Family is not an important thing. It’s everything. Michael J. Fox
Amber wants this to be a family blog, not just another mom blog. So this is my first Dad Blog contribution. I guess it should be more of a dad blogger introduction post.
Random Facts about me, the new dad blogger
- Father to 3 amazing kids.
- I met the love of my life by offering her a slice of pizza in the Caribbean.

- Classically trained cartographer but I also love Satellites and GIS work.
- I mapped a cave for the Sheik of Dubai.
- Favorite Movie is Wyatt Earp.

My goal dad blogging topics are

- Environmental Issues
- Video Games
- DIY Projects, I can fix anything.
- Raising Future Major League Baseball Stars.
- Music and Jazz Hands.
- Frugal tips maybe? Tip number 1, take away Amber’s credit cards. (not really, she makes her own money)
- Friends, making adult friends is a complicated issue.
- I’m considering podcasting / vlogging.
My parenting goals

- Getting the boys to poop in the toilet.
- We are really winging the rest of it.
Amber likes to travel, I just carry the bags and hold on for the ride. I took off Wednesday to go with her to get the boy’s passports done so that stops holding us back. I should go buy her flowers now because she’s a grump today.
Now I have a favor from you? Who are your favorite dad bloggers? Is there a dad blog handbook? Dad Blogging Etiquette? Where do I find the best dad bloggers?
