Notes from a Stay at Home Dad… tips, tricks, stories and fun
Wyatt’s One
Wyatt's one! Now that he is all grown up... its easy to see just how different boys and girls really are. All boy, this one. Wants to wrestle and play fight all the time. He loves to torture his big sister, and she likes to try to push him around... too bad he almost weighs as much as she does, and takes her down like a WWF superstar. His favorite thing to do now is play chase, and des...
Nine months and walking… again!
Again... I thought I was going to have a little more time before the little guy started walking. Nope, just like his big sis... he picked up walking early. Just over nine months... and he is staring to walk around, determined to master the two legged art of the giants. And I am sure that in a week or two, running will come, along with a whole new set of injuries and adventures. But for n...
Baby Proofing the House
It's been a few years since i last baby proofed the house, and now it seems, its time for it again. It never fails, that the one thing that your forget to make safe, is the one thing that they will hurt them self or go for, over and over again. Here is my list of necessary things to be baby proofed, again.
Covers on all the outlets - babies like to stick things there all the time, toys, f...
Nine Months
The boy is nine months old now, and I can tell... he'll be walking soon. He is learning some good tricks from his big sis, like how to climb up on things by stacking things up to get higher. Soon he will learn that the higher you get... the harder you will fall. We have had a few good falls, no blood... but still good falls. I can tell that this boy is going to be tough... little t...
Poop Galore!!!
We recently made the switch to solid foods. Well, not really solid... mush. I am really starting to miss the days of a strict boob milk diet. Not too many poops and the smell was bearable. Now, with the addition of formula and baby food, the poo flood gates have opened and I have found myself in a non stop diaper changing haze. I mean it's nuts man. It doesn't stop. Back to back to b...

Yup. Its almost time. We have the little guy due in the beginning of January, and the preparations for his arrival are in full swing. We have the his room all painted, decorated, and outfitted. I would have to say that I have not seen a cooler little boys room… ever. Being a stay at home dad, I have lots of time on my hands (when the girl is sleeping) to do these things. We decided to paint it green, I heard it was calming… and it goes with the baby bedding.
We decided to go with this whole forest owl motif. We painted some owl pictures, hung up a deer antler coat rack, and got some super duper heavy furniture. I would love for this 
to be my room… its that cool.
