We’ve all seen the poems, the articles, and the books. “Mom, I won’t always be small, and you’re going to miss these days – enjoy it while it lasts.” While there are certainly aspects of truth in this, I find these things can make us feel guilty about the things we don’t appreciate, the things […]
FASHION FRIDAY: The Little Red Blazer
So excited to welcome my sister Erin back for her monthly fashion feature! I seriously just want to go to my closet and start trying random things on together. This is a great one, guys. Remember, you can follow Erin’s finds on Facebook, or purchase some of them from her Etsy shop, The Laughing Chickadee. […]

Daddies are the best, aren’t they? I mean, obviously, mommies are THE best, but daddies are just the best. This is what happens while I do dishes, and I love listening to the happy sounds coming from the other room. And this is what happens when all the toys are successfully put away and everyone’s […]
Saturday Funny
No sweets for you today because I wasn’t sure if Caramelized Bacon counts as a Saturday Sweet or not…what are your thoughts on that? Chelsea did, however, point me to this K-Mart ad that I cannot stop laughing about, so you have her to thank for a Saturday smile :) Have a great weekend, everyone!

I am going to miss this little face when it heads to school in September. People think I’m joking when I say her going to school means I’ll have to be the parent again, but really, pretty much the only thing she doesn’t do is change diapers. It is no joke, my friends. Please send […]
Monday Moments
Our sweet 4-year-old is a proud preschool graduate :) I’m not sure there’s anything cuter than a bunch of eager 4-year-old faces singing songs, reciting scripture verses, and showing off everything they’ve learned over the year. The same incredible woman has been teaching kids their Bible basics for 28 years now – that’s something worth […]

It’s the beginning of another month! No April Fool’s tricks here, except if you came looking for an accomplished First on the First challenge – no such luck! The challenge this month was banana pudding but that is something I grew up so totally averse to, as I was to any banana-flavoured “desserts”, so I […]
Monday Moments
While Theo and his siblings continue to be completely enamoured with each other, I’m definitely seeing the not-too-distant future where the little guy becomes a source of frustration to his brother and sister. He can only roll one direction so far, but that doesn’t stop him from inching his way around the entire room, looking for a […]

I finally found a way to keep my 2-year-old boy in one place for more than 5 minutes (besides TV) – who would’ve thought painting would be the trick? You don’t generally think it will be a good idea to give paint and paintbrushes to a rambunctious whirlwind, but he’s getting too old to be […]
Monday Moments
On Fridays I go to university. I’m pretty good at school, to be honest, and I really love it. But sometimes I take notes on whatever paper is handy in my purse or around my house, and I look reaaaallly professional pulling out Littlest Pet Shop notes in a meeting. But last Friday? We got […]
