I’ll be the first to admit that John and I are pretty easygoing about our children’s education. Of course we want our kids to try their hardest and succeed, but we know that each of our children’s styles of learning and needs differ. While both Kyle and Ryan are excelling in math, their reading and […]
Healthy kid-approved snacks with siggi’s Icelandic Skyr yogurt
It’s back-to-school…. the time when most parents rejoice and kids sulk. I’m sort of in the middle. I enjoy the routine because it gives me more time to train and work, but I hate the morning rush. Speaking of being rushed… I find it’s not always easy to prepare balanced lunches and snacks for the […]
What I pack for my picky eaters for their school lunch & snacks
Are your kids part of the picky eaters club? It’s a thing… seriously! Luckily, my oldest has outgrown it (can I get an AMEN!), but my younger two kids are as picky as can be, which makes preparing school lunches and snacks a challenge. Fortunately, I’ve found five different meal ideas that I can rotate […]
My sons’ camp didn’t deliver as promised, and I couldn’t be happier about it.
This past week my boys attended a ball hockey camp. This is Kyle’s third year at this camp and Ryan’s second and they have always enjoyed it, so it was a no brainier when we were deciding what camps we would sign them up for. Their camp this week is supposed to teach them ball-hockey […]
Tips for taking your kids to the Dead Sea
If you’re planning a family trip to Israel, a visit to the Dead Sea is a must (in my opinion). You don’t need to spend a night there, but you can make it a fun day trip or a quick visit on your way south to Eilat, like we did. The Dead Sea is a […]

Most people living in Toronto have probably heard of Blue Mountain, located in Grey County, as a local getaway spot. However, it’s probably safe to assume that most of us don’t know much else about Grey County. At least I didn’t. But a few weeks ago, my girlfriends and I were invited to come and […]
How to keep motivated on long runs
It’s official, after 10 half-marathons, I’m training to complete my dream of running a full marathon. It’s 4 months away but I started training for it a month ago. Well, I’ve actually been running consistently for over a year now, so I have a lot of km under my belt. I’m up to running about 22km […]
Girls getaway at Blue Mountain in Grey County
A few weeks ago a few of my girlfriends and I went on a Mom Camp trip to Grey County. The timing was perfect as things at home were super busy. While I knew our trip would be busy as well, it was nice to get my mind focused on something other than my day-to-day […]
Traveling with Kids: What to bring
We recently got back from a family vacation overseas. I’m talking about an 11 hour flight, 7 hour time zone difference all with three kids in tow. That’s no easy feat. It’s been a few years since we’ve traveled so far together and the kids are no longer toddlers. I realized that what we pack […]
Top 5 baby gift registry items for what parents really need!
No, this isn’t some sort of baby announcement. That door is officially closed for business. However, we have lots of friends and family members who are still having babies. As such, the topic of gift-giving often comes up. After having gone through this process three times, I know that there are some baby items and […]
