Planning our Frito-Lay and Skylanders party while saving money-giveaway too #ad

Two things: it’s good to have fun and it’s good to save money. Skylanders is also good. Skylanders SWAP Force is also good fun.

Here is the #PowerofDad that I’m teaching our kids

It’s great fun being a dad. Like it or not those little people, display characteristics that are just like us. Sometimes in my head I run the highly unproductive argument of questioning if I’m over compensating for my personal flaws in the way that I parent.

Recap: I’m a stay at home dad. I get the blessing of being around our two children all day long. It is the #WorldsToughestJob. Some would view this as an albatross and others as a complete blessing. And to be honest it all depends on what time of day as to how I would answer that question. However, once the dust settles my answer will always be that it’s an honor and privilege to be a father.

Here’s why I cut off the crust to our son’s sandwich

Prior to being a parent it was easy for me to judge. Sheesh those kids are loud-Why is that person bringing a stroller in here-really, a child at a beer festival?
