A new father's life is filled with pride, anxiety, happiness, nervousness, and a gross metric ton (emphasis on gross) of poop-filled diapers. In this memoir, a first year father deals with all of those issues and more. While the first act of fatherhood takes place nine months before birth, what about the twelve afterwards? Through the lens of those dirty diapers, look at the first duty at the hospital, the relative benefits of prunes and bananas, and the plethora of toys affectionately referred to as "Baby Crack." Travel through these topics with humor, a bit of advice, lots of snark, but through it all, love for the joy of being a father.
