After a 3 year run, we have decided to close our virtual doors and move onto some new projects.
Our kids are older now and although we still go through painful, expensive, and stinky experiences on a day to day basis, we have given the internet all that we can give.
Stay tuned for announcements on a new project we are working on. Special thanks to all of our readers, contributors, and sponsors. We have enjoyed teaching dads and dads-to-be the things we have learned the hard way.
While you wait, check out some of other current projects:
Mom knows a lot. And she knows you. The combination of those two things makes her THE go to resource in you life for all of the info you don’t know or your partner is unsure about — how to choose a good pineapple (Answer: smell it), whether you can refreeze chicken (Answer: No), whether you were ever vaccinated against Rubella (Answer: probably)…
Yeah, she’s pretty smart but Mom doesn’t know EVERYTHING and she’s propagated some long-standing myths who’s time has come to be debunked.
Noodad.com is busting some of your mom’s warnings – we call ‘em “Mom’isms.” But because we’re in the business of providing useful info applicable to your role as sage molder of young minds, we’re also telling you what you should be telling your kids…
In the crush of the holiday season, a lot gets left to the last minute and being the kind of dads that we are (selfless, sacrificing), the focus is clearly on our broods. Same goes for your partner – conversations related to gift giving revolve around the kids. You can feel good about yourself as a parent but where does that leave you as a dude – most likely with a couple of gifts that are nothing that you’d hoped for if you dared to hope at all.
If you’re anything like us at Noodad, you feel, upon reflection that you had little opportunity (or maybe it’s too little energy) to drop those all too critical hints to the Mrs. that help ensure that you don’t end up with socks in a dopp kit or a cartoon-themed necktie.
While time is short, there’s still time. So in the spirit of brotherly assistance, we offer the 2008 Edition of our “What Dads Should Covet this Holiday Season” list – intended to save you time (from thinking about what you should covet) and energy: our suggestion is to print this article out and leave it on the kitchen table TONIGHT or just leave this page up on the computer screen for your significant other to see next time they check email.
