I make three lunches in the morning. Two for my kids in school and one for my wife who teaches kindergarten. We use almond butter due to peanut allergies in schools. I pull out the almond butter, place it on the counter. After opening the lid to spread it, and realize I have no knife….
The soap, as it often does as it nears the end of its usefulness, had broken apart into two pieces. It was during bathtime and Ciárán (age 5) was getting washed. I was hoping not to lose either of the pieces, and had mashed them together to form an approximation of a singular piece of…
Took the crib apart over the weekend. That felt weird. It needed to happen, but it’s been 10 years. Xavier transitioned into a regular bed a month or so ago, and it’s been going as well as could be expected. It’s easier for him to get out of bed, but there’s less danger of him…
Here is the one picture I have for this week. It’s Ciárán and Xavier at the zoo this morning. I have a bit of stuff to say, but for the uninterested, here’s the picture. Ugh! Alright, so for Mother’s Day Laura bought a new digital camera. This was a purchase we had been mulling over…

I have six pictures and two birthdays to share this week. Tuesday was August’s actual 10th birthday. I previously posted about his party last Friday. Here he is blowing out the candles on his cake. Then he opened up the biggest present from his grandparents containing the biggest LEGO set he’s ever gotten (the…
Disney Junior has come a long way in the last couple of years, and part of that is due to some recent additions to its lineup. One of those is “Doc McStuffins” and despite the semi-Scottish last name, the leach character is an African-American girl. And dad is a stay at home dad while mom…
