My Painting Partner
Naughty at Naptime
You know how they say if the kids are being quiet, you better go check on them because they are up to no good? Well, what about when they are supposed to be quiet, like say, at naptime?Last week, Big Brother asked me to trace his feet on his magnadoodle. While doing this I noticed his toes were looking a little 'shiny'. I remembered him watching me paint my toenails last time I did them, but that was weeks ago. I vaguely remember painting one of his with the clear coat and him asking me to take … [Read more...]
Tasty Tuesday- Star Wars Birthday Cake Edition
I was honoured and delighted to have the opportunity to make my buddy Nicholas his 8th Birthday cake! The Birthday Boy is a Star Wars fan, and so a Star Wars birthday cake he must get!

Boy in a Box
My husband and I were so happy to get a new appliance, but happier than even us, were the boys! Not that they were interested in the appliance, but it was the huge box that got them excited! This is now their favourite little crawl space and each of them play in it a few times a day! There is even a hole at the top (which is now a side) that makes a great window for peeking out of ! While I would love to get rid of the Huge box in my house, it's just too much fun for the boys! … [Read more...]
