If mermaids were real then my son would be Aquaman. He loves bath-time, shower-time, trips to the pool, and a day at the beach. If there’s water involved, Boy Wonder will play until his fingers are nice and pruny. Being part fish runs in the family though. IncrediMom and I are both swimmers from way…

Parents, tonight when the ball drops and everyone is trying to sing the song they can’t remember the words to, replace those “Auld lang syne” lyrics with “days gone by”. You’ll be able to sing along with confidence knowing the song’s true meaning. And know that, when you refill your glass, you’re celebrating not the days…

A cage match of our favorite caffeinated beverages!

Batman has his cowl. Superman wears his tights. James Bond slips into a tuxedo like it’s his second skin. Indiana Jones never loses his hat. The Incredidad wears a tee-shirt and shorts. All of these men have three things in common: They’ve all saved the world from time to time. They have their own version…

This is your captain speaking. We’re cruising at 30,000 feet with blue skies ahead…Hold on…I’ve just received word that someone has brought a baby on board. Folks buckles in and stay seated. You’re in for a rocky flight. After watching the other passengers avoid us like we were diseased, the flight attendants glare at us…

If you’re like us, then the Trump Administration’s opposition to breastfeeding stunned you as much as it did the United Nations-affiliated World Health Assembly. So Bex decided to write a Guest Post about her own experiences with breastfeeding. As always, please join us in the conversation by adding to the comments below.  ~The IncrediDad  …

Up until a few months ago, I had never eaten an avocado in my life. I’ve been told that’s a sin in Southern California. So after seven years of living out here I finally broke down and tried one. It was among the tastiest fruits I’ve ever had. Avocado is light, versatile, and you don’t…

While the greatest heroes seem to stand tall on their own, there is usually a pretty strong father figure who helped pull them to their feet in the first place. We can learn a lot from dad figures like Alfred Pennyworth, Jor-El, Uncle Ben, Joe West, Thomas Wayne. The thought came to me as I’ve been…

Now that we are half-a-year into this adventure, I think I’m finally ready to admit something. Time always seems to be the one thing I can’t get enough of. Coincidentally, it’s also something that won’t go by fast enough. From the beginning, time was the IncrediDad’s arch enemy. It didn’t seem like there was enough…

Just when you thought it was safe to go back in the nursery . . . he’s back! This time with teeth. At 7 months, Boy Wonder is biting his way through everything he can (Daddy’s fingers, cheeks, and nose included) with his two razor sharp teeth. He’s also producing enough drool to fill a…

Like the Joker said, “Hubba, hubba, hubba. Money, money, money. Who do ya trust?” No really, he said it. Batman 1989. Go cue up your old VHS tape if you don’t believe me. Jack Nicholson may have just been vamping before his showdown with Batman but I took it as one of those “life” questions….

I’m talking about the bathroom. We’ve all been there. But have we all been there with a freshly crawling baby? It’s a super-heroic feat in itself. It was also one of those things that no one warned me about before becoming a dad. I had to learn it the hard way. So IncrediDads-to-be, this post…

Have you heard about the hottest new show in town? Forget anything on Broadway this season. If you want to see one of the most energetic performances of this year, head on over to the Bath-tub Amphitheater to see the resident artists The Royal Feathertons. One critic said that their latest performance of “Quackbeth” left the…

The other day, I had to take the IncrediMom Mobile into the shop. Now, IncrediDad thought he would be using his head by leaving before IncrediMom and Boy Wonder. Our mechanic has a nice waiting area, free coffee, and wifi. Really, there are worse places to be stranded without a car for a few minutes….

At some point, early on in this crazy adventure called Fatherhood, I realized that I put a lot of unnecessary expectations on myself. I felt like a real world superhero. I seemed invincible, unstoppable, and beacon of hope. It didn’t take much time for Boy Wonder to bring my ego down a few pegs. It…

Parenting can be a like a puzzle with one piece that is eternally missing. But every day, I add another piece that makes the task a little less daunting. Think of it like car maintenance. It’s a giant machine that should work. Should. But sometimes, it stops and you don’t know why. There are so many…

I’m no babysitter, but I almost felt like one the other night. During our work week, I’m the morning parent and Bex is the nighttime parent. That’s been part of our routine since she went back to work. So far, it’s worked out pretty good for us. Famous last words, right? On Wednesday, Bex picked…

Part 6 of my week-long Incredible Leadership series.  Click the links to read parts 1,2,3,4, and 5. In the beginning, we all wanted to save the world. That’s what superheroes do. But times change and so do the people around us. Attitudes evolve. Change is inevitable. Leaders must change to forge a better future. The world…

Part 5 of my Incredible Leadership Series. Click the links to read parts 1,2,3, and 4. A hero is only as good as his . . . integrity? You better believe it. A good leader and an Incredible Father does the right thing, even when he thinks no one is looking. Not doing so has…

I am undeniably lucky to have married a woman like Bex. She is energetic, hard-working, and takes incredible care of Luke and I. That’s because she’s an amazing wife, mother, and person. You better believe I’m sucking up here. Why? Because I love her. Without her, I’d be doing all the chores, laundry, changing diapers,…
