About New York Dad

  • Website: http://www.newyorkdadblog.com or email
  • Biography: If you haven't guessed already - I live in New York. I am the father of a beautiful, charming, witty and sharp boy (I'm not just saying that!), the husband of a beautiful, charming, sometimes nagging (she denies it...), sophisticated Italian wife. I myself am a bit of a mutt - American father and Italian mother. Perfectly bi-lingual and often travelling between my beloved New York and Rome. I am a gadget freak, fountain pen collector, stationary obsessed, wristwatch lover, coffee and chocolate gourmet... I am a marketers dream! Ironically, that's exactly my line of work.

My shortest post ever.

On January 23, 2012 in Daddyhood, Parenting

The ferocity with which you find yourself loving and protecting your children as a parent goes beyond any primal instinct I have ever felt in my life. There, I said it. Carry on.

Pinocchio’s Whale and the Hi-Tech Parking Lot

On January 10, 2012 in Daddyhood, Traveling

I got back from Rome about a week ago and have been looking through my travel notes (yes, people still do that). Since I decided to enjoy my holidays away from the computer as much as possible I am just getting around to transferring some of these stories from paper to bytes. The funny thing [...]

No Mo Mo’ – A salute to Movember and farewell to my “Undercover Brother”

On December 2, 2011 in Events, Product Review

So sad to see it go, but alas I am mulling over bringing back the goatee and so after growing the mo’ for all of November for Movember – no mo mo’ for me. Throughout Movember, a group of about 50 dads was spurred on by our fearless ring leader Laid Off Dad and did [...]

My “Undercover Brother”.

On November 28, 2011 in Events

As we turn into the last lap of #Movember , I wanted to confess that I was hoping for an “Abracadabra” look, but with a toddler and a newborn it’s a miracle I haven’t sliced my face up shaving. Therefore, I would like to introduce you to my “Undercover Brother.” He’s a scratchy little bugger. [...]

Newborn vs. Toddler – A (Very) Short Discourse.

On November 21, 2011 in Daddyhood

With a newborn bringing my wife and me back to square one, I find myself double taking as my three and a half year old starts coming into his own. I look at our baby boy and then at my eldest and cannot believe that in such a short amount of time he has become [...]

The Brother P-Touch, my tendency to be OCD and my son’s ABCs.

On November 20, 2011 in Product Review

I am following up on my OCD tendencies and the Brother P-Touch that I received to help fuel those tendencies. The challenge (and parents will appreciate the difficulty level on this one) was to organize and label the kids’ playroom, which in NYC also means the nursery/bedroom since 99% of us live in sardine cans.

Curd, son. Nothing else in the world smells like that.

On October 28, 2011 in Daddyhood, Parenting

I love the smell of curd in the morning! It is something you forget once your child moves on to eating solids. The tangy, slightly pungent smell of regurgitated milk. It is oddly a comforting smell. It is a newborn smell. Certainly better than what happens when you move on to solids and things get [...]

LBK, LAK and reincarnation.

On September 28, 2011 in Daddyhood

I realized early this morning while watching the minute hand on the kitchen clock sweep towards sixteen with the hour hand seemingly stuck on three that last time around I did not have a blog. Last time around was over three years ago when my first son was born and the only blog experience was [...]

The Brother P-Touch and that scuttling noise behind me.

On September 15, 2011 in Product Review

As some of you know from earlier posts (Divide and conquer or fall asleep trying…), I am a bit of a neat freak. Of course as those of you who are parents know all too well tidiness is not part of the job description. The moment I put something away and turn my attention to [...]
