baby’s nose. You stick the other end […]

Overrated Things About Being a Dad

And I choose […]

Shredder’s Revenge and the Return of the Turtles

I’ve pontificated once or twice about my gaming prowess in the past, but these days my gaming is pretty much limited to 2048 on my phone. I have had very little desire to buy up the latest consoles over the years; I have no need for them and I care very little about my children’s […]

I’m a father with three kids

LeBron James said that one time. Actually it was twice. He also said he prefers that people don’t use disrespectful words towards him due to that fact. We have these things in common. Here’s a comprehensive list of things LeBron James and I have in common: three kids two sons and one daughter shouldn’t be […]
