Yes, Theo, you are soooo big! But there is still a lot for you to learn. Here are some of the important revelations that have come lately… Yes, that is for you. It’s your birthday! This is how we do. Yes, that is also for you, despite being less awesome than tissue paper. Happy birthday! […]

It’s a completely gorgeous fall day, my house is full of cupcakes and icing, all the kids slept through the night, and my curls held, meaning the time spent on my hair was not totally wasted. It’s the little things, folks. Here are some of the other little things making me happy lately… 1) New […]

The fall weather has been amaaazing here, with day after day of the bluest sky as the backdrop for all the colours of changing leaves and the crispness of perfect fall temperatures that make me (yes,intensely indoorsy me) want to be outside all day long. We took advantage of the weather last week for a […]

Happy Labour Day from my neeewwww laptop! I didn’t even remember what is was like to have a fully functioning screen at any angle, without mild electric shocks from the exposed wires resting on my rapidly overheating knee. I had forgotten it was possible to unplug a laptop and take it somewhere! Best back-to-school splurge […]

Settle in, boys and girls, the pictures are going to come fast and furious today, just like they do in my home.

My youngest sister is getting married next week and I can’t wait to see her walk down the aisle. In the meantime, we are having all sorts of fun with the family we rarely get to see. We aren’t very good at capturing everything, like the kids sitting beside Babu singing all the songs […]

Problems that require “man work”. Carl couldn’t have been more thrilled to discover our friends down the road had a little Bobcat sitting in their backyard […]

This sweet, joyful, cuddly little guy is 6 months old today! Does half a year really go by so fast? He is fully into the toe-grabbing stage, which is always one of my favourites, although socks are out of the question unless they are clean and non-fluffy enough to qualify as chew toys. He is […]

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 […]

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 […]
