Baby Wearing For Dads

Baby wearing... What an odd term. Like a shirt you put on for the day, I wear my babies. On my hip, on My back or on my front. It keeps me close to them when I am doing my busy dad things. You know... Laundry, dishes, vacuuming. Those manly things.

Unfortunately their are not many companies that make carriers specifically for men. They are built for a women's body. I am over six feet tall and most of them like to rub right up on my rib cage and are too tight to comfortable wrap around my shoulders.

So where are these baby carriers that are meant for men?

Waking Up With The Kids

My wife, likes to wake me up. Here I am laying in bed when I hear her say "Let's go give Daddy kisses". Oh crap, here we go again.

The twins run giggling in to the room clambering on to the bed. I can't throw the pillow over my head fast enough. A has his finger in my nose proclaiming "Nose! Nose!" K grabbed the remote and is hitting me on the shoulder "DatDat! Aik UP!" My wife get's them off of me, but as soon as I roll over I get a heel form A in the chin and K is now poking me in the ear "Eeww" he says.

I get the picture as she sits their laughing. She wants me out of bed. "We need milk" she says. I knew there was a reason for this crude awakening. Grumbling in my head I kiss them on the forehead as I make my way off the bed and get ready for my day.

What kind of monsters am I living with!?
