Fatherhood FridayFatherhood Friday is both a day and a growing community of dads and moms sharing stories, ideas, photos and movies with one topic in mind - fatherhood. In a world that seems happy to deliver a message that dads are incapable buffoons, Dad Blogs is committed to changing that perception. The reality is, as we see it, parents today are more aware of parenting and the impact it has on their children and dads everywhere are becoming more active caregivers.

Fatherhood FridaySo, yeah, we forgot to post Fatherhood Friday last night.  This week's excuse, ahem, is that we are giving our east coast friends first dibs on the links. 

Some site notes, get your badges for the upcoming DB convention in Chicago.  I suggest putting at least four up on your site (real supporters put up eight or more, but w/e).  Seriously though, the badges are cool and available here. Also, let's not forget about the tickets. People are starting to sign up and you can save by signing up early.  It's only $150 and that includes sessions (workshops on blogging, fatherhood and being awesome), lunches and cocktail hours.  Plus you'll have the opportunity to intermingle with the likes of Pete, Joe, Weasel Momma and other DB regulars.  

My family has been in throes of back to school-itis.  Basically, a virus that kids get as soon as they step foot back in school which they then bring home and subsequently affect the entire household with.  I am also busy running two rec programs, on the board of another and coaching the cutest four and five year old soccer players in the world.  I forgot to mention my taxi service that has really taken off, like it usually does, with all the after school activities.  Business is booming in the Joeprah household.  I wonder how everyone else is making out.  I promise to get on track with the Fatherhood Friday Themes again, and I have a couple great Blogger Bios to post over the next few weeks, so stay alert!  Anyways, thanks for hanging tight and waiting for Mr. Linky. 

So, without further ado--the links. 

This week's theme can continue to be back-to-school, or you could also go with the start of the NFL season if that gets your creative juices flowing any better.  Here's what you do when you are apart of Fatherhood Friday.

Our easy to follow guidelines:

  1. Do post a Dad Blogs badge on your blog and watch your popularity grow exponentially
  2. Do link to awesome posts on your blog (link directly to the post, not the homepage)
  3. Do link back to Dad Blogs and Fatherhood Friday
  4. Do not link to something unrelated like how the airspeed of an unladen swallow is loosely related to the spread of dysentery in the Old West
  5. Do visit as many other contributors as possible
  6. Do tweet about your post and add the hashtag "#FatherhoodFriday" to the end of the tweet
    * Are you a Twitter Dad? Add your Twitter ID and link to the list.
  7. Do subscribe to the new Dad Blogs feed

Remember, dads AND moms can participate just post your links below.

Darn! It's Friday again . . . I mean TGIF? My post isn't written yet. I'm looking at Dad Blogs at work. Hey, I'm on lunch! So, I'll write and post when I get home. In the meantime, I'll be reading everyone else's post. Happy FF!
P.S. I've purchased my tickets for the Dad Blog Convention. Have you? Come on! I want to meet all you Dad Bloggers!
