It all began with this shirt… When our faves from Knuckleheads gifted Little Man his very own button down Hawaiian shirt, we were excited for him to grow into it. But for some reason, we just couldn’t figure out on what occasion he could wear it, in spite of the fact he is in every […]
Our Little Rainbow’s First Birthday :: Macaron Smash
Our little Rainbow’s first birthday is today, and we cannot believe it’s been over a year since *this happened….

The 16 Essentials for throwing a Kid’s Rockstar Party :: Thanks to Cricut
Throwing a kid’s rockstar party is no joke. It takes a lot of little details to fine “tune” such an undertaking. Especially when the rockstar is your 8-year-old-rock-lovin’-heavy-metallin’-daughter. One who loves powdered pink, no less. There are some fun essentials every Mama or party planning parent of a rockstar kiddo needs to get the party […]
Spring Declutter :: To Purge or Not to Purge
Sorry I’ve been a little behind on my posts lately…. It’s Spring! Declutter season! That means revisiting every room, every closet, every cabinet, every nook, every cranny, and finding what (and what does not) spark joy. Not surprising, spring clean up also inevitably means the blog has been put on the back burner for the […]
11 Perks of Having a Wide Age Gap Between Siblings
It’s National Siblings Day and we are celebrating in coordinating outfits and coordinating smiles … Well… “ish”… The benefits of having a wide age gap between siblings has been something we have been weighing out since the day I found out I was pregnant for the second time – 6 years ago.

Minnie Mouse Birthday Party – Bows and Bow Ties
“If you can dream it, you can do it” Walt Disney And dream of a Minnie Mouse birthday party, she did.

While […]
Vegas, Baby :: FAM-O-WEEN 2018
This year has been a year of all the good stuff – Good luck, great fortune, and even grander blessings.

DIY Kids Cleopatra and King Tut Halloween Costumes :: Encouraging Kids to Create
“Mommy, we wanna be Cleopatra and King Tut for Halloween”. Sigh. I wasn’t completely convinced that my 7 year old and <gasp> my 4.5 month old understood what this actually entailed. Ever since our local museum featured the beautiful and everso ornate and interactive Egypt: The Time of the Pharoahs display, my Little Mama has been […]
Baptism Day :: Children and Faith
It’s Baptism day and our happy little man in white is more than ready. Raising our children in our faith is something that is especially important to George and I as parents.

You Do You :: Back to School Kid Crush USA
You do you. I found myself saying these very words on repeat today, as I brought Smallie to school for her first day of Grade 2. I don’t even really like that catch phrase to be honest. So cliche, but what’s a mom to advise her little girl who spent most of the summer saying she was pretty […]
My Baby’s Growing Up – Kid Crush USA

Pedalheads Bike Camp :: Building Confidence
It was Pedalheads Bike Camp Week. And what a week it was! Let’s rewind a little bit here. This was life before Pedalheads Bike Camp… Hours upon hours, days upon days – George did his best to teach his firstborn all about life without training wheels. Doesn’t look or sound too bad, right? Well… I’m […]

My Tiny Royal. As I sit here at 4:30 am witnessing the event of the year – Prince Harry marrying Meghan Markle, now Duchess of Sussex, listening to the beautiful gospel choir singing an insane rendition of “Stand By Me”, I am in complete awe. My Tiny Royal is happily asleep in her loft bed […]
