Today on Stay at Home Dads I talk about great vacation ideas if you plan on not going anywhere.  You can still disconnect and have a great time staying close to home with one of these staycation ideas.  From going camping at a state park to having a themed meal and party at your house to playing tourist in your own town, you can still find something that still gives you those vacation vibes.

Dad Classics episode today, stay tuned next week for another minty fresh episode!  

Tonight I wanted to take some time to talk about something that I deal with more often than I realized, and that's having bad days, not physical bad days but mental ones.  Ones that for no reason or for deeper reasons make me a bear to be around, I'm annoyed, grumpy, snippy and short with my wife and even kids at times, it really isn't good. Can you relate?  So how do we pull our selves out of this?

Today on Stay At Home Dads I thought it would be a good idea being it's been a year of doing this podcast, that I readdress the topic of why I'm a stay at home dad.  From the reasons why I do this everyday, to how important it is to me to be able to raise my kids myself.  I also toss out a few personal tips on being a stay at home parent and how to deal with possibly criticism.  Links from this episode are listed below.
