Show Your Geek Family Pride

I’ve seen more than a few images floating around the internet lately of some fantastic car decals for the geek family, like the AT-AT parents and AT-ST kids. With our new geekling bundle of joy turning my husband and I into a little family of three last month, I began entertaining the idea of representing [...]

Products That Helped Me Survive Baby’s First Two Weeks

The baby product industry is huge. When I was pregnant, I was overwhelmed with just how many “necessary” gadgets there were; things parents-to-be are told that they absolutely need to have. In the end, there’s a lot of fluff and all baby really needs is love, food and shelter… but I admit there were a few products [...]

Geek Links of the Week: Thumb Drives, Plush, Cupcake Stencils, and a Little DIY

Fun with Geeky Papercraft Projects

So with the geekling officially due in less than 2 weeks, I was given a medical recommendation to stop work a week earlier than planned. I feel like I’ve cleaned as much as I can, and I have all of this time on my hands where I’m supposed to be off my feet and resting. [...]
