I’m so excited to find out that I have male readers. And not just male readers, but DADS. Woo-hoo!!
First, I met Jarrett, who blogs over at 60 Days to Heaven (I need to figure out what his blog title means), talking about love, marriage and babies. I loved this post on finding time to exercise with a newborn in the house:
Our son is just approaching six weeks old, and sometimes I look at my expanding belly and tired eyes and wonder how did I go this long without working out.
Not even once.
The plan was to do a few exercises at home; jump on the bike, do a few hundred push-ups, sit-ups, and deep bends on a daily basis. But the demands for parental attention are great and many, and I just haven’t had the time to separate for exercise.
I think at some point, I’ll have to build it in like I’ve done with sleeping, which is to say that during the three-hour period between changing, feeding, burping and settling down, I’ll have to come up with a quick workout. Maybe 100 push ups for every diaper change within an hour? Maybe 100 sit-ups for every 15 minutes of uncontrollable crying?
His writing is so honest. I love it. I love reading “daddy bloggers” thoughts because they keep it real and give us a rare insight to how dads think.
Then I met Hunter, who could feel our pain on not finding anything in magazines or books that deal with dads and their role in any real, fun, informative, entertaining way. His blog, The New F.U. (hehe) promises to be a great read. I especially liked this post on how he spent his New Year’s Eve:
So we get to the restaurant on 12/31 and it’s very festive and fun. We had been there before for drinks and were looking forward to trying it for dinner. The waiter comes to our table to take our drink order and the wife orders a ginger ale. The waiter asked, kind of sympathetically, “Oh, are you the driver tonight?” She replied, “No, I’m actually pregnant.” His response? “Oh no, that sucks!” Fantastic!
Please go check them out – Dads need love too!
