Todays Omaha Woman Article
The article on our group and at home dads is in the current issue of Todays Omaha Woman magazine. It's a free publication found at stands around Omaha. Mike was going to try to get a few copies. Mike has also been contacted by Channel 6 (I believe) about doing an interview.

Convention Update
So far, we have four dads from our group registered to go to KC for the national convention. Mike Njus and I will head down Thursday Nov 9, probably late morning or early afternoon. Rob is heading down Friday afternoon to make it to Boulevard Brewery by 5pm. He has offered to share a ride. He is a member of the LinOma Dads message board. You can sign up by clicking on the link on the left side of this site.

We have dads coming from every corner of the US and Tim is coming down from Montreal. Make sure to let other at home dads you know about this event. It is a great time. We expanded the block of hotel rooms just this week. www.athomedadconvention.com is the website to register.
