My son’s teacher gets the final say

April 21, 2015 by Maya Fitz

My oldest son Kyle may be four (and a half – as he loves to state), but sometimes I feel like we’re raising a teen. While he doesn’t mess around when we tell him that there will be consequences for behaving a certain way, he’s already questioning our requests and answers. Lately, we’ve noticed that […]

Visit me at the Toronto Bridal Show & #OwnTheThrone

April 10, 2015 by Maya Fitz

I remember my wedding day like it was just yesterday. I was surrounded by family, friends and loved ones, all there to witness the marriage between my husband and I. The day was fun, relatively flawless and went by much too quickly. I would do it ALL over again without changing a thing. EXCEPT… leading […]

Today, I failed as a parent

April 8, 2015 by Maya Fitz

Today, I failed as a parent. It was 7:30 PM and I was losing my mind. It wasn’t the first time this had happened today. I probably lost my cool on three separate occasions. But tonight, I made threats, I yelled and I stomped on the floor as I was heading towards my sons’ room. […]

April 7, 2015 by Maya Fitz

My blogging friend Renee who writes at My So Called Mommy Life (who you should totally follow if you don’t already) published a post titled “10 things you didn’t know about me”. I thought it was a great idea and while I tend to over share on my blog, there’s some tidbits I haven’t shared… Yet […]

Spring forward with Boogie Wipes & Mist

March 31, 2015 by Maya Fitz

This past March 8th was a day most parents loath. Like clockwork, it comes every year. Actually… twice, and it’s called daylight savings time. We might have changed the clocks forward one hour, but for the majority of parents with young kids, it created a big change in their children’s sleeping behaviour. Setting the clocks one hour […]

Carving out daily ME time to unwind

March 30, 2015 by Maya Fitz

As a stay-at-home mom, my day is typically divided into three. My Boys time, Family time, and ME time. In certain aspects and for different reasons, I enjoy each part equally. Of course, when my kids are throwing tantrums and my husband is out of town for work and I’m repeating myself for the 100th […]
