My Wife Just Texted… #239
They had one slot open for a trial lesson in the gymnastics class. Our 6yo was mildly interested when we explained what it was, that he could learn how to jump and flip and have fun. This was probably fairly meh for him since he could do that anytime, anywhere. I could see there […]
The Unofficial Trash Compartments of Cars
We’re teaming up with Clorox to tell some more honest stories of the misadventures of parenthood. No one ever says they want to grow up to live in a never-ending wonderland of trash and junk that would make a hoarder teary-eyed with envy. But a lot of us did say we wanted to grow […]
“Public Bathroom” : Convos With My 4-Year-Old
Some of the things we experience in public restrooms with our kids are best blacked out of our memories. Taking them to go “potty” is rough enough at home, but a trip to a public restroom is like napalm on a train wreck. This video by Matt and David (featuring Matt’s wife, Leila) hilariously demonstrates […]
Dad Jokes Hall of Shame
What people are calling “dad jokes” nowadays, I always thought of as kids’ jokes, but I guess kids grow up, reproduce and continue vigorously tossing around these goofy groaners. You know what I’m talking about… Son: Dad, I’m hungry. Dad: Hi, Hungry. I’m Dad! Sort of like the whole “dadbod” thing, where something crappy-but-lovable is […]

My Kid Just Said… #62
“I am not a LEGO builder, I am a LEGO artist.” -Lucas (2015, 6 years old) You know a 6yo kid means business when they use “I am” instead of “I’m” when they’re saying something. We were impressed. I’d just complimented him on what a good LEGO builder he was and he turned […]
My Wife Just Texted… #235
We didn’t use the garden hose with the high pressure nozel. And by that I mean, I’m not going to admit to such a thing in a public forum like this post. Kidding. Of course we didn’t fire-hose blast the fluffy, gross weirdo in the face, but man! KAK! We gave it some serious consideration. […]
Barbie Made Her Do It! (Adorable VIDEO)
After countless comics of Calvin talking and playing with his stuffed tiger, Hobbes, and after all the Toy Story movies, parents still just don’t seem to get it. TOYS ARE ALIVE! To kids, anyway.
