Now that school is out, and our summer bucket lists are in full swing, we have been scratching our heads trying to figure out how we were going to make this summer different for our little ones. When our Springfree Trampoline made its way to our backyard, it was pretty much the answer to our […]
A First Birthday Luau for our Rainbow Baby
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…. But before that, this happened… And then THIS happened… It had just been revealed – we’re having a baby boy! My Little Mama has been waiting (im)patiently for her tea party partner to come join her at the enchanted […]
Monochrome Aladdin Inspired Kid’s Bedroom :: A Transformation
A transformation from a gaudy to modern Aladdin inspired kid’s bedroom: With all this talk of Disney’s Aladdin Movie coming out in theatres today, it reminded me of how obsessed my Little Mama has always been with Princess Jasmine. We even had to come up with her very own Aladdin inspired kid’s bedroom. But it […]
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. With every pregnancy […]
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. Despite the odds, we took inconceivable risks (pun, intended) to build our family, and with every step taken on this journey, we had no choice but to close our eyes, roll the dice of life, and hope for a […]
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. Whatever they choose as adults is their decision to make, and I will encourage them to explore and educate themselves as they continue on their […]
Pregnancy and Infant Loss Awareness Day – October 15, 2018
Pregnancy and Infant Loss Awareness day – October 15th, 2018 Today, on Pregnancy and Infant Loss Awareness day, we honor, celebrate, and break the silence of our infertility, losses, and grief. Many assume that once you have your rainbow baby, all of that grief magically disappears. For our family, grief takes on a new meaning […]
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
Ugh. My baby’s growing up. At lightening speed. It’s been an incredible summer spending every waking moment with my family, adjusting to our life as a party of four. And even with my daily dose, I am noticing very quickly how much change is taking place in both my children. Easy to spot the transformation that […]
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 […]
5 Reasons Why My Husband Is Perfect For Me :: Vol. 37 #5Faves
At the risk of sounding cliche, nobody is perfect. But, I can say with no hesitation that my husband is in fact, beyond perfect. My husband is perfect for me, that is. And for Little Mama… I’m not just saying this because it was our 7 year anniversary yesterday. Okay, maybe that has something to do […]
