A former full-time writer, turned full-time stay-at-home dad, turned part-time stay-at-home dad and part-time writer, turned full-time editor... are you following any of this?!
Me neither.

Dear God, make it stop!
I discovered the very best way to keep Connor calm today. BARNEY!!
holy crap....Carter's got a blog. I do remember a certain blonde fellow in our family making fun of two certain other brothers when they got blogs......
interesting. You'll probably be better at this than either of us. Certainly more entertaining and hume-or-us.
The first thing Rachel said when I told her you were staying home as a "dad", was that "oh, I think you'd be really great at that."
I'm not sure if that's a compliment or a threat. I guess I should go ahead and win that pulitzer now.
1) The stupid music. Apparently the creatively-challenged producers of Barney can't be bothered to write original tunes, so they must rip off music in the public domain-- even the theme song is "Yankee Doodle Dandy!"
2) Barney's voice. Not only is it insipid; he can't speak without chuckling -- even when NOTHING IS REMOTELY FUNNY.
3) The child actors. Paging Dorky Overactors Anonymous!
Hey Carter! I'm enjoying the blog. If you want more annoying (but entertaining) things to show Connor, Hannah regularly leads us to the computer to play the free games at sesamestreet.org and playhousedisney.com.
The exchange of useful tips has now made this is truly a stay-at-home mom/dad forum. I'm kind of embarrassed. I'll try to control myself. Who knew we'd end up like this? Those babies are wonderful, though. I know you're enjoying it and doing it very well!

How do I hate Barney? Oh let me count the ways:
1) The stupid music. Apparently the creatively-challenged producers of Barney can't be bothered to write original tunes, so they must rip off music in the public domain-- even the theme song is "Yankee Doodle Dandy!"
2) Barney's voice. Not only is it insipid; he can't speak without chuckling -- even when NOTHING IS REMOTELY FUNNY.

Aggghhh.
Oh yeah guys, I'm blogging again. I swear it'll last more than a week this time. Honest.
