Diaper Allergies

  Despite my best attempts ... I am yet to convince Wife that I have an allergy to diapers. Where allergies and diapers do in fact overlap, though, is when it comes to changing the SUPER stinky ones.  Yup, quality wise we're talking poop the consistency of oatmeal amply laced with honey.  It's the kind that wafts while the diaper is still firmly secured.  Quantity wise we're talking about when you can see the creep towards the legs of the diaper or up the back.  This is when allergies Read more [...]

Man++ | New Grill

  Stamp my "Man Card" ... I now know how to cook on a charcoal grill!

Afghanistan Memory Memorial and Air Force Band

Weeknights are generally fairly consistent around our house.  Home from work -> play with the kid -> dinner -> bath -> bed.  We had a nice change of pace yesterday, though.
