SNAPSHOTS
Pretty self-explanatory. These are pictures. Sometimes they’ve got words and sentences and all that jazz, but they’re mainly posts of visually-driven stuff.

We’re teaming up with Clorox to share some of the sweet and sour realities of parenthood. Imagine if someone was recommending parenthood to you, like a movie recommendation. They might say you’ll laugh, you’ll cry, you’ll lay awake sleepless at night (for years probably), you’ll be on the edge of your seat (except you […]
Kids can have some gloriously oddball thoughts. And even when they’re the completely normal variety, the way they put those thoughts into words can be pretty flippin’ amusing. Art director and father, Martin Bruckner (Spaghetti Toes) designs pop art out of the sweet or quirky quotes from his cutie pie, Harper, and other little kids. […]
As a former stay-at-home dad, I remember the long stretches of free time in between the feeding, burping, diapering, cooking, cleaning — wait a minute, I had no free time at all! But there were the naps. Baby naps are vital creative moments for a parent. They can be used for practical things like sleep […]
You know we’re all gonna be doing this for most of… for probably the entire year. Happy New Year! Whichever year it is! Wait… which one is it again?
The holidays have taken their toll on most of our waistbands, but hopefully (hopeful-ish sorta maybe?) the season of dad jokes has also thoroughly worked out our eye-twitch muscles. Think of the calories people burn when the dad jokes you tell cause cough-laughs, hours of frowning or eyerolls so violent, people break a sweat. In […]
I remember avidly reading Calvin and Hobbes through my youth. Seeing this little boy’s seasonally majestic, twisted and hilarious snow creations made me wish for something most people grow to dread where they live. Snow! It’s officially winter in L.A. And by that I basically mean I can’t comfortably wear shorts anymore and my nipples […]
When we found out the truth about Santa as kids, we could never have imagined how much work it would be to become jolly ol’ St. Nick once we had kids of our own. Christmas changes for parents. It becomes about other people, little ones and loved ones. For ourselves, we come to happily settle […]
A lot of you seemed to love/hate my first post of the Dad Jokes Hall of Shame, and since ’tis the season for family getting together and experiencing tons of second-hand embarrassment from cringe-worthy dad jokes, I figured I’d give it another shot. Don’t worry. No needles for this second dose! Har har har. I’ll […]
It’s hard not to try to pass on the things we loved as a kid to our own kids. Star Wars has become such a cultural phenomenon that it’s really our duty as parents, if you look at it, to teach them the ways of the Force, well… at lease teach them about the movies […]
What people are calling “dad jokes” nowadays, I always thought of as kids’ jokes, but I guess kids grow up, reproduce and continue vigorously tossing around these goofy groaners. You know what I’m talking about… Son: Dad, I’m hungry. Dad: Hi, Hungry. I’m Dad! Sort of like the whole “dadbod” thing, where something crappy-but-lovable is […]
