I don't know what it is about the word "Underwear", but it always makes my girls crack up in a giggle frenzy. It was my birthday a week ago and my wife got me some new boxers. She had them nicely wrapped and as I unwrapped them and my girls saw what they were, they both pointed and belted out "Ahhhh Hahaha UNDERWEAR!!!!" and then continued to laugh, which ultimately makes me laugh. One thing you have to know about me is that I HATE to shop for clothes for myself. I especially hate to try on clothes. Maybe it was my mom that scarred ...
As a Trophy Husband I am tasked with putting together our daily dinner menu. Even though my kids will eat pretty much everything, I know how easy it is to get into a rut and prepare the same things over and over. I have a friend who loves to cook, but unlike me she has some restrictions to overcome. First restriction which is fairly common is this family is vegetarian by choice. To make things even harder they have a couple of food allergies in there family. They can't have foods with egg nor can they have shellfish. When I started to think of some recipe ...
Because of timing I felt I really had to share this cool web site that a friend of mine posted on Facebook. You can send a Personalized Video from Santa to your kids or even a Friend. Go to this web site http://portablenorthpole.tv and it will take you through 5 steps to customize your video. Your kids or friends will love it. My oldest was amazed. It totally beats the Santa call that Kroger.com has running. Here is the end result of Trophy Husband's personalized video: http://portablenorthpole.tv/watch/f38a31b2fe9193e545d79799e76c09aa Here are some screen shots of the 5 steps to help personalize. It only takes a few minutes ...
Sorry for the delay in posting. I have been a bit under the weather and did a road to Chicago with my 2 girls. The main reason for the road trip was for me to do my annual tailgater at the Bears game with my brother. I brought the girls with me so my parents can see them as well as give my wife a free weekend at home by herself. One of my biggest challenges or maybe I should say anxieties of travelling with 2 girls (ages almost 3 and 5) is having to stop to go to the bathroom at ...
I am sorry it has been awhile since my last post. I had a road trip to Chicago about a week ago (check back in a couple of days for my funny post on "Trophy Husband Road Trip Challenges) and then I have been sick for 4 days. Yeah I know, lame excuse. I definitely wanted to get 2 posts out before Thanksgiving since that weekend will be crazy for me. This isn't a date night recipe and actually this really isn't my recipe. I found it on www.william-sonoma.com I call it "Trophy Husband Beef Barley Soup", because it is Hearty like a ...

Ok, sometimes you have to improvise on Date Night when you have 2 kids. Baby sitters can be expensive or unavailable. So what we do is sell our kids on “Movie Night” for them. What that means is we put a nappy sheet on the floor in front of the tv and let them eat [...]

About a year ago, I was mowing my lawn and there was this car parked down and across the street about 100 yards snapping photos of me. You know, I get that a lot. Usually I would go down and ask if they want me to autograph it but I was in a hurry to [...]

I credit my wife for finding this recipe on www.sparkpeople.comwhich is a pretty cool site if you like to pay attention [...]

My five year old Alexa insists on having chores because she enjoys helping out, A LOT. Who am I to object. One of her chores is helping with the laundry. Mainly she puts everything in the washing machine and dryer and then taking it out.
Normally I use liquid fabric softener but since we are out I started [...]

My 5 year old came home from school the other day after having a discussion on Fire Safety. She wanted to go over what she learned and what we should do at our house in case of a fire.
She was excited to discuss everything she learned.
I asked her what we needed to do if there was a lot of smoke [...]
