Beautiful Calling

A few years back we discovered Lysol No Touch Soap Dispensers and I fell in love. Actually, I think our first one was a sample we got at Walmart. I remember thinking it was sort of a useless idea. Until I tried it. Now it is a kitchen staple! There are many varieties of soap [...]

I love spring. It’s my second favorite time of year. I love the snow melting, the temperatures warming up,  the budding trees…we even spotted our first robin this morning! Another fantastic part of spring? Chocolate! Sweet chocolate. Oh, how I love chocolate. {Yes, I just burst into song!}. For our family, the resurrection is the [...]

When I was offered the chance to participate in the Cavendish From the Farm blog tour, I was excited! You see, I have a life-long love affair with potatoes. As a child, my favorite meal was corned-beef-hash with onion and ketchup. My childhood breakfast staple? Frozen hashbrowns. And truthfully, not much has changed. I still [...]

Last week we were packed into the van and all set to head up north with my parents. Road trip! We went to the mailbox before heading out and much to our surprise and delight, we received a box full of Kinder eggs! Let me tell you, our road trip was tastier with Kinder and [...]

In the past, I’ve participated in the #KinderMom ambassador program. I love sharing fun play-on-the-go ideas, I love being able share that Kinder supports the Children’s Miracle Network, and I love to eat their delicious chocolate. {and share it of course.} Kinder Eggs are a great distraction for trips and car rides. A tasty little [...]

We received a package of these special eggs and the tots were super excited about them. Chloe’s favorite? There are several of these neat train cars in the packages. [...]

This time last year I was enjoying the last trimester of my pregnancy, fully expecting to have another perfectly healthy little baby by summer. What I didn’t expect? To spend over a month living at McMaster Children’s Hospital with my sweet baby in the NICU! Isaac was my third home birthed baby. His birth was [...]

Chloe (5), John (3) and I are super excited about March break. Isaac (9 months) doesn’t care. As a homeschooling family (JK intermittently as of late), March break may have just passed us by but my parents invited our family and my sister’s family to go away with them for two nights to a nearby [...]

  Mommy and Isaac {20+ lbs @ 8 months} I had the privilege of reviewing a  Boba 2G Organic earlier this year. I loved it and thought it worked wonderfully despite Isaac being so young. But between the hypotonia and neck weakness, last summer I decided to try a wrap for the first time ever. [...]
