Working as a waiter in a restaurant is one of those life skills that you don’t realize is a life skill when you’re doing it. Similar to some people I worked as a waiter when I was between jobs or attending school. I didn’t realize it at the time, but those skills that I learned during those many restaurants have improved who I’ve become as a parent.

It’s a weekend like this that Dad is glad that most of the weeds in the yard were dealt with in April. Continue reading Daddy Mojo’s Weed Challenge-The Results
In a stereotypical situation the mom takes care of the kids, goes shopping, does some errands and cooks. In those situations the ideal gift for Mother’s Day is a day at the spa or time away from the family. This would leave the father in charge of the family where it’s presumed that the house would implode, the hot water heater would burst; no diapers would be changed and if they were it would result in the babies poop ending up on dad’s face.

My wife and I love our house, for us it is perfect. When we have to move it’ll be because we’re old, gray and can’t make it up the stairs anymore. If we have to move before then and don’t like the people who’ll be purchasing the house, then this dad will spend hours putting up wall paper. Ugly, thick wall paper that will be immediately dated to an era when boy bands ruled and Good Vibrations wasn’t considered a cheesy song. Continue reading DIY a Stay at home Dad can do: Wall paper removal
Mom had a business trip to visit one of her clients. While dad certainly misses his bride for the night, he would also welcome some time in the man cave. This trip had been announced for a couple weeks and not so secretly, dad had been making a man cave short list of movies to watch. Mom tried to help by saying that dad could watch two movies in one night. However, in reality, the short list was actually a real list of short actors in movies he’d wanted to see. Continue reading Dad spends a night in the man cave: The Revenge
As a dad and comic book guy I’m psyched to see Green Lantern in theaters. When I was a kid the thing that hooked me to Green Lantern was the fact that, despite being a super hero, he was only as super as his imagination. If GL can physically handle it and can think about it, the ring can create it, as long as he’s not defending something yellow.
Would the Green Lantern toys measure up to entertain today’s kids? We received the Green Lantern Colossal Cannon and an Abin Sur action figure and put it up against the standards of a pack of young boys. Continue reading Daddy Mojo reviews: Green Lantern toys
Our iPad is a great piece of machinery. As Toddler Mojo gets older we’re learning more and more that it can be an invaluable tool in educating him and keeping dad sane. The iPad sure isn’t a toy. However, all of those stories you hear about children loving the iPad are true and sometimes those quiet moments your child has with it are priceless.
Here are three great apps that can really help out mom and dad when yon toddler needs a distraction. Continue reading April iPad apps that will entertain toddlers
Guys, dads, men: have you ever gotten the wrong kind of milk? Your other half needs skim milk that usually has the red top, unless you go to a different store, which will have another color. Sometimes you’ll reach in the area where the red topped skim milk should be, but somebody else had put a pink topped no fat milk there instead.
Either of these situations can happen and it’s not your fault, you just weren’t paying attention. How does this milk parable parlay into a DIY project that is very basic? Continue reading DIY a Stay at Home Dad can do-repairing wall dings
