Tacklenappy

Not since Harold and Kumar decided to venture to White Castle has there been a more hastily put together attempt to get somewhere. The boys from Tacklenappy.com are trying to get from Melbourne to the Digital Parents Conference 2013 in Sydney on March 20-21. It's the conference for us as we are digital parents (perfect fit hey) and we are getting new business cards and want to personally deliver these to parent bloggers and where better to do so than at this event.

Here’s the tough bit, we don’t have tickets, accommodation, transport or money but apart from that we are set.

I learnt something about myself and parenting on the weekend. I had to look after Kid X and Ernie for 2 x 5 hour stretches

This week I started to fundraise for the annual Pregnancy Loss Australia Victorian Memorial Walkathon. PLA provide teddy bears and valuable resource packs to bereaved families.

On Sunday night Bucky and I made our way into the studios of ABC Melbourne for our first foray into the exciting world of radio. We were interviewed on Babytalk by the very charismatic Penny Johnston and the show focused on sleep, or lack thereof, for parents of young Children.

Today was my first day back at work after 2 weeks of being a full time dad. On one hand it’s a nice change not to be singing nursery rhymes about ducks that like rain and also not having to watch some bloke with a high pitched voice have a discussion with an owl that sounds remarkably like dame Edna about the really annoying gigglemobile.
