My niece Zoe turned 3 years old in May and she really has grown into a little girl. From the little baby that kept her mom and dad up constantly to the little toddler who was shy around her Aunty and Uncle to now this little girl who has such confidence and big smiles for everyone. […]

A day at home with Mommy
The day home was closed one Friday, the day was gloomy and rainy and I was home without a vehicle with the boys. I was secretly hoping the sun would come out and Owen and Brandon and I could go for a walk; and that is why I let Sean take the van to work. Cooped up indoors […]
Gymnastics!
Brandon has hit the age where he can join Owen in gymnastics at Horizon Gymnastics Club. We are all very excited as the last few months Brandon seems more interested wanting to join into class and less patience watching the class. At the beginning of May a new session of gymnastics started and lucky for Brandon […]
Vehicles — It’s a love hate relationship
So Sean and I have been talking on and off for sometime about looking at purchasing a new vehicle or another vehicle. While we love our Mazda Tribute it’s feeling a little small with the two of us, two boys and a dog. We know a minivan is the next step. I know for myself […]
Weddings and Adventure Bus’
So life has gotten in the way of keeping my posts up-to-date, slowly I am catching up. Mid April Sean had his first wedding to shoot and I went along with him to help with carrying around the equipment, be a second shooter, give some tips and support. It was a wonderful opportunity for both of […]
Bowling outside, is spring here?
At the beginning of April, the weather was improving slowly and it seemed that spring was finally here. We ventured out onto the deck and pulled out the Mickey Mouse bowling set Owen received as a birthday gift last year from Uncle Derek, AuntyColette and Zoe. We set it up on the deck and Owen and Brandon […]
One Step Closer…
As all parents know, potty training is an ongoing process. We’ve been working very diligently with Owen in regards to potty training and this week Owen has shown some definite progress. He has pooped in the big potty a few times – such a wonderful less messy thing — and he has told us a few […]
The Easter Bunny, The Easter Bunny!
I started this post prior to Easter and now I find myself finishing it up days after Easter….sigh, this is the life with kids! Easter was fast approaching. Owen is old enough now to understand, to some extent, about the Easter Bunny. The week leading up to Easter we talked about the Easter Bunny to Owen and Brandon; we […]
An Eco-Weekend!
We had a very productive and eco-friendly weekend. After dropping Owen and Dad off at gymnastics Brandon and I took some of the boys baby toys and clothes to Once Upon A Child. This is a wonderful place — they take your gently used baby toys, clothes, really any baby items, sort through them and then give you cash right away — […]
Brandon is 18 months old!
My baby boy is now 18 months old today. Brandon is 31.19 lbs and 34.57 inches tall. Brandon is wearing 3T tops and 24 month pants and wearing size 7 shoes and rubber boots. He seems so much older than his 18 months which I attribute to having a big brother to watch and copy. […]
