My wife and I have been having our kids born at home and each time it is quite an adventure. This story I wrote covers the labor and birth briefly in chronological order. Here is a little teaser of what 6:25am was like Super Bowl Sunday:

6:25am: Wife calls from bathroom and I come running.

6:26am: Wife: “Are the midwives here yet?”
Me: “No, it has only been 15 or 20 minutes…. (pause) WHY?”
Wife: “They better hurry up cause I feel like I need to push.”
Me: (Silently in my head) “Holy $@*&”
Me: “Really?”
Wife: “Yeah I think so. Is the bed ready?”
Me: “YEP!”

So go to Dad Bloggers and read my entire article.

A Chronological Account of What Happened Super Bowl Sunday

Yesterday marked the one year anniversary to Dad Bloggers. There have been a group of dad bloggers who contribute regularly and there are some real good quality articles written.

Personally I have contributed a few articles and plan to continue to do so.

I have written 5 articles for them over the last year. I will list them if you are interested in going over and reading them.

Actions Speak Louder Than Words
This article stresses the importance of how parents need to practice what they preach. Show your kids how to act by being a good example.

Bath Time
This was more a fun article about packing 4 kids into the tub.

Enjoy Your Next Family Trip
I remember this trip very well. I wrote about a car trip that the family took in our minivan. Though family trips can be lots of fun, there are certain things we need to be prepared for. Hope for the best and expect the worst.

Welcome to the Future
This article is a more serious one that touches on the stereotypes of stay at home dads and what we face living in the world today. It is more of a contreversial piece but what is written actually is in most of every stay at home dad.

Putting in an Order for a Boy
I wrote this one not too long ago. We are expecting our 5th child in January and with 1 boy and 3 girls we have gotten several orders put in for this next baby to be a boy. So I wrote about it and touched on family dynamics.
