Who are these people?
John and Jen
You can go visit Jen at her blog: Mama's Moon.
What we do agree on, and what is most important to us is our daughter. How are we going to raise her? Well, we're still working on that.

Warren and Jennifer
Hi. I’m Jen and this is my wife, Jenn. What? This isn’t the JenBlog? Oh, I have been so misled.
Actually, I’m Warren and, yes, my wife’s name is Jennifer, which is why I think we’ve been invited to join everyone here. That and the fact that we have two children may have been a contributing factor. Maybe. I have been asked by my wife to contribute our bio for this site and, of course, I was more than happy to oblige. I love writing about myself. All the time. It’s all about me. Me, me, me. Who am I kidding? We have children. It’s never about me anymore. Hell, it’s never about us anymore. It’s all about the children.
Yeah, that’s something I can get behind.
Jenn and I have been together since 1998. We like to tell people we met at church, as it lends an air of respectability to our relationship. We’re both Catholic school grads so it sounds possible. Truth is we met at a bar and not a classy bar at that. I think if they could have surrounded the stage in chicken wire they would have. Patrick Swayze just might have been a bouncer there.
We were married in February 2002 and moved to Connecticut in 2003. Eager to put our jet-setting ways behind us, we had our first child, a son, in June of 2005. Oh, what an interesting birth that was. I won’t bore you with all the details here, but suffice to say a pregnant woman’s blood pressure should never have a systolic starting with a ‘2’ and you should never hear the words ‘seizure,’ ‘kidney failure,’ or ‘swollen liver.’ No warm and fuzzies there. Number two, a daughter, was a breeze (he says as the one with testosterone and no uterus) since the doctor elected to forego the remaining two weeks and deliver early.
So, that’s us in a nutshell (why do I always picture Austin Powers after saying that?). I’m sure you’ll learn more about us as we start posting here – probably more about us than you’d ever want to know.
Jennifer can be found at Mrs. Big Dubya and Warren can be found at Mr. Big Dubya and at DadCentric.
Brandi and Ethan
We are high school sweethearts (don’t gag) and have been together for 15 years, married for 8. We have an almost 2 yr old named Ryan who makes us smile and pull our hair out everyday. I am a SAHM, which is something I never thought I would be. When I say I, I mean Brandi, since I’m the one writing the bio. That’s just how stuff gets done over here. We are native Californians, who have lived in San Diego (love and miss it) and the central valley. Don’t ask where that is cuz you really don’t care. We are now back in the town where we were raised and we LOVE having our family around to baby sit.
Ethan is an engineer. I’m going to leave it at that because anymore talk of lasers and fuel cells might kill me. I will say that engineer-ism seems to be in the family and its in his blood. Ethan is obsessed with cars, but I have a CR-V. Something is wrong with this picture. He is a terrific husband and father, and as long as he isn’t playing World of Warcraft while Ryan is awake, then all is right with our little family.
I have a degree in English, and taught high school, and then I worked at a law firm. I’ve never had a job I truly loved (being a mommy is not being counted in the list). Ryan and I belong to a local playgroup and get out of the house as much as possible. I love to read, especially historical fiction, or anything by Jane Austen. I’m trying to get back into scrapbooking, and am trying to exercise more. I hate to cook, and am still recovering from one year of no consecutive sleep.
Brandi can be found at The Family Whistle.
