Things I tumbl through, including status updates, interesting links, and random thoughtsBy day, I am a full time Dad to two incredible girls & an Interactive Marketing consultant. After hours, I can be found talking and writing Red Sox at ESPN Sweetspot Blog Network’s Fire Brand of the American League where I blog and host a weekly podcast or reflecting on being a Dad at {dad.is.me}.Tumblr (3.0; @tdaloisio)http://scatteredbrilliance.com/<img src="http://26.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_lyumogpKgQ1qz9wjyo1_500.jpg"/><br/><br/><p>Sugarbush Day 1 (Taken with <a href="http://instagr.am" target="_blank">Instagram</a> at Sugarbush Resort - Lincoln Peak)</p>http://scatteredbrilliance.com/post/17010232506http://scatteredbrilliance.com/post/17010232506Fri, 03 Feb 2012 22:21:51 -0500<img src="http://29.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_lytr0zPNlo1qz9wjyo1_500.jpg"/><br/><br/><p>And away we go (Taken with <a href="http://instagr.am" target="_blank">Instagram</a> at Sugarbush Resort - Lincoln Peak)</p>http://scatteredbrilliance.com/post/16977429160http://scatteredbrilliance.com/post/16977429160Fri, 03 Feb 2012 10:58:11 -0500<span id="video_player_16865684882">[<a href="http://www.adobe.com/shockwave/download/download.cgi?P1_Prod_Version=ShockwaveFlash" target="_blank">Flash 10</a> is required to watch video.]</span><script type="text/javascript">renderVideo("video_player_16865684882",'http://scatteredbrilliance.com/video_file/16865684882/tumblr_lyq0j6hKGy1qz9wjy',400,300,'poster=http%3A%2F%2Fmedia.tumblr.com%2Ftumblr_lyq0j6hKGy1qz9wjy_r1_frame1.jpg,http%3A%2F%2Fmedia.tumblr.com%2Ftumblr_lyq0j6hKGy1qz9wjy_r1_frame2.jpg,http%3A%2F%2Fmedia.tumblr.com%2Ftumblr_lyq0j6hKGy1qz9wjy_r1_frame3.jpg,http%3A%2F%2Fmedia.tumblr.com%2Ftumblr_lyq0j6hKGy1qz9wjy_r1_frame4.jpg,http%3A%2F%2Fmedia.tumblr.com%2Ftumblr_lyq0j6hKGy1qz9wjy_r1_frame5.jpg')</script><br/><br/>http://scatteredbrilliance.com/post/16865684882http://scatteredbrilliance.com/post/16865684882Wed, 01 Feb 2012 10:33:06 -0500<img src="http://27.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_lybukalKsn1qz9wjyo1_500.jpg"/><br/><br/>http://scatteredbrilliance.com/post/16432787003http://scatteredbrilliance.com/post/16432787003Tue, 24 Jan 2012 18:57:45 -0500“I think parenting young children (and old ones, I’ve heard) is a little like climbing Mount Everest. Brave, adventurous souls try it because they’ve heard there’s magic in the climb. They try because they believe that finishing, or even attempting the climb are impressive accomplishments. They try because during the climb, if they allow themselves to pause and lift their eyes and minds from the pain and drudgery, the views are breathtaking. They try because even though it hurts and it’s hard, there are moments that make it worth the hard. These moments are so intense and unique that many people who reach the top start planning, almost immediately, to climb again. Even though any climber will tell you that most of the climb is treacherous, exhausting, killer. That they literally cried most of the way up.”<br/><br/> - <em><a href="http://www.huffingtonpost.com/glennon-melton/dont-carpe-diem_b_1206346.html" target="_blank">Don’t Carpe Diem</a></em>http://scatteredbrilliance.com/post/16380027128http://scatteredbrilliance.com/post/16380027128Mon, 23 Jan 2012 20:08:25 -0500<span id="video_player_16233609194">[<a href="http://www.adobe.com/shockwave/download/download.cgi?P1_Prod_Version=ShockwaveFlash" target="_blank">Flash 10</a> is required to watch video.]