Just like Pop pop

Welcome to our journal of travels and travails

Once upon a time, the kids and I went on a cross-country road trip which would
mean separating Zuzu and me for eight days–our longest parting to date.
I didn’t want her to worry about me. And, thus, Driving With DaddyMom was born.

Here’s a little gem I found while doing some digital housecleaning. Set your watch back to May of 2004 as Zuzu experiences a giant slide. Her comment after coming down in the second video is must-see DaddyMom TV. 

Stella gets wired

Her big day has come at last: Stella gets her braces and I get a new
recurring payment. Sweeet. This will mark some big changes for Stella–
and probably the rest of us a well.

Getting fitted for her spacers is the start of the braces process for
Stella. She will return Monday for the actual braces. She is so
excited to have this hugely anticipated day here at last. The one
downside: nothing sticky or gooey for the next 30-40 months. Stella
says she’s glad to have taken advantage of the weekend to snarf down
all her Halloween candy.
