One Of The Hardest Things About Being A Dad In 2019
Hey there Incredidads. Maybe you haven’t noticed but I haven’t flipped on the IncrediSignal in a few weeks. I hope you haven’t noticed because that means, like me, you are trying to vanquish one of the vilest super-villains an IncrediDad can face; putting down the phone. In the Disney/Pixar film “The Incredibles”, the heroes face…
Bed Time
Although it happens around the same time every night, Boy Wonder acts like I’m sentencing him to hard time behind bars. So the defendant naturally tries to present his case the best that he can, even if that results in a bit of con-artistry. Kids are a lot smarter than we give them credit for….
T.V. Dads
Can we all agree that t.v. dads are terrible fathers? These guys gave me the wrong idea about fatherhood from the very beginning. I had visions, trapped in the golden age of sitcoms, wrapped in a cardigan sweater, and aged in the homey aroma of pipe tobacco, that played out with me resembling a frighteningly…
Picture Day
Day care sent home a letter that Picture day is next week. Now maybe it’s because we have cameras on our phones these days but I started asking myself, do I really need that? Don’t I have three hundred pictures of Boy Wonder in the same pose already? “Oh look! There’s another one of him…

Product Review – O’Neill Baby Life Jacket
O’Neill Wake Waterski Infant USCG Vest I don’t do product reviews often and **disclaimer** this is an unpaid endorsement. That being said, this life jacket is amazing and I’ll tell you why. Boy Wonder hated the pool when we went on vacation this past February. I’m talking crocodile tears, shaking, and all. He put up…
Don’t Lie Or I’ll Tell Santa
Every parent lies to their kid and that is a fact. But I like to think of it as acting. In my humble opinion, if any casting agent witnessed the performances I’ve turned in to my kid, they’d have me on Broadway, Motion Pictures, maybe even Netflix! When I read “Car, Car, Truck, Jeep” for…
Table Manners, Toddlers, and A Tale Of Two Cities
An old childhood trauma resurfaced when I read an article in The Sunday Times today. The author, India Knight, talked about Etiquette vs. Manners. I’ve always found etiquette intimidating; a feeling that has recently returned since the birth of my son. Anyone with a toddler who can spin in circles faster the Tasmanian devil would…
Oprah’s Got Nothing On Me
I feel a lot like Oprah this week. And the movers get a thousand dollars! The auto-hauler gets a thousand dollars! Whoops there goes another thousand just for funsies! As I spend my meager fortune far faster than I ever made it, I’m starting to wonder why we have so much crap. When I moved…
Translating For Boy Wonder
Boy Wonder’s vocabulary is expanding every day. It seems like just yesterday he said his first words, Da-da. Of course he did say that yesterday and this morning too. Basically whenever he wants something I get summoned with a hearty “Da-da!”. These days he says plenty of words clearly “Car!”, “Trucko!”, “Ice Cream Man!”, and…
Updated Resume and CV
Dear Selection Committee Of My Future Career, Being an IncrediDad is by far the most rewarding career I’ve ever had but even Bruce Wayne needed a day job. The last time I had to update my resume and cover letter, Barrack Obama was still serving his first term as President of the United States, The…
