Hello every one my name is Daniel and I am new to the group, I have been a stay at home dad for 5 1/2 years my wife and I have 2 children a 5 1/2 year old girl and a 3 1/2 year old boy.
I stopped working when my little girl was born my job was not steady and some weeks only worked 20 hours and my wife has a steady job in a nursing home and day care was going to be to much.

I love to Bake, garden, shoot guns, wood working, playing video games and having fun with the kids.
As a house dad I do most of the house work pluse the yard work I try to bring in extra cash by mowing a few lawns and other yard work for people my wife help some but I do not ask her to she dose enough to suport with her job (some times 60+ hours a week)
I could go on and on but that is the most of it. Oh today is our 8th anniversary yipee

That was a pun.

Hey backpack, you must have the same "Idiot's Guide To Pun Construction" that I do. Fascinating stuff those puns.

Anywho, welcome to the site HB! Nice to see you joining in on the conversations already! I think it is really cool to see guys around these parts that can list baking and shooting as two of the things they love to do. We are definitely changing the world, my brothers! Myself, I prefer general landscaping to gardening, but I am interested in getting into gardening. Maybe we can trade tips sometime.

Nice.

I'm going to try to bake my daughter a Jellyfish-shaped cake for her first birthday. Baking is manly.

we are changing the world is

we are changing the world is right some would say baking and guns seem funny, my mother walked out on us when I was 15 and my father dug him self in to his work and did not get home till 7 pm so I had to start cooking, I took classes in school and made meals and baked cookies for my sister and I. Then my dad and I went hunting in the fall but I think I like to just to target shooting more than hunting.
I fell in love with baking I love to make pies and when you eat a pumpkin pie made from pumpkin from your own garden useing you grandmothers pie crust recipe OMG it is the best, it helps that gardening is in my blood my family ran a vegie farm for over 100 years till the old farm and stand burnt in the 90's and the state (A**H*L*s) took half the land for for a new bypass.
So now my talents feed my family and I teach the kids all I can.
