In all my thirty years of being on this planet I had never come across the term “cord blood banking”. That is …until I became a baby maker. I’ve noticed the same thing amongst my friends as well, which is why I thought I would share the research for Cord Blood Banking in Toronto that I gathered for […]
I love hosting tea parties … besides I need an excuse to use the good china I received for the wedding! Recently a friend of mine asked me for some simple recipes as she was planning to host one herself. Figured I might as well share with my all forty regulars (to date). Btw tea […]
It’s been a month and a couple weeks after the delivery and I’ve been super lucky to have my mum with us this entire time. The perks include not having to do one iota of cleaning or cooking.. oh and bathing the little monkey, buying groceries or paying for a baby sitter. Pretty neat eh? However […]
So it was a Monday night… we found ourselves at a pub. No having a baby isn’t THAT tough! It was a friend’s birthday and the pub was right behind our house. I’d like to call it our neighbourhood pub but in all honesty I only go there about once every 6 months. Hence I […]
Today I attended a seminar on daycare advice (hosted by the New Toronto Moms group). Much doom and gloom. Yes I’d heard that we should register for daycare even before you tell your parents you’re expecting! Of course I’m now with a one month old on my hands and am still too lazy. Yet I […]
Yes I am well aware that I’m on mat leave but this didn’t stop me from attending a work function. Ofcourse my line of work can be fun and events have always been the funest part (it’s easy to forget the paperwork, agency negotiations and bureaucracy that clutters the pavement to an execution). This week there was an ABSOLUT […]
Here’ s two randomly crafty things seen around the city in a day : Here’s the perfect gift for the person you don’t really need/want to get a gift – at $2.99 from Winners it’s hard to say no to this purchase! Next time you need […]
Today I stepped out for a quick meet up with some gals as we were celebrating a mutual friend’s birthday. There was a true inspirator at this celebratory dinner-she revealed all these fun tips and tricks she had either heard about or experienced herself which got me thinking of some quirky (and absolutely ridonculous) business […]
Yes I know – the OB said no working out or doing anything remotely strenuous for six weeks after the c-section. It’s been nearly four weeks though! Surely we can do it can’t we? Here’s me ignoring all the horror stories of the stitches splitting open. I mean..the holiday season is around the corner, love is in […]
50 days since I stopped working. 27 days since the Little Monkey arrived. While it’s been fabulous going out and about with baby and the diaper bag that accompanies her, we were looking forward to an evening out with adults (yes .. I know.. it’s been less than a month!). A pub crawl was hosted […]
