Two days after Halloween we left for a family vacation to Jamaica, we couldn't have picked a better time with the cold weather settling in. When we returned this week our house was surrounded by the neighbours reindeer and blinking lights! Christmas already? Canadians are serious about our winter holiday! So while I scramble to peel the bats and ghosts off of the house, my heart really is itching to start celebrating the 'most wonderful time of the year'! The festive season for us is all … [Read more...]
Make it a KINDER Christmas!
Ready, Set, Go! With Kids Travel Zone!
Do your kids play house? My boys play 'Hotel' instead! We are a family who loves, loves, loves to travel! When you have three babies in three years, travel seems to cease for a bit, but when my youngest turned one we started back in slowly with weekend trips around Ontario. By the time he was 3 we took our first big road trip to the United States and now that he's five, we are ready to take on some airplane travel! We've been used to packing everything but the kitchen sink into our minivan for … [Read more...]

Ready for Adventure with Staples Canada
I remember back to school shopping with my mom when I was a kid, it was so exciting to pick out new clothes, back packs and lunch bags! It kind of felt like my birthday, but I got to pick out my own gifts! Fast forward to life with three boys and we tend to have more boys clothes than will fit in our drawers! Yes, my poor children live life in hand-me-downs but that's the way it goes in big families, all of the same gender! They do get to pick their own backpacks and lunch bags though, so these … [Read more...]
Unwrap a Smile with Kinder Canada #KinderMom
September is such a busy month, the kids head back to school, extracurricular activities start up (for us that's swimming and indoor soccer) and we have a little less time to spend as a family.

Whether it's sharing homebaked cookies after school … [Read more...]
