    We all have those inanimate objects that hold special places in our hearts – stuffed animals, jewelry, artwork, souvenirs, and even furniture. I mean, Mrs. FWL and I are getting a new couch and getting rid of some of the first pieces of furniture that we bought together eight years ago when we graduated from Ikea.…

    Isabel has recently found a new “decibel” in her voice, and Mrs. FWL and I are already envisioning her as a toddler, publicly voicing her displeasure with something, or just freaking out because she has a hair on her nose. Now imagine you’re with an “unhappy” toddler…in public…in a confined space…like an elevator!

    I’m a big dude. Not WWE wrestler big, just tall. I know Isabel doesn’t appreciate the unique perspective she has whenever I hold her or we play circus, or how huge I must look when she looks up from the floor, but she should feel lucky. What other kid gets to scrape the ceiling or see…

    I have never been one to put much stock in dreams. Some are good, some are bad, some are freaking weird. As a kid, I remember one reoccurring dream and it always happened after we returned home from traveling. The specifics are irrelevant, but it always involved me in some world with HUGE pieces of…

    Baking time on Convos With My 2-Year-Old! I’m very fortunate to be married to a women who loves being in the kitchen cooking and baking (well, maybe not the “being in the kitchen” part), and she’s fantastic at it! Name something and she can make it (or she’ll jump on Pinterest and find a killer recipe).…
