Welcome to Dadseyeview: Where Fatherhood Meets Fun

Grab your favorite “#1 Dad” mug, pop in those ear buds (because we all know the little ones will come asking for snacks the moment you press play), and settle in. We’re kicking off Dadseyeview—a blog dedicated to the joys, quirks, laughs, and occasional chaos that comes with being a dad (and part of a family in general). Think of this as your digital backyard, a place to swap dad jokes, share stories, and talk about everything from diaper duty to that teen who’s just discovered sarcasm is a second language.

Why I Started Dadseyeview

After 20 years in the fast-paced world of adtech, life threw me a curveball — three kids, including twins! It was the wake-up call I didn’t know I needed. I realized it was time to step back, refocus, and realign my values with what truly mattered: my family. So, I traded my role as an Ad Exec for a new adventure as a Rad Dad and a financial planner, helping families at all stages of their journey.

Here in Orange County, life is as beautiful as it is expensive. We cherish our quality of life, our surroundings, and, most importantly, the little moments that make it all worthwhile. This space is for all the dads (and moms who stumble upon this *“top-secret”* view of parenting). Together, we’ll share, vent, and explore what it really means to raise kids in this ever-changing, modern world.

So, buckle up — it’s going to be a wild, honest, and meaningful ride. Let’s navigate parenthood, one laugh, lesson, and milestone at a time!

What You Can Expect

You can look forward to real-life tales from the front lines of fatherhood, like epic grocery store meltdowns, impromptu dance parties in the kitchen, and the pure joy of nailing that bedtime story performance (sound effects included). We’ll share tips and tricks, or “dad hacks,” to help you master clever ways to sneak veggies into meals or develop the art of “selective hearing.” Along the way, we’ll focus on family-centered fun with heartwarming moments, community spirit, and plenty of dad jokes to keep things light. And most importantly, this is a space for open conversation, where your thoughts, wins, and even epic fails are all welcome—because they’re all part of the journey.

Where We’re Headed

Moving forward, we’ll explore everything from the best backyard games for the kiddos, to surviving your teenager’s first heartbreak (hint: ice cream helps everyone), to planning that elusive date night. Our goal is to keep it real, keep it supportive, and most importantly, keep it fun.

A Dad Joke to Kick Things Off

Q: Why did the dad bring a ladder to the bar?
A: Because he heard the drinks were on the house.

Stay tuned for more laughter, tips, and heartfelt stories. Together, let’s celebrate the rollercoaster of family life—because if anyone can turn a meltdown into a magical moment, it’s a dad with a sense of humor.
