About Me

Babble.com's Top 50 Dad Blogs of 2011!I'm a 32-year-old father and husband born and bred in Massachusetts. I have a beautiful son named Will, a gorgeous wife named MJ who is far too hot to have married me, a dog I love and two cats I put up with. I'm a smart-ass former newspaper reporter with a penchant for turning a phrase, who decided to go corporate and is now enjoying life as a content manager for a website.

This blog is not just another "daddy blog." Sure I write about my son, but these pages are a record of my life. I don't just highlight the fun milestones like first steps, I also chronicle the "other stuff." The fights, the torment and the doubt that inevitably come with being a husband and father. It's not always puppy dogs and rainbows, but it is very real. And often there is beauty in the sadness, redemption in the struggle.

Thank you for checking me out, giving me a try and sticking around for the journey. If you'd like to contact me you can email aaron_gouveia (at) yahoo (dot) com.

Rockin’ Rock Hill

Actually that’s completely untrue since I’ll be traveling to Rock Hill, SC for business. But it sounds good. As cool as a couple of days living the bachelor life in a new city sounds, I’ll probably be holed up in my hotel room after work calling my wife and asking her to hold the phone up to Will’s ear.

What can I say, I’m a puss now.

Anyways, if you’re in the Greater Charlotte area and you wanna party like a rock star possibly go out to dinner with a raging dork who doesn’t stop talking about his kid, hit me up with a comment. And since this is a work trip and I don’t have a laptop, there might not be any posts for the next couple of days but I’ll do my best.

I will, however, be back by Halloween and will post approximately 458 pictures of Will in his Halloween costume.

    I’m guessing that this is your way to weasel out of the fat measuring this week.

    Have a safe trip, ya wuss!

    Oh bummer. You’ve got to get them to assign you to a story in San Francisco or Silicon Valley. Good luck and happy trails!

    Man… I’m about an hour(ish) from there. It’d be cool to meet the Bloggin’ Daddy. Alas, I have six kids and zero free minutes.

    Can’t wait to see Will all dressed up!

    Enjoy the Carolinas! Safe travels. =)
