Preparing our toddler to become an older brother

November 26, 2012 by Maya Fitz

While Kyle isn’t great at socializing with kids his own age, he does love playing with older kids.  He also adores babies; and mostly, he’s very gentle with them.  This is a good thing, since we’re expecting our second child in two months.  From the moment we found out I was pregnant, we told our […]

Add some FUN to your kid’s bath with LUSH!

November 15, 2012 by Maya Fitz

My best-friend first introduced me to LUSH cosmetics when I was pregnant with Kyle.  She bought me a soap (Therapy) to try and said that she liked it because of the natural, made with chemical free components and said it would be very soothing.  With its awesome smell and great feel against my skin, I was […]

Babymoon in Jamaica + Toddler

November 13, 2012 by Maya Fitz

Going on a babymoon seems to be the latest trend these days.  During my first pregnancy, it never even crossed our minds.  We were doing a complete renovation on our house, and since Kyle was to be born in September, we spent most of the summer at the cottage.  That made it feel like enough of […]

My favourite SPOT for personalized gifts; KidSpot. Review & Giveaway (open to all Canadians)

October 25, 2012 by Maya Fitz

Growing-up, believe it or not, my name, MAYA, wasn’t very popular.  I always envied kids who were able to walk into any toy store and find their name all over various paraphernalia.  Whether it was a cup, lunch-bag, key-chains or pens, I wish I could get one with my name. So when I had my son, […]

My 2 year old son only wears brand name clothes

October 22, 2012 by Maya Fitz

Most people assume that if they have boys, they won’t run into the same issues that girls typically have.  Specifically, issues relating to clothes.  Well, not so and I have a two-year old boy to prove it. Kyle has decided to show us his independence through his choice of clothes.  Unfortunately, it’s not as simple as […]

Why this 8 month-old baby needs your support!

October 17, 2012 by Maya Fitz

Strolling my son down the street on Sunday I bumped into my neighbour.  After a few chit-chats, she held back some tears and told me about the horrific ordeal that her family is facing. Her daughter recently flew to Greece for vacation with her husband and two small children.  My neighbour’s youngest grandson, Alexander, at 8 months old, started […]

Finding a nutritious balance for your kids

October 15, 2012 by Maya Fitz

If there’s one thing my husband and I don’t agree on (ya right… 1 thing), it is with regards to feeding our two-year old son. Our disagreement stems from years of being raised on different spectrums of food ideologies.  Growing up, my school lunches consisted of mostly either Nutella on bread or sour cream and olives […]

The deadly sins of sharing on Facebook, by the last person who should give advice on this topic

October 9, 2012 by Maya Fitz

My high school acquaintance recently posted on Facebook the following status: “the less you post to Facebook the less you’ll have to delete later.” While I had a good chuckle to myself, it also made me think. I post A LOT to Facebook. Basically, I tend to error on the side of oversharing.  Of course, my […]

Enjoying some Mom-ME time at Urban Foot & Wellness Clinic; Review and Giveaway

September 21, 2012 by Maya Fitz

Let’s be honest, with a high-energy two-year old in tow, and another on the way, I hardly have any ME time.  And I don’t even mean alone time.  I mean, I’m lucky if I am able to shower every morning and get out of the house without any food stains on my clothes. It’s no surprise […]

The fall of America, the rise of “Honey Boo Boo”

September 18, 2012 by Maya Fitz

Up until a week ago, I’d never heard of the  show Here Comes Honey Boo Boo (on TLC).  I saw a friend’s Facebook status mentioning Honey Boo Boo but not knowing what she’s talking about, I overlooked it.  Coincidently, about an hour later, I saw previews for Honey Boo Boo and decided to watch it.  To say the least, […]
