In six days, my baby turns three. He is helpful and destructive, curious and stubborn, gentle and loud—sometimes all at once. This is a love letter to the chaos, the giggles, the robots, and the tiny human teaching us patience we didn’t know we needed.

Painting with a toddler sounds calm until you wash your hands and come back to paint on the walls, snacks stuffed inside toy cars, and an umbrella sword fight already in progress. Just another perfectly normal day over here.

How do you start over after the holidays? Easy. Dad goes back to work, the baby ignores your plans, the toddler boycotts naps, the dog supervises everything, and mom tries to remember what “routine” used to mean.

Getting a toddler to clean up toys starts with good intentions… and ends with a brand-new adventure. What begins as tidying quickly turns into rediscovering forgotten toys, launching rescue missions, and restarting playtime — all while the floor somehow gets messier than before.

I serve three balanced meals a day, and my toddler survives entirely on berries, bacon, and audacity. Eating has become a mobile sport, and I am the unpaid staff member tasked with sneaking bites into a mouth that closes faster than a bank vault.

Do we go outside in terrible weather, or stay inside while the toddler slowly dismantles the house? Either way, someone’s crying — and it’s probably not the kid. A painfully honest look at parenting, bad weather, and choosing the chaos you can survive.

Decorating for Christmas with a toddler means missing ornaments, stolen tinsel, and a tiny thief who loves shiny things.

Being a dad means being responsible — until you decide to crawl on the floor pretending the couch is a monster.
When dads step into their kids’ worlds, logic disappears and imagination takes over. Sure, your knees hurt and you’ll probably step on a Lego, but your kid doesn’t care. They just see you showing up, roaring like a dinosaur, and playing along.

Somewhere between the silly voices and the sore back, you realize you didn’t lose your imagination — you just need to stretch first.

Debating a toddler to get dressed in the winter. Winter mornings with a toddler means mismatched mittens, rejected coats, and cold hands five seconds later. A humorous, honest take on the chaos of getting little kids dressed for cold weather.
