I have very fond memories from my childhood of Christmas. I remember going out at night as a family and driving around the city to check out all of the “hot” spots and neighborhoods decked out with lights. I remember going over to my neighbour’s house and helping her decorate their Christmas tree and helping her […]

The holidays are here and this year is extra festive for us since Hanukka and Christmas fall on the same day! Double the fun and double the gifts. Things can get expensive and our house might resemble a small toy store, but it’s all about the kids, right?!?! I hope you enjoy this list I’ve […]
My favourite part of the holiday season
Besides the glitter, shopping, delicious food and family time, there’s one more thing that I love about the holidays. As a mom to three young kids, it’s not often that I get a night out. Between traveling for work and a variety of work-related events or family functions, we don’t really have much time for […]
Stop comPARENTing and just do parenting your way!
Parenting in the 21st century sure does have its challenges. We have like a hundred different labels for the type of parenting styles that we embody including; helicopter, free-range, tiger-mom, attachment and dolphin (I don’t even know what that one is). And you HAVE TO pick one! That’s the rule… according to someone, who probably […]
Give the Gift of Holiday Cheer To a Kid That Can’t Be Home For The Holidays
Last week I had an amazing and very emotional experience at The Hospital for Sick Children (SickKids). I received a behind the scenes tour of the facility and I got to meet some of the wonderful staff that make such a big impact and difference in children’s lives. I also got to hear first hand […]
Raising a Toast To My Family!
One of my favourite family traditions is Friday night meals. While it originated as a religious symbol to welcome the Sabbath, it really has become so much more. It’s a great way to reconnect with my family and loved ones while sitting down for a three (yes, THREE) course meal, converse (mostly tech free) and catch […]
How to Make Informed Food Choices for Your Family. Plus a Giveaway!
Last week I took my family to the Royal Agricultural Winter Fair. It was our first time going but I knew the boys would love it. Having visited several farms, earlier in the year, I knew they would enjoy this type of experience. Except, we walked away with so much more than I expected. The […]
Parenting; You Just Can’t Win!
The saying ‘the years are short but the days are long’ couldn’t be any more true when you’re talking about parenting. If you don’t know what I’m talking about, you’re either new to the game (like you JUST had a baby), live in a cave or live in a fantasy world (and please can I […]
Nate’s Superhero Birthday Party
I can’t believe it’s already been over 2 months since my “baby” turned two. Since he was born on September 1st, we usually celebrate his birthday over the labour day long-weekend up at the cottage. Only fitting since he was actually born on Labour Day! The theme was Superheros. Nate might only be two, but […]
Planning my birthday celebration getaway
Celebrating my birthday isn’t what it used to be. In fact, there is no more celebrating… other than some acknowledgment, shopping for myself guilt-free and perhaps eating dinner out. Really it’s just like most ordinary days. This is because mine and my husband’s birthdays are overshadowed by our children’s birthdays, which involve months of planning […]
