smonk you: the best freaking daddy blog ever

There was one guest post I wasn't able to fit into last week's Girls Girls Girls week. It's from Staci, my wife. She's awesome...but you have to wonder why she puts up with me daily...it can't be easy. Now that there is a mini-Kenny around it will only get worse. She's fantastic teacher, a great wife and a awesome wife. You may know a bit about her from the blog but here are some things you might not know: She makes the word "cold" into a 2 syllable word. Co-wald (think about that as you read) She used to 2 spaces after a period but it looks like she made the switch to 1...which is correct However she doesn't bake...I wish she baked...I like baked goods...especially scones She does buy good pastries so that's good. She has tiny feet. I once bought her snowboard boots by seeing if my hand fit...it did and the boots fit her She adds extra modifiers onto words. Like if she has a cut on her knee she says she cut her knee-skin She has a s...

As the greatest guest post week in the history of blogs comes to an end I'd like to first say thanks to all my guest posters and everyone who came and read their posts. Last up we have Morgan from The818 . I think I found her blog from Top Baby Blogs (shameless link to get you to vote for me) and it was really the first mommy blog I really liked. Check it out if you haven't...it's a fantastic miss of her life with Delilah and Scott with some great design stuff peppered in. Here are things you'll want to know about Morgan: She's married to Scott...this makes her the 3rd guest this week married to a Scott (or Scot) She says she's from The 818 but that is not totally confirmed...she could be from The 747  Either way she lives 2 blocks from a great friend of mine but they don't know each other...however they probably see each other at a coffeehouse or something because the world is weird like that Her Torah portion was much more boring than mine She ha...

Before I introduce my next guest poster I wanted to let you know that my plan of complete slack this week failed as I have a guest post of my own over at For The Birds ...it's about some craziness that happened when my wife was out of town. Thanks Ry for asking me to post. Okay...now on to Becky from Mommy Wants Vodka ...I guess I should start by saying that today she is a year older than she was 2 days ago. Here's some other things you should know: She lives in an undisclosed city that I once drove to to check out a used view camera...the camera sucked. You can often find her hanging ate Chili's with Jen, who guest posted 2 days ago...often could be a stretch. She's sarcastic, tells it like it is and is droll like me which is why you need to check out her blog . Her current twitter avatar is rather stoic so it kind of cracks me up a bit more when I read her tweets. If she was ever hired by Hallmark their sales would skyrocket She's writing a book that i...

Today's post was written by Mandy over at Harper's Happenings . Mandy is like the little sister I never wanted (just remember I said it first.) I wasn't even going to let her be a part of this but I get a number of emails from her each day begging me to guest post. Here are some things you may not know about Mandy. she has worked at a coffee house and at Target (as have i both except I never had to wear red and khaki)  she eats a hell of a lot of Pho when she grows up she wants to own a Narwhal farm even though she loves Narwhals there is a rumor that she kills cute little seals for fun she doesn't know where the shift key is Mandy is also a force to be reckoned with on the Twitter so find her here . And if you find yourself at BlogHer in NYC you can stalk all 5 of my awesome guest posters (postees?) this week there. Also if you find yourself there head to 46th and 6th and but a falafel sandwich from Moshe's falafel cart...you're welcome. there are num...

The Next Martha actually has a real name and it is Jen. She writes about 30 different blogs including; The Martha Project ,   a blog about raising a gifted kid, and a "fat blog", where she adds mayo to things that should not have mayo. But the real gold comes from her @thenextmartha twitter updates...they are such gold that if you aren't on twitter you should be just to read them. One thing I should mention is this post is an exclusive...it is incredibly timely as some of the events happened at the end of last week. I paid her huge dollars to get this exclusive so I hope you enjoy. When Kenny asked me to guest post I jumped to say yes. He’s like my long lost Jewish hash brown eating brother. To say I like him is like saying that he doesn’t care for cheese. Though he’s not at the toilet training phase of parenthood, when he is I will NOT have any advice for him. I Have No Toilet Training Advice I started when most people in this country start. I started tal...

I have a strict no girls allowed policy on my blog...but to celebrate the one year anniversary of Smonk You I decided to allow some girls to hang here just this one time. The line-up is FANTASTIC, so please stop by everyday to check them out, and remember to check out their blogs too for more greatness. First up is Mae from Parenting in Progress...she's a fantastic writer of words and will often throw out some awesome tweets . She asked if I had any ideas for a post and I said something about gardening because I'm a little jealous that she has a garden...but there's a reason we live in a row-house with 10 square feet of lawn that I never have to touch. Because if I had to take care of a garden or a lawn it would be dead. And after you check out her post here check out her blog and check out this post that I will steal sometime in the future (but of course change the names.) I'm really excited to be guest posting for Kenny and apparently he likes the posts in ...
