Before we get started, I wanted to say that this post isn’t about being a meat (fish, eggs and dairy) eater vs. not! It’s a post about eating healthier. Only you can decide what to do with this information. There is zero judgement here. I am not a vegan and I have eaten meat, eggs, […]
The trouble with older siblings
Kyle was in grade 1 when my perfectly sheltered and innocent son came home ‘changed.’ You see, he learned a new word at school that day. A swear word to be exact. While I knew this day would eventually happen, I didn’t realize it would happen when he was just 6 years old. After some […]
The year of putting myself first – here’s what I learned!
As I sit here to type my thoughts about this past year, I actually can’t believe it’s been a year. Sadly, I can’t remember to ever committing to anything this longer (other than my marriage and kids). So… where to start? The beginning is always a good place to start (name that movie anyone?). So […]
Why we use Reading Eggs program for our kids homework
Ryan and Nathan, my youngest two boys, are in Senior and Junior kindergarten respectively. While some of the parents of their peers worry about what they’re learning (reading / writing), I mostly want them to gain social skills and learn through play. However, I’ve noticed a big discrepancy between what Ryan and Nathan are learning […]

Beachbody versus BBG (Sweat); A review and comparison.
It’s been almost a year since I started my health and wellness journey. While the journey hasn’t been perfect, I have continued to focus on my health and strength regularly. Previously I would solely focus on my diet but this time I am focusing on both diet and exercise. I started off my journey with […]
Now that my kids are in school full time, I’m happier. Does that make me a bad mom?
The choice to become a stay-at-home-mom (SAHM) was all mine. When I was pregnant, I was contemplating this decision, but couldn’t make up my mind. Luckily, I knew I had a year to think about it. Oddly enough, Kyle’s first year of life was really hard on me. The transition into parenthood wasn’t easy, and Kyle […]
Top 6 things to experience with your kids in Tremblant
December is always an exciting time for our family. It’s a month full of holiday celebrations, the kids are off school for winter break, and we always go on a family ski trip to Tremblant (Quebec). We’ve been to Tremeblant with our kids five times. The experience is always different, but always fun. Having tried […]
New Years Reflections over Resolutions
Welcome to a new year. Some of us view it as a clean slate and a new beginning. I prefer to think of it as another day. Why? Because if you want to make a change, or start something new, it doesn’t matter WHEN you do it. The important thing is to do it. That’s […]

A little over a year ago we made the move to our ‘forever’ home. John loved it because it was right across from the school, which meant our ‘backyard’ was now HUGE for the boys to run around in and play. I liked it because of its proximity to the school (Kyle can basically zip […]
