Conversations in the DarkI try to get home from work before my kids go to bed.

Maybe less.

Right?  Anyone?  Bueller?  crickets…

Whose Kid Sh*t the Pool?  A couple of weeks ago, my family and I took an unbelievably beautiful trip out to Lake Tahoe.

God’s country.

We stayed with our best friends and their parents.

They have a time share at a very high end Resort and couldn’t have been more gracious hosts.

Rolling Down That Hill

Rolling Down That HillSometimes as adults, we tend to get wrapped up in all the craziness of everyday life.

Things like going to work, taking the kids from place to place, shopping, cooking, cleaning, car repairs, mowing the lawn, paying the bills and whatever else comes up on a daily basis.

It can be terribly stressful and overwhelming.

Why Isn’t This Gross?

Posted by: Aaron Stuesser, July 15, 2010 in 1:17 am

gross babySince having a baby in my life, I’ve discovered that my wife and I have a much higher tolerance for what we find disgusting. Things that would have instantly triggered my gag reflex before parenthood barely register on my personal gross-o-meter now.

The other night, my daughter woke up screaming her head off. My wife was the first responder that night, and as she was fumbling around in the dark, searching for a fallen binky, she ran her hands through something thick and wet. After turning on the lights in the room, she discovered that she had just run her fingers through baby vomit.

We Dont Need No Stinking BoyThat is why this blog is called Out-Numbered.

She’s Like Me

Posted by: , June 21, 2010 in 11:12 am

Shes Like MeMy wife and I have an ongoing debate about who our oldest daughter takes after.

Physically it’s a no brainer.

My wife is stunningly beautiful; or as my 3 year old would say, “stumming”. She has long dark hair, eyes as dark as a moonless sky and she carries herself with the poise of a runway model.

She wins that one.

Temperament however, is the real point of contention.
