Doug Charon of Isn’t That Charming fame (aka “Isn’t That Doug”) and I are teaming up for this week’s installment of the Motherhood Series. I am in complete awe of Kelly and Emily as moms, and I think my inclusion as a writer in this series will likely be a straight-up insult to the very concept of motherhood. But we’re giving our wives the day off. :) Aren’t we gentlemen?!

Doug and I have bandied about a few concepts for this post. Some of ’em included “Why Are We Doing This?” “How to BS a Motherhood Post” and “Procrastination For New Dads.” But we settled on “The Dad Survival Guide” because any new dad can agree that this is exactly what we’re all doing: raise some great kids, have fun doing it, and survive.
