The Skunk smells wonderful and entertains all ages effortlessly

Patrick McDonnell is one of our favorite authors. He’s the guy behind Mutts, a comic strip (and countless books) that show the love, adventures and life of various domestic animals and the people that live with them. Mac Barnett is the author of one of our favorite books in recent memory, Battle Bunny. He also co-authored The Terrible Two, a very funny book for young readers that was recently green lit to become a movie. Combine the two of them in The Skunk and you won’t be disappointed.

Preschool Gems is a great toilet book and that’s a good thing

The books that have occupied my bathroom reading have changed through the years. The constant for the past number of years has been The Far Side. During my 20’s The Duct Tape book was there; along with some men’s fashion magazine that I never followed the clothing or grooming advice to. My bathroom reading is still evolving now that I’m married and have children who are old enough to form somewhat coherent sentences.

An onion is a small thing isn’t it? At this stage of the pregnancy game your unborn child is the size of an onion. Not The Onion mind you, unless the father has a superb ability to write fake news stories. Continue reading Week 17-Mom and Dad, your baby is the size of an onion!

Dad spends a night in the man cave: The Revenge

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

A dad and mom play “did somebody step on a duck”?

As a stay at home dad I encounter lots of funny situations with my child. Toilet jokes are the low hanging fruit in the blog world. I made a pact with myself to avoid stories about the toilet, a moratorium if you will, for as long as possible. I’m sure that when Baby Mojo gets to the potty training phase of life we’ll have more stories, some of which may actually be funny.

Speaking in a very technical sense, it’s not a story of the toilet, more accurately it’s a case of “did somebody step on a duck”? Continue reading A dad and mom play “did somebody step on a duck”?
