Wedding Week!

Happy Monday everyone! It’s finally wedding week, with our stunning little sister Erin all set to tie the knot with her handsome beau this Saturday! We leave tomorrow for the land of wedding wonder, aka Ontario, and between the two of us and our kiddos you might want to change to a different flight if […]

Double Trouble

Double Trouble

Gemma loves her little brother, but he just doesn’t hold a candle to this sweet little cousin she can still hang on to, and who finds her every move wildly entertaining. Especially when the little miss showed up in a matching pink shirt, Gemma was beside herself with nurturing excitement. We had the pleasure of […]

What I’ve Learned

What I’ve Learned

You know those mornings? You know, those mornings, when you’re up at 5am writing a blog post, when you’d really rather be curled in your deliciously warm and cozy bed, but someone *ahem* is making that quite impossible?

The Baby Naming Challenge

January 3, 2012 by Anna 18 Comments

The Baby Naming Challenge

I have a rambunctious, dramatic, jealous, clingy, climbing, unreasonable, pushy, frustrating, totally loveable 16-month-old boy named Kristopher. Kristopher means “bearer of Christ”, which I love. But really, most days I’m surprised he has a name at all. Choosing a boy’s name just about killed me. It just about ended my marriage. It prevented me from […]

The Wheaties Box Story

The Wheaties Box Story

One time Carl was on a Wheaties box. I think this is hilarious.  Look at that cereal box.  Breakfast of champions, that’s what I’m talkin’ about. Good story, right? It gets better.  He didn’t KNOW he was on a Wheaties box.  You’d think they need permission for this type of thing, but nope.  If you’re […]

The sweetest thing

June 13, 2011 by Anna 2 Comments

The sweetest thing

Our little guy doesn’t need/want nearly as much sleep as his big sister did, which took a little getting used to.  As much as we love his high energy, spastic awakeness, there is still nothing sweeter to me than a sleeping baby. He’s just started sleeping on his side/stomach, since he usually falls asleep mid-roll […]

Les Holidaies

Les Holidaies

Pardon my French. Since moving back to BC in August we’ve gotten to see much more of Brandon and Chelsea (well, anything would have been so much more since they *ahem* never came to visit us in Ottawa), but mostly it’s been because they’ve come to the coast and we’re lucky enough to be slotted […]
