I don’t know about you, but we do a lot of car travel… especially over the holidays! We live about 2.5-3hrs away from both sets of grandparents (by car), so our Christmas break typically turns into a bit of a travelling road show! We pack my husband, myself, all the...
Em’s Top (Treeclub) Toy Tips
It’s that magical time of year. When we slow down a little, and invest some serious time thinking about what those special loved ones in our lives might be thrilled to open on Christmas morning. Who doesn’t want to find the perfect present for their very favourite...
Ponchies! Ponchies! Ponchies!
It’s December! All things warm, cozy, and Christmas-y come to mind when December rolls around for us, and this year is no exception. I have to say, I find great joy in wrapping Em up in layers of winter gear, and watching him explore one of my favourite seasons… snow...
Em’s Woodland One-Derland Birthday!
He’s One. Emmett turned One. Hold the phone. I simultaneously feel astounded that we’re already here, shocked that we made it here in one piece, and immensely excited at what a cool little man our baby growing into. There are so many more (probably horribly cliché)...
Gnawin’ the Nawgum
I estimate that we’re about halfway through this whole teething journey (let a girl dream), which means we’ve had our fair share of drooling, cranky, sleepless nights and understand the sheer insanity that ensues. It also means we’ve tried A LOT of teething solutions…...

Friday Find: Num Num Gootensil
So, our sweet Emmett is an EATER. The kid loves food. Any form, any variety, at any temperature. While most of the time I feel wickedly grateful that he eats well (because trust me… other things, like sleep, don’t come as easily), he’s starting to gain an independent...
Teeny, Tiny Library: IKEA Hack
Emmett has a small nursery. Like teeny, tiny, postage-stamp kind of small. Our fam also happens to have a serious book addiction... my hubby may have basically every book he’s ever read stored on shelves (and in boxes) in our basement. So needless to say, we wanted to...
A Boy and His Bonnet
I love being a boy mom. I love the energy my little guy has, I love his gentle and sweet personality (I swear, it’s in there!), and I love watching him grow and learn everyday. It’s basically the best ever. But I do have to admit, there’s the odd time, like when I’m...
Em’s Diaper Bag Must Haves
I spent a few years in Brownies in my youth, and I’m pretty sure the ‘always be prepared’ motto is lodged in my brain somewhere, dictating that I always over pack. For the first few months of Em’s life, I was basically a mom-sherpa. I carried anything and everything...
