Going out to eat can sometimes be a three-ring circus with a nearly one year old in tow. We especially learned that this last weekend when we tried to do dinner at a restaurant we had gone to a few times in the past with the little one. While he has often been great whileContinue reading “No use crying over spilled…juice?”

Ales of the Revolution
Some may choose to celebrate the Fourth of July with hot dogs and hamburgers, but as I write this, I have just sampled a taste of the American Revolution. For quite a few years, I had been on the hunt for a beer called “Ales of the Revolution” from Yards Brewing Company in Pennsylvania. IContinue reading “Ales of the Revolution”
First Father’s Day
It’s been a pretty cool first Father’s Day weekend. Yesterday, Meg and I took the little guy to a public market (sort of like a farmer’s market, but with additional things like crafts and other vendors alongside the farm stands). and since it’s held outside in the courtyard of a train station, we got toContinue reading “First Father’s Day”
Fall into Spring
The weather has been changing lately. The temperatures rising, the grass becoming a little greener, a little longer, and the air filled with the smells of pollen and barbecues. There’s no doubt that spring is here, but in case we take it for granted, mother nature gave us a nice little reminder of why it’sContinue reading “Fall into Spring”
Social Fridays
Ever since we’ve become parents, it has become, as expected, a lot more difficult to get together with friends and family, especially in the frequency that we used to.

Druckerman covers a wide variety ofContinue reading “Bringing up Bébé”
The ‘Singular Sensation’ that can be a date night
You can take a lot for granted before you have a kid. Before our son was born, I never thought of how easily we would come and go from the house, run an errand here and there, pick up some groceries, or grab a bite to eat, without giving it a second thought. Now, goingContinue reading “The ‘Singular Sensation’ that can be a date night”
Change to the menu
Leaps and bounds, right into the mouth. In the past week, our little guy has added solid foods to his menu. I say solid as in mushy, but heck, it’s certainly something a little more diverse than just milk, I’m sure. Eventually we would like to begin making his food on our own. It’s amazingContinue reading “Change to the menu”
