I Forgot Earth Day

I Forgot Earth Day

Earth Day passed this year without me even noticing (gulp) In years past, I celebrated this day by planting trees, collecting garbage in my neighbourhood, working at environmental demonstration “booths”or at the very least, gardening, but this year, I really, honestly, completely *forgot* all about it, until now. Perhaps this says something about our society [...]

More “Nuduts”

More “Nuduts”

Perhaps I am stating the obvious here, but it seems to be a commonality amongst all children that they like sweets. It appears that Liam is no exception. I recently made the mistake of introducing him to “just a small taste” of one of my worst eating habits…doughnuts! He simply fell in love with them, [...]

First Impressions

First Impressions

Today, we got our first glimpse of our baby to be! It was a short ultrasound which only lasted about 10 minutes, as it was just to “date” the pregnancy (I found out I am 14 weeks, 3 days) right around what we thought actually… It brought back all of the memories and emotions from [...]

Puddle Jumping

Puddle Jumping

Another beautiful spring day today, so we took advantage of the wonderful weather and got outdoors to take care of this and that around the yard. I have realised since owning a house that they are a ton of work, but keeping up with the gardening brings me a lot of joy, and I truly [...]

A Busy Weekend…

A Busy Weekend…

This past Thursday, I hosted a Creative Memories Scrapbooking party! I don’t know about everyone else who attended, but I had a really great time I think it was a combination of getting together with some friends that I hadn’t seen in a while, exchanging stories about our kids and our busy lives, as well [...]

Vacuuming 101

Vacuuming 101

I truly believe that toddlers are the reason that mankind invented the vacuum! Today was one of those days that I wish I could just “re-do.” Liam is getting more and more adventuresome and curious each day, and made his “Dennis the Menace” debut today by getting into everything possible, rattling my nerves, keeping me [...]

Cookies: The Food of Friendship

Cookies: The Food of Friendship

After a quick excursion today, I arrived home tired and hungry. My mind was racing about the many things I hoped to accomplish today, as I knew inside vacuuming, dusting, meal preparations and many other tasks awaited me. From the window of my car, I could see that there was a note hanging on my [...]

This Little “Bun” is worth a Read

This Little “Bun” is worth a Read

I am re-reading Kaz Cooke’s hilarious pregnancy book entitled “A Bun in the Oven: The Real Guide to Pregnancy” and while I have mentioned this author on my blog before, I feel it is worth repeating just how great her books are. I am reading through the chapters, keeping track of the progress of my [...]

Happy Birthday to…ME!

Happy Birthday to…ME!

I turned 30 on Tuesday! I don’t know whether to celebrate, or cry. But they say that 40 is the new 20, so by my calculations, I guess that puts me somewhere around 10! We celebrated the big day quietly, with family. I haven’t been feeling much like partying, what with my current schedule of [...]
