I’m a daddy, and yes, I live in the suburbs. Northern Virginia to be exact. I have three small boys (two aged 3 and 18 months at the time I started this blog).

SuburbanDaddy was nominated for Best Washington, DC Local Blog by ParentsConnect. He also serves as a contributing author offering potty training advice for Huggies Pull Ups.

We started with a family round of mini golf, cooled off at Splashdown Water Park, and finished up at Cold Stone Creamery for ice cream (some of us, more on that soon). One of the byproducts of this stay-cation is that Thing 1 and Thing [...]
• Stay-cation Day One - We usually take a family trip to the beach in the summer, which is anything but a vacation for anyone but the kids, but with our new addition this year we weren’t quite ready to go anywhere as a family of six. Instead, we opted for a stay-cation with just Thing 1 and Thing 2. [...]
