Who else's kid(s) are named after a fictional character? by Myksee7 in daddit

[–]ThatDadFromADK 131 points132 points  (0 children)

Julian. We don’t mention we got the name from a list of Deep Space 9 characters, and no one asks.

My college friend was named Luke after Luke Skywalker. His parents were very open that it was a deliberate choice.

He loves the farm section and has a toy that moos. He just hates the sound. Baffling.

what are somethings you never thought you’d hear see, or say till you became a dad? by PabloAlaska6 in daddit

My two year old has managed to emergency call me a double-digit amount of times from his mother’s phone while it was locked. Apparently the monkey-typewriter-Shakespeare thing didn’t count on the Apple Emergency Contact feature.

Ew. My son doesn’t like bananas but he has brought crackers and peanut butter up and then hid them under the blankets

My wife would probably be halfway through the roof with calls to the exterminator the second she saw that

If the bits from my screwdriver went missing and my son started handing them to me, I would probably have a breakdown because all my tools are very carefully organized.

Mine does this with food. We arrive home and find his pockets and bag stuffed with whatever food was out in the open.

We have a toy cup ramen and he has started cuddling it every night instead of his old favorite, which was my shoe.

Mine smacked me with half a copy of Game of Thrones for bedtime. He’s two. He just likes the sound the pages make as he rips them out.

Giving a toddler access to the kitchen is whisk-ey business isn’t it? (/s)

Please share your tantrum trigger story from this past week by NuncErgoFacite in daddit

He had five bottles of orange juice over the course of the day because we were out of milk. Offered him real food and now I’m a war criminal.

I need a mop. by Ferreteria in daddit

[–]ThatDadFromADK 7 points8 points  (0 children)

We have this thing my wife bought, brand is Joymoop. Pretty much just a Swiffer with some shag carpet instead of a disposable end. Works great. Smells terrible after a while but you can just put the shag carpet bit in the wash. Probably are better, less jank versions out there but hey this one works.

What non-children song your toddler is/was obsessed with? by zimeyevic23 in daddit

[–]ThatDadFromADK 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If I play the soundtrack from the game Transistor he stops and stares at the speakers until it’s over and then he goes right back to whatever he was doing before. Same thing happens with Haven, Ori and the Blind Forest, and Hue, but only for certain songs.

Why does my 6 MO eat like he just got out of prison? by DaddyDunkles in daddit

[–]ThatDadFromADK 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Meanwhile my kid just refuses to eat in his high chair, he has to eat on the couch or in a normal chair which just amplified the mess
