This past weekend for us Canadians was a long weekend, due to Family Day being yesterday. It's a new holiday they just came up with about 3 years ago, apparently going from Christmas to Easter was just too long of a wait for a long weekend- and who can argue with that!!! And so began Family Day, which is nothing more than an excuse for a long weekend to spend with your family! lolMy parents came up this weekend for a visit, they only come about once or twice a year (except last year because … [Read more...]

34 today and feeling Fabulous   err....Frumpy???I really want to say Fabulous, doesn't that sound fun? 34 and feeling fabulous? If I was honest though, I would say I'm really feeling tired and cranky! lol That's not good! Which brings me to my Big Birthday Wish, I hope the God's are listening! I've been throwing it out there to the universe 'the secret' style for months now, I've dropped subtle hints, I've even begged and pleaded, and told anyone who will listen- My Big Birthday Wish … [Read more...]

Soooo...WHO watched the Superbowl???? I am in no way, shape or form a football fan, but hey it's the Superbowl right? It was on the whole time and between playing with the kids and walking the dog I kept an eye on it a little bit. The Who?????

And for a second there I got excited that maybe CSI was on! lolMy Saturday was lovely, Big Brother had … [Read more...]

I'm a HUGE fan of children's literature, as an avid reader myself, it is important for me to instill a love of reading into my little guys at a young age.

We also like to make use of our local library to spice … [Read more...]

Just taking a moment to vent here because it has been a rough couple of weeks with the boys. Actually the whole month wasn't so great, maybe it is just post holiday let down. It was sooo great having my husband home for two weeks over the holidays, I loved having a partner in crime, an extra pair of hands, adult conversation throughout the day, someone to lean on...... and now I go it alone, once again, and it's been frustrating. Does anyone else have a kid that hates to leave places??? because … [Read more...]
