Unlike previous years we’ve been extremely lazy on the birthday front and so there was no big bash like there has been in the past. Selfishly, because I’ve been insanely busy attending event after event, I decided to keep things very low key this year and I don’t think the kids noticed too much. At […]
It’s been an insanely busy week for us and I’m looking forward to spending the weekend in Hamilton. Many were surprised to hear that we were heading back there, but since the hubs and I won a weekend getaway, we thought we’d bring the kids along with us as we explore the food and family […]
It’s been a while since we were at a wedding (last one was in Los Angeles when Baby Boy was 2 months and Little Monkey was just over 2 years!) and so I thought I’d share the fab summer suit my mom in law bought for Baby Boy to wear at our cousin’s wedding in […]
Lately we’ve been counting down to the weekends even though we haven’t had any solid plans lined up. Last weekend the hubs created his own tour of some downtown Breweries and I feel like the pressure is ON for me to think of something fun for this weekend. I mean, it IS Father’s Day after […]
Baby Boy and I went for a lunch yesterday and I couldn’t help but click a few pics of him and Bruce Lee…Dac Biet Burgers was a delicious mix of Vietnamese flavours and great for a quick grab and go. This weekend will be spent eating as I have a good friend visiting us…she and […]
We’ve finally had a few snowy days but luckily no snow days when school has been cancelled! Last night my parents surprised us by telling us that they’re taking the kids away for the weekend and so it seems like we’re going to have a kid free weekend but have nothing fun planned. Whooops! I’m still […]
This week we had to attend Little Monkey’s Christmas Concert and we didn’t even know she was in it! Late on Tuesday night we get a text from her teacher “reminding” everyone that the concert was the next day and my plan was to just dismiss it – I mean we don’t have time for that. […]
This weekend is another fun one for us. Tonight Little Monkey and I spend a night at the Toronto Aquarium and tomorrow is Nuit Blanche! The city will be alive into the wee hours of the morning and strollers will be out in full force. Yes it can be chaotic but having experienced Nuit Blanche […]
One of Little Monkey’s favourite activities involves colouring away, for hours at a time. I finally understand why restaurants offer crayons and pencils for kids! It took a while for us to reach this stage but she’s fully into it now and last night before heading to bed, she insisted on colouring a caricature of […]
Today marks the end of Little Monkey’s first full week of school and all that happiness and excitement from last week’s three day week has disappeared. After some probing we’ve discovered that she finds the bus ride and school day to be too long and that she misses us when she’s at school. All normal […]
