A few weeks ago, Sarah texted me and said that her belly-button seems to have “popped” and she was wondering if that meant that Caleb was ready to come out. I know that she’s getting to the point in pregnancy where she would love for Caleb to come any day now. And I’m pretty excited [...]
Joy Amidst Sadness
March 15, 2011 By 7 Comments
The past month has been an interesting time for us. As many of you probably know, our official singleton due date was March 20, but we never really felt like that was our real due date. We never really knew when Micah and Judah would be born, but we were told to be ready by [...]
Things Have Been a Little Quiet Around Here
January 15, 2011 By 2 Comments
So, things have been a little quiet around here on DazedDad.com. It’s funny what emotions can do and how they can make you feel. Part of me feels like I just needed some time away from writing about grief, death and our loss. But another part of me feels guilty that I haven’t been writing [...]
A New Year

The above photo was taken between Gooding and Shoshone, Idaho on Highway 26. It’s one of my favorite photos I’ve taken and has come to be the symbol and image I think of when I think of “journey.” And so it is on my mind today as 2010 ends and a new year begins tomorrow. [...]
In Honor of Micah and Judah

There have been some people who have been asking if there is an organization or charity that they can give to, in memory of Micah & Judah. While there are so many worthy organizations, the one we have selected is the Ronald McDonald House Charities. Sarah spent some time volunteering with them, and we are [...]
Wordle Wednesday

I’ve been enjoying Tony Jones’s “Wordle Wednesday” and so I thought I’d run Dazed Dad through it. I’ve always loved these Wordles, and think they make great artistic representations of text content. Try it out for your own site or a paper or article you’ve written.
Hairy Babies Scare Me
October 17, 2010 By 3 Comments
When I was in high school, I remember seeing an infant baptism with a baby that had hair…a LOT of hair. Lots and lots of black hair. And it scared me. I feel like babies, cute babies, shouldn’t come out with a full head of hair. Now – I’m sure if “your” babies had a [...]
Poll: Diapers – Cloth or Disposable?
September 27, 2010 By 16 Comments
Sarah and I talked a bit tonight about diapers. Sarah’s mom, Karen, sent us a copy of the The Eco-nomical Baby Guide: Down-to-Earth Ways for Parents to Save Money and the Planet. Sarah was reading the parts about diapers and she started talking about cloth diapers. Hmmm. Cloth diapers. Yay…..I actually know that cloth diapers [...]
The Incubator is…still…incubating…
September 25, 2010 By 1 Comment
Being pregnant is hard work. I don’t know that from first hand experience, and I certainly am the first to say that I have no idea what it must be like to have your body go through so many changes and to be incubating two little people inside of you. So kudos to my wife! [...]
