SNAPSHOTS
Pretty self explanatory, no? These are pictures. If you want us to draw you something explaining what this means, go ahead and write us an email.
Bathroom Privacy… BWAHAHAHAHA!!!
Parenting has been compared to every conceivable activity and career. Anything one could dream up. You’re a prisoner. You’re law enforcement. You’re a slave. You’re a cook. You’re a doctor. You’re a teacher. But have you ever considered that perhaps the most apt description could be that of a space explorer on the vessel that [...]

Darth Vader Santa Says…
Sometimes getting into the holiday spirit can be as tough squeezing into a pair of 10-year-old jeans. Though, by saying that, I’m not suggesting that a generous amount of Vaseline and a heavy-duty pair of pliers applied to your zipper area is going to help get you into “the most wonderful time of the year.” [...]

Kid Versions of the Hulk, Wolverine, Ted Williams & The Naked Brothers Band
I make birthday cards for my sons. These are Cody’s and Max’s cards for 2008 (8yo and 6yo) and 2009 (9yo and 7yo). For 2008, the fact that my boys were into comic book characters rocked my world, even if it was by way of movies instead of the glossy pages of actual comic books. [...]

Don’t Bring Dirty Looks to a Machete Fight
How many looks of disgust or ohmahgosh rolls of the eyes do you think this mom gets breastfeeding in public? Bingo! Not many. At least not from people with a full set of arms in their collection. You could argue that it’s because she’s a part of a primitive society and that they’re all simply [...]

Last night, as the commotion was coming to an end, and my son was verging on total insanity from staying up too late, his 3-year-old mind decided to articulate a point I think bears repeating… Good luck stopping Finn from having fun. Imagine living life like that? So, let’s take this message and carry it [...]

Charlie & Andy Become Chandy & Arlie
We use up all of our creative juices on our website, so the best we could come up with was to go as each other for Halloween this year. Maybe this is like some kind of weird version of a kid “becoming their parents,” except we’re becoming our parenting website partner. Or something. That seems [...]

Thank you public toilet designer…
Dear public toilet designer, Thank you for developing a toilet that, when flushed, instantly sounds like a jet breaking the sound barrier. Thank you for adding a year to potty training. Thank you for scaring a year off my kid’s life. Thank you for teaching my kid that all of my reassurances that “it’s safe” [...]

Whorlloween Costume Epic Battles
Some people love ‘em. Some people hate ‘em. I’m talking about all the hyper sexy costumes at seasonal Halloween pop-up stores and costume shops. Remember when it was witches and fairies and princesses? One thing’s for sure, we’re not in Kansas anymore, Toto. So, I’ve decided to put together a showdown! Vote for the sexiest, [...]

Homemade Birthday Cards 2005: Dash from The Incredibles and Metroid’s Samus
Max’s 5th custom Birthday card: Dash from the Pixar film, The Incredibles. When I first presented this card to Max on his 5th Birthday, it was the first bad reaction from the boys about any of their cards. He was obviously weirded out by it but tried to put on a twitchy artificial smile; he [...]
