On Tuesday, the three of us went to the San Antonio Stock Show and Rodeo. We had to change his normal weekday morning routine. Instead of playing with mom in his bedroom; basically he unplugs everything and opens and shuts the closet door a thousand times, I got him dressed and we headed out on…

Well, today I was planning on publishing a book I wrote, but I am still working on the Amazon.com description and I also decided to nap this afternoon instead of working. So, I am now planning either this Thursday or next Sunday; hopefully!

Last weekend, Nina’s back was hurty again; it happens a few times a year, and I had a cold; I felt it coming Friday evening.  Poor Niko also had what I had!  As of this posting, everybody is almost healthy. So, basically, on  Saturday, while Nina worked and sat in an uncomfortable chair, I bundled…

Since today is the Superbowl; I don’t care about it, nobody will read this so, I can write whatever I want!  I was going to publish and promote a book I have written today, but I will do it next Sunday.  I didn’t just write it today, I have been working on it for a…

Even though we don’t let Niko use our phones to play games or watch videos; which I personally think is wrong for children, we do let him see videos or pictures of himself.  He enjoys pushing buttons!  Hey, he is a 20 month old baby; 21 month old tomorrow, and pushing buttons where something happens…

So far, I am doing really good at publishing two new daddy blogs per week; Thursdays and Sundays.  My writing comes in very short spurts; usually about 5 or 10 minutes in the evening when Niko is sleeping and Nina is relaxing.  I wish I could get more, but I choose to play with Niko…

Now that our house is officially listed for sale; please buy it, we have to clean ours when somebody requests a showings.  Nina and I are professional’s as we had about 100 showings for our old house before it sold.  So, we know what needs to be done! When we came home last Saturday from…

Even though Niko doesn’t know the legal difference between yes and no, it’s really fun for me to carry a conversation with him; mostly I just ask him questions.  Sometimes when he is upset and crying or screaming and I ask the proper questions, he stops to think about his answer because he knows what…

On the weekdays; Monday thru Friday, I only see Niko for about 2 hours when I come home from work.  I feed him dinner, play with him for a few minutes, get him ready for his nighttime bath, and get him in the crib for nighttime.  No complaints from me as I love it. On…

My answer to a lot of things in life right now are I DON’T CARE.  And, just by saying it, it always make me feel better about myself.  The only things I care deeply about are my family; especially my wife and son.  I hate leaving them in the morning and am thrilled when I…

Tomorrow, our house will officially be listed for sale.  We need more room; both for us, Niko, and Franklin. I am very relieved that we got it ready.  It looks great and a lot better than ones we have seen both online and live. It was a lot of work and for the majority of…

How do you punish a 20-month old? The simple and quick 2-word answer is YOU DON’T. Basically, right now my primary job; well, besides being a dad and doing daddy things, is to make sure Niko doesn’t hurt himself.  Sounds easy, but in reality, it’s hard because he is a 20-month old baby and he…

A few minutes before midnight on New Years Eve, I woke up; thanks to our neighbors who were doing fireworks.  When I saw that Nina was also awake, she told me it was about 5 minutes before 2018.  So, I looked at the baby camera and Niko was laying down but his eyes were open….

I’m not going to highlight my highlights; whether it be in words or pictures, for 2017. Why? Because everybody else is doing that.  And, I don’t want to be like everybody else.  That’s what separates me from them. All I will say is that the last weekend of November till now has been busy and…

Actually, I should rename this to I NEED TO CLONE MY WIFE – PART 1! So, let’ see how many Nina clones I need: Sleeping Nina Showering Nina Breastfeeding Nina Cooking Nina Working Nina Relaxing Nina Playing Nina Driving Nina Napping Nina Marking Nina Ten clones for one Mark, Niko, and Franklin. I better stop…

A few weeks ago at work, one of my co-workers asked me why I am unable to watch TV or binge watch Netflix shows?  The simple and easy answer is, my attention span for that is about 15 minutes and it’s usually while I am eating dinner with my laptop on my lap; and I…

So, how was my vacation?  Well, under normal circumstances; meaning without a baby, our cruise was awesome and I ate a lot of stuff!  But, that didn’t happen this vacation.  We did look at cruises, but we don’t have any extra money sitting around. Ok, it was very nice to be home with my wife…

I am 40 years and my boss is 18 months old.  Yes, I take orders from Niko and most of the time, I have to oblige otherwise, I get a screaming angry baby. If he wants me to do something, 99.9% of the time, I will do it; even it makes me look weird! And, unlike…

In addition to being a daddy blogger, I am also a professional writer and photographer for high school football games; www.thestatmanspeaks.com. One of the teams I covered all last year and one game this season is the St. Anthony Yellow Jackets, a private Catholic school. Here is an excerpt from that article: When I first…

This month, I am taking a lot of time off from work and I am very much looking forward to it. I am off today, 11/17, 11/23-11/24, and 11/27-12/1.  No cruise is planned yet!  We did look but we don’t have any extra money and that is OK with me.  We will be doing lots…
