Difference is your raising your boys to be men, not whining about how your children refuse to validate your own sense of self worth...
Is that what they really do, Huck? Wow. That is truly messed up.
Nate, Jeb's going to be a heart surgeon or something!
Hey, those tall sliding boards can be pretty scary. Jeb is a man. Although, I thought he was now only
"Eb."
Did he get his "J" back? I might have missed it.
I think it was the fact that the particular tall sliding board ended in the pool... plus its extremely steep.
Sweet.
You're doing a great job, Nate.
Nate, aren't you a featured speaker at the Blog Her mommyblogger conference?
Josh, I would pay serious money to see Nate take on those chicks!
Well, I don't daddy blog much, but I don't look down on it. It is amazing how fast my little girl learned where I keep the chocolate.

That would be awesome.
There is no such thing as daddy blogging. It's mommy blogging.
Not that there's anything wrong with that...
There is a huge difference between daddy blogging and mommy blogging.
Mommy blogging is whining and complaining about your life and your kids and occasionally telling horrifying embarassing stories on them.
Daddy bloggers never complain about the kids. And a significant percentage of daddy blogging involves using the kid stories to illustrate a larger point.
Thus... the difference.
Clint - you get the J when you become a man.
Nate, it's funny that you should mention Dad blogging.
Why, just today I . . . http://responsiblefather.com
"slider board". Is that a southern thing? Or maybe the north is the only part that refers to them as slides.
Right now my 1 year old son has no fear of slides of any height. I am seriously going to get him a skateboard when he turns two and teach him my ways.
Mommy blogging usually involves recipes, vacation stories, strange hobbies, kid tales, oh... wait a minute...

My limited experience with mommy blogging I noticed the following:
1. Self-righteous right to breastfeed anywhere
2. Diapers that the husband didn't change, and how she is keeping a count.
3. Complaints about the inlaws.
4. More complaints about the daddy.
I avoid those blogs.

Well, if that only applied to their kids it wouldn't be so bad.
Giraffe, I am convinced that there is a genetic thing going on when it comes to females of all ages and chocolate. It just surprises me it took her so long to find its hiding place.
And Josh, it doesn't surprise me at all that you don't know the difference between mommyblogging and daddyblogging. But at least you are openminded enough to learn.
Jeb got his J back the second he went down the slide board.

The force is strong in this one.
It was the cutest thing. She had had M&M's like twice. I smash them in my finger so they melt faster. (First kid choking paranoia). I pick up the bag and pour a few into my hand and here she comes with a big smile pointing at the bag. Same thing with a hershey bar the other day.
There. At least it isn't cat blogging.
Oh, I think SB can start cat blogging any moment!
Giraffe: "... the cutest thing."
That's hilarious!
I'll admit I say that about my kids all the time too.... the youngest can find gum and candy anywhere and he's got such a high pain tolerance, he's not afraid of getting to it or the consequences.... ; ).
Looks kinda like your little one, Nate...
"Nate, Jeb's going to be a heart surgeon or something!"
Or marry one. No sense wasting all that time studying. 
Nate, this is OT but I'm curious to hear Dr. Who's opinion/experience with this subject.
The relevant excerpt:
In 2004, research showed that people with red hair need 20 percent more general anesthesia than blonds and brunettes. A 2005 study indicated that redheads are more sensitive to thermal pain and are more resistant to the effects of local anesthesia.
