Because he heard the drinks were on the house!

Been working with him on this for months. This morning he just did it without asking for help and I literally teared up a little. My wife caught it on video. These little wins hit different when you're a dad man.

I know I'm late to the game but finally managed to take down Malenia. Spent probably 200+ attempts over the last few months. Stayed up way too late last night and got her down to like 10% health and just went for it. Might sound dumb but honestly felt as good as winning anything in real life. Now I'...

Took him out this morning and after about 20 minutes of me holding the seat he just took off. I let go without telling him and he made it like 50 feet before he noticed I wasn't holding him anymore. The look on his face was priceless. Wife got it on video. Best morning I've had in months honestly.

Been using the same basic propane grill for like 8 years and its starting to rust pretty bad. Looking to spend maybe 400-500 bucks. I like burgers, steaks, ribs. Don't need anything crazy but I want something that will last. Anyone got recommendations? I see a lot of people talking about Traeger now...

So I'm 2 weeks back from 8 weeks paternity leave and I'm dying. My company is "flexible" with remote work but that means I'm expected to be on camera all day and still handle bedtimes and diaper changes. Yesterday I had a VP meeting right at 5pm and my son decided that was the perfect time to have a...

Woke up at 5 AM with my two oldest and hit the lake before sunrise. My 8 year old caught his first fish bigger than 2 inches and lost his mind. My 6 year old spent half the time picking up rocks but who cares, he was outside with his brothers. Didn't catch much myself but that wasn't the point. Thes...

Just fired up the smoker for the first time this year and guys it felt like meeting an old friend. Been planning a brisket for Memorial Day and I'm already thinking about rubs and timing. There's something about smoking meat all day that just resets my brain. The kids are already asking when we can ...

Got a call from the school today about an incident at recess. Some kid was pushing his smaller friend around, and my 9 year old stepped in and told him to knock it off. Didn't throw a punch, didn't get aggressive, just stood up and said something wasn't right. Principal told me he was calm but firm ...

Kid: 'Dad why did you name me Jason?' Me: 'Because we wanted to call you something.' Him: 'That's not funny.' Me: 'That's what your mom said.' Nailed it.

Took my boys to get ice cream and when they asked what I wanted I said 'I scream for ice cream' and just stared at them. My oldest literally groaned so loud the server laughed. This is what being a dad is about.

New to the area and trying to find a decent pizza spot. Nothing fancy, just real good pizza that hits different. There's like 5 places within walking distance and I don't wanna waste time trying them all. Anyone local have a go-to recommendation?

So the baby is due in 6 weeks and HR finally approved my full 3 month leave request. I should be excited right? But I'm sitting here thinking about all the projects I'm gonna leave hanging and my boss already seems annoyed even though I gave plenty of notice. Anyone else dealt with this guilt trip f...

Had 6 weeks off and it was incredible being home with the newborn and my older kids. Got back to work yesterday and man, I forgot how draining it is to be 'on' all day with coworkers and meetings. Plus I'm still not sleeping much because of the baby. My boss asked if I was okay because I was quiet i...

We've been separated for 8 months now and have a pretty good routine with the kids. But my 5yo keeps asking questions about why we're not together. I don't want to trash his mom or make it weird. How do you guys handle this? I've been keeping it simple like 'we love you but mommy and daddy are happi...
