Thanks to Martyn for the tag. I've been in a blogging slump for a while, this may kickstart things back up.

#DoTheDadDance

#DoTheDadDance

I was delighted when Al at The Dad Network put out the request for Dads to help with this campaign.

I've done my Dad Dance, with my wonderful dance partner #BabyPink. The boys were too embarrassed to join in!

Here we are in action.

Why I Won't be calling #BabyPink "My Pretty Girl" Anymore!



I was watching Dr. Phil this morning. There was an Anorexic lady on, whose family were trying to get her help. To show her what could happen, the mother of another anorexic girl who had taken a seizure and ended up severely brain damaged, purely because of what anorexia had done to her body. Came on the show with her daughter.

A Letter to my Biological Mother

Dear Mammy,

I remember that day in May 2005 I walked into your kitchen. I was a nervous wreck. My hands sweaty, my feet felt heavy, getting harder to lift the closer I got to the door.

International Picnic Day 18th June 2015

The nice folks at House of Fraser sent #BabyPink and the boys one of these lovely picnic blankets to use on International Picnic Day.

Fatherly Advice

The Idea

We all have at least one piece of great advice our fathers gave us when we were young. Some people have more than one. Ron over at +Modern Dad Pages is compiling a list of all this advice and is going to be doing a post after Fathers Day. If you haven't done so, please head over to his post and leave your Dad's advice to you on the post here.

This got me thinking. I've actually had a post in mind or a while now, 18 things I will teach #BabyPink. Getting my head round infographics is taking longer than I anticipated. So until that post is ready I thought I would do a similar post to Ron's, except, this is advice we as Fathers would give our children. Or for the Mammy bloggers a piece of advice their husbands, boyfriends and childrens fathers have given to their kids.

I will then collate this into a post and use it in +El and Baby A and +Kellie Kearney  #linkalist linky.

The Rules

  • One piece of advice each (if you have boys and girls you may do one piece of advice for each)
  • please tag at least one friend and share the post
  • leave your advice as a new comment below

My Advice

Its better to lose playing fairly, than to win dishonestly.
