Conor's first birthday was on a Tuesday so we plan to wait until Saturday to have a party. We're not that into parties but it is his first one so we opted to invite a few of the neighbors. But tonight, we opened his big present from us; a #1 red race car. He and his dog are pretty impressed.Tags: first birthday, milestones, birthday party, red race car, race car, dog, party, neighbors, children, kids, moms, dads, daddecoded, china, usa, toys, cars - See more at: http://dadsdecoded.com/blog/index_files/archive-oct-2012.html#sthash.Q2L0J2iG.dpuf

Is having a kid supposed to be so much fun or have I just lost my marbles? I remember when I was afraid to fly with my family the first time. Screaming babies who rattle my nerves and those around me was a complete waste of energy thinking about. Conor is now 11 months old and a blast to be around. Our 2 1/2 hour flight from New Orleans to Boston was really a pleasure. Seeing my son look out the window of a plane traveling 37,000 feet above the Earth was like being a kid all over again myself. And when he'd get tired of playing and come over and crawl on me like he's a little monkey just makes me laugh. And makes me proud to be a dad.Tags: kids, childen, screaming, flying, airplane, 11 months old, new orleans, boston, son, daddy, dad, plane, airplane, travel, traveling, airplane, dadsdecoded, steve kolander - See more at: http://dadsdecoded.com/blog/index_files/archive-sep-2012.html#sthash.fuCD9zcQ.dpuf
