George and I have never been much into the costume world ourselves, but ever since Smallie, Smallie 2.0 (and the furry smallie siblings that preceded them) came into our lives, we can’t imagine a Halloween without fully immersing ourselves… as a family. Or what has eventually evolved into what we like to call, Fam-o-ween. Along the […]
5 Strategies for Raising an Independent Toddler :: Coco Village 2 in 1 Balance Bike
Raising an Independent toddler, child, or human for that matter, hasn’t always been part of my M.O as mom. Anyone who knows me well – heck, anyone who’s seen me with anyone’s child, let alone my own, knows that I completely define the meaning of helicopter parent. I am guilty of hovering, following, peeking, checking […]

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 […]

Still A Girl :: Grease Monkey Coveralls #Giveaway #Worldwide
I have a little girl who is 1/4 princess, 1/4 baby (#sorrynotsorry), 1/2 monkey. Monkey breaks down even further – 1/2 tomboy, 1/2 unabashedly headstrong. She’s a very complex little girl.

The Balinos aka The Beatles :: FAM-O-WEEN 2017
Oh the Balinos. What will they think of next? This year was one of those last minute scrambles, once again.

City Family fun – Things to do with Kids in Downtown
We’re your everyday, no frills (except on our shirts) no nonsense, all fun, city family. Big city, small city, doesn’t matter what size city, kind of family.

Kids Harem Romper Beach Wear in the Fall
It’s September. The sun’s out, and the beach is still calling for us. As is Little Mama‘s kids harem romper. Where we live, the sun likes to peek out when we least expect it. Rainfall is something we see much more of, but we’ve learned to embrace it while taking full advantage of the days […]

First Day of Kindergarten for Little Mama
It’s the first day of kindergarten for Little Mama. And she is nothing short of thrilled. But me on the other hand… I’m just… sad. Why? Because for the last 5 consecutive years, this has been my life… And now, I can barely lift her in my arms. She’s far too busy reaching her own heights. It’s first […]

Where did July go? Better yet, where did January go? How are we already talking about back to school must dos, when we are barely scratching summer’s surface?

I feel for my Little Mama. Sure, she’s happy, content with life overall, free of any cares in the world.

She has about a gazillion […]
