Support World Breastfeeding Week

July 31, 2009

August 1-7th is World Breastfeeding Week. As a breastfeeding mother I am touched by stories in the past. Breastfeeding mothers being seen as heroes. There was a story about a man who lost his wife, and 12 women showed up to feed his baby. Or after the earthquakes in China a [...]

The Sisterhood of the Traveling…

July 31, 2009

Well okay, nothing traveling yet! I wanted to point out two wonderful entries for The Sisterhood contest. Sarah’s entry and Lizzy’s.
My sisterhood is unlike anything else. From the moment I met them I knew I’d found friends. Sarah, Liz, and Casey all attended BlogHer this year. We’ve been collectively planning our trips for the [...]

The MobiCam from KidSafe

July 31, 2009

Brooklin has been given all sorts of products since being born. The one I am super excited about is the MobiCam AV Baby Monitor. I had one of those easy to use plain baby monitors but the channels kept switching out. For a brand new monitor I never could figure it out, I figured it [...]

Make This a Lesson..

July 30, 2009

Don’t ever trust anyone.
Don’t ever let your guard down.
Watch what you say.
Watch what you do.
Some humans are evil.
Words can hurt..more than violence.
People really do use their blogs just to hurt others, this is truly sad.
No one will ever knock me down, or tell me who I am.

If [...]

BlogHer 2009 ReCap Day 1

July 29, 2009

I was a little nervous about the whole BlogHer thing. Being a newbie it’s kind of expected. Coming down the escalator I spotted Lizzy. Immediately we talked and I was at ease. It was like finally meeting a long lost best friend, and in all reality that is exactly what it [...]

Seeing Is Truly Believing

July 29, 2009

We think the LED Lenser flashlight by Coast flashlight is the brightest thing since the lightbulb! Ok not that far, but we love it! I knew it was right up Ordinary Dad’s alley, being the car lover he is I knew he would be able to find so many uses for the flashlight. Also [...]

What I Did For BlogHer 09 (A Dad’s Point of View)

July 28, 2009

Kai’s airport sign for Mommy.

So what would a Dad think about taking his 5 week and 4 year old girls alone for 4 days and 3 nights without good ole mommy? At first I was very anxious, but I was determined and I knew it would not be bad. [...]

I Was Hit at BlogHer

July 28, 2009

Right now it’s being done. After me talking about being hit at BlogHer a nasty post was written about me.I simply don’t have the time or energy to divulge all the laundry.
Furthermore I am only writing about the events at BlogHer since it was 100% uncalled for. Forget what happened at Nikon when my [...]

Attention!

July 28, 2009

I’m just letting everyone know. I am not going to feed into the Tanya drama. Plain and simple she has gone to far. I should have called the police like security told me to.
Del wrote a post as me to try and help explain my side, obviously it was taken the wrong way. So [...]
