“I’m going to say thank you to grandma for a game thing. And I love you Uncle John. Daddy?”

My nephew is at that age.

“It’s Caleb! It’s Carter” (The Gift)

Halcyon — Sun, 27 Dec 2009 19:10:33 +0000

For Xmas, I had Matthew Gehrett create a themesong for my nephews. “It’s Caleb! It’s Carter!”

LYRICS:

They like anything with great big teeth

They like dinosaurs, but they hate toy thieves

They like Spiderman and they like to rock

They like Mary Jane, but they hate Doc Ock.

Lizard Quest – Part 1

Halcyon — Mon, 12 Oct 2009 16:39:02 +0000

I used to loooove catching lizards when I was a kid. This weekend I helped Caleb catch his first lizard. (And helped show him how to be verrry gentle.)

more pics of lizard play and mud pies.

Cutesploitation

Halcyon — Fri, 10 Jul 2009 05:30:23 +0000

I coined a word while submitting a panel idea for SXSW 2010

Casting Crib Cutesploitation – Using Your Kids As Content.

What every parent should consider before uploading their offspring.
They are adorable little miracles that should be shared with the world. And who isn’t delighted by the youtube’d laughter of a child? (Or a drugged up kid after dentist.)
But when does a bathtime video cross the line into “need for future therapy?” Or worse yet, a felony sex offense?
Parents will address the costs/benefits of their decision process and the personal/public lines they’ve drawn in the sandbox.

I realized that – while I was so enjoying recording and sharing my nephew on 90secs.com – there are ethical issues I should get clear on.

“Daddy T-Rex” – 90secs

Halcyon — Sat, 23 May 2009 19:16:08 +0000

Today was my brother’s birthday. I stopped by to see him as he worked from home. While I was there, I got to see him being such an awesome dad. He & Jen are parenting superheroes. (Or super-reptiles)
