So, potty training. It’s one of those motherhood milestones. You know the ones. The ones we spend hours thinking, worrying, researching and reading about. We ask three friends what worked for them, we look at every kid who might be remotely the same age as ours to see...
Remember that time we came home from the Holidays, unpacked everything, and realized we were droooowning in toys?! Yep, me too. It was high time for a good old fashioned toy organization/purge in this house, and of course, we filmed all the madness for you! For us,...
I thought a lot about that title. Big Boy. I mean, some days I’m barely able to admit you’re not my baby anymore. But then, some days I’m overwhelmed by the amazing kid you’re growing into. This year you’ve grown into yourself in remarkable ways. Somehow the change...
My mama heart skipped a beat last week when Emmett came to me asking if we could ‘say thank you’ to the firefighters in our neighbourhood. You see, he’d just had firefighters come into his class to talk about what they do to keep our community safe, and in his sweet...

Emmett’s the big brother in our house. Most days it’s a role he takes on willingly, and let me tell you, he embraces his role as the baby-safety police wholeheartedly, “no Char-wee, we don’t chew books” or “no Char-wee, that toy’s not safe. It has tiny pieces”. I mean...
Can we talk about toddlers for a minute? Those magnificently energetic little creatures, with imaginations and emotions that run wild?! Toddlers are amazing at pretend play, exploring and creating. And it’s mind-boggling to see how quickly they grasp new...
My front line product tester, side kick, fun-seeker, sleep-boycotter, and ultimate joy! We're a team! Oh, and did I mention he has a little baby sister too?!
