About Us
We’re just the normal average family… but the traditional roles have been flipped. My wife is amazing, the best person I have ever met, and has a great job that she loves. As of now, we have a little girl born in April of 2008, and boy on the way… due in January 2010. I am a full time Stay At Home Dad. I cook, I clean, I shop, I’m a taxi, I do housework. The only thing I don’t do… is bring home any dough.
It’s really a strange life, being a stay at home dad, but I would have to say that I am one of the luckiest guys in the world. Being able to stay at home with the kids, and support and take care of the family like this is something that most men will never be able to experience. Staying at home is no easy job. I would really have to say that it is the most demanding job that anyone could ever have. There is no time off, no slacking, no calling in sick, no being late, not even any breaks.
But, if we are lucky, we might get a few hours during the day, while the kid is napping, to breath.
I do love writing and discussing all this family and parenting stuff, so if you have a site/blog that you want me to review let me know. Also if you have a exciting product or service that needs a a review, I can do that too. I am always looking for some cool stuff to put on the blog
-Thanks

Hi Josh,
Just read the article about you on the Seattle Times site, and I think you’re doing an amazing job. I hope the Times piece helps put you in touch with other stay-at-home dads so you won’t feel so isolated. I never had kids (parenting = too much work!), so I really admire anyone who dedicates his or her life to ensuring the success of the next generation. With you as a dad, your kids are off to a great start in life. Best wishes to your family on Father’s Day!