</span><script type="text/javascript">renderVideo("video_player_16233609194",'http://scatteredbrilliance.com/video_file/16233609194/tumblr_ly5shlgokm1qz9wjy',400,300,'poster=http%3A%2F%2Fmedia.tumblr.com%2Ftumblr_ly5shlgokm1qz9wjy_r1_frame1.jpg,http%3A%2F%2Fmedia.tumblr.com%2Ftumblr_ly5shlgokm1qz9wjy_r1_frame2.jpg,http%3A%2F%2Fmedia.tumblr.com%2Ftumblr_ly5shlgokm1qz9wjy_r1_frame3.jpg,http%3A%2F%2Fmedia.tumblr.com%2Ftumblr_ly5shlgokm1qz9wjy_r1_frame4.jpg,http%3A%2F%2Fmedia.tumblr.com%2Ftumblr_ly5shlgokm1qz9wjy_r1_frame5.jpg')</script><br/><br/>http://scatteredbrilliance.com/post/16233609194http://scatteredbrilliance.com/post/16233609194Sat, 21 Jan 2012 12:27:21 -0500<span id="video_player_16233369692">[<a href="http://www.adobe.com/shockwave/download/download.cgi?P1_Prod_Version=ShockwaveFlash" target="_blank">Flash 10</a> is required to watch video.]</span><script type="text/javascript">renderVideo("video_player_16233369692",'http://scatteredbrilliance.com/video_file/16233369692/tumblr_ly5s9vJuqO1qz9wjy',400,300,'poster=http%3A%2F%2Fmedia.tumblr.com%2Ftumblr_ly5s9vJuqO1qz9wjy_r1_frame1.jpg,http%3A%2F%2Fmedia.tumblr.com%2Ftumblr_ly5s9vJuqO1qz9wjy_r1_frame2.jpg,http%3A%2F%2Fmedia.tumblr.com%2Ftumblr_ly5s9vJuqO1qz9wjy_r1_frame3.jpg,http%3A%2F%2Fmedia.tumblr.com%2Ftumblr_ly5s9vJuqO1qz9wjy_r1_frame4.jpg,http%3A%2F%2Fmedia.tumblr.com%2Ftumblr_ly5s9vJuqO1qz9wjy_r1_frame5.jpg')</script><br/><br/>http://scatteredbrilliance.com/post/16233369692http://scatteredbrilliance.com/post/16233369692Sat, 21 Jan 2012 12:22:43 -0500<img src="http://29.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_lxn86rKuA51qz9wjyo1_500.jpg"/><br/><br/>http://scatteredbrilliance.com/post/15674669025http://scatteredbrilliance.com/post/15674669025Wed, 11 Jan 2012 11:52:02 -0500<span id="video_player_15618698007">[<a href="http://www.adobe.com/shockwave/download/download.cgi?P1_Prod_Version=ShockwaveFlash" target="_blank">Flash 10</a> is required to watch video.]</span><script type="text/javascript">renderVideo("video_player_15618698007",'http://scatteredbrilliance.com/video_file/15618698007/tumblr_lxl6eyRdBX1qz9wjy',400,300,'poster=http%3A%2F%2Fmedia.tumblr.com%2Ftumblr_lxl6eyRdBX1qz9wjy_r1_frame1.jpg,http%3A%2F%2Fmedia.tumblr.com%2Ftumblr_lxl6eyRdBX1qz9wjy_r1_frame2.jpg,http%3A%2F%2Fmedia.tumblr.com%2Ftumblr_lxl6eyRdBX1qz9wjy_r1_frame3.jpg,http%3A%2F%2Fmedia.tumblr.com%2Ftumblr_lxl6eyRdBX1qz9wjy_r1_frame4.jpg,http%3A%2F%2Fmedia.tumblr.com%2Ftumblr_lxl6eyRdBX1qz9wjy_r1_frame5.jpg')</script><br/><br/>http://scatteredbrilliance.com/post/15618698007http://scatteredbrilliance.com/post/15618698007Tue, 10 Jan 2012 09:18:34 -0500<img src="http://27.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_lx94vkQ4Y91qz9z1no1_250.jpg"/><br/><br/><p><a class="tumblr_blog" href="http://britmorin.com/post/15272263904/10-tips-to-make-your-phone-photos-amazing-these" target="_blank">brit</a>:</p> <blockquote> <p><a href="http://content.photojojo.com/tips/improve-your-phoneography/" target="_blank">10 Tips to Make Your Phone Photos Amazing</a></p> <p>These are really great tips.</p> </blockquote>http://scatteredbrilliance.com/post/15272295413http://scatteredbrilliance.com/post/15272295413Tue, 03 Jan 2012 21:14:42 -0500<img src="http://25.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_lx8ii8hY0d1qz9wjyo1_500.jpg"/><br/><br/><p>#photojojonewyear (Taken with <a href="http://instagr.am" target="_blank">instagram</a>)</p>http://scatteredbrilliance.com/post/15247405295http://scatteredbrilliance.com/post/15247405295Tue, 03 Jan 2012 13:10:56 -0500photojojonewyear<img src="http://26.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_lx2kalRLvm1qz9wjyo1_500.jpg"/><br/><br/><p>Julia through the years (‘09, ‘10, ‘11) (Taken with <a href="http://instagr.am" target="_blank">instagram</a>)</p>http://scatteredbrilliance.com/post/15079711014http://scatteredbrilliance.com/post/15079711014Sat, 31 Dec 2011 08:03:56 -0500<img src="http://27.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_lx2jbkwTZ21qz9wjyo1_500.jpg"/><br/><br/><p>Someone is very excited to be two!
