The Summer’s Almost Over
Hi there. It’s been awhile. Yeah, I’ve been slacking on keeping this blog current and I’m pretty OK with that. Still, moving forward, updates should be considerably more frequent. You might (hopefully) notice the new layout but if you don’t you’ve either never been here before or you might need to get your eyes checked. (Read more…)
The Boogers – Let’s Go! Review & Giveaway
On their website, The Boogers claim to be “the world’s most dangerous kids band.” They don’t play death metal so that might not be 100% accurate, but The Boogers do play some of the finest punk rock for kids I’ve ever heard. The band’s 2nd album Let’s Go! is filled with 13 songs of fast (Read more…)
Recess Monkey – The Final Funktier
Not that I’m a kid (even though I oftentimes act like one) but my favorite new kids music band is Recess Monkey (get it?) from Seattle, Washington. Their latest album The Final Funktier is super fun for kids (and grown ups) of all ages. From my perspective they sound like some awesome amalgam of Ben (Read more…)

A bit of a whimper and a few tears
She’s impossible to deal with when she screams in the car… every single time we put her in the car. Really, it’s a shrill-ear-piercing bombast of baby cry, but still, how could anyone not love this face?
My Daughter Hailey vs. Scott Murphy

My Two Girls
Posts have been pretty non-existent as of late, but with good reason. I’m working towards moving this beast of a blog to WordPress, so stay tuned. As for the picture above, yeah, I think they’re pretty cute. Plus, this song is exactly what I can imagine one of them writing about the other. MP3 | (Read more…)
Sisters
Almost a week between posts? Yeah, this whole two kids thing and intermittent sleep thing has been getting the best of me lately. Luckily, baby Teagan is finally starting to sleep for more than just a few hours at a time and that’s a really good thing! Her sister Hailey has also been really sweet (Read more…)
