Wordless Wednesday – Star Wars Identities

StarWarsKitty

Since we’re big Star Wars fans in our house (as evidenced by Rowan’s Star Wars birthday party and our Star Wars cookies), it’s no surprise that we bought tickets for the Star Wars Identities exhibit at the Canada Aviation and Space Museum as soon as they became available. We all had a lot of fun and the girls . . . → Read More: Wordless Wednesday – Star Wars Identities

Who needs spring?

Who Needs Spring?

Clearly not Ottawa, since we’ve basically skipped right into summer! After months and months of being mostly housebound due to the never-ending winter (please don’t send me hate mail if you still have snow where you are right now!), my girls can’t get enough of being outside these days. It makes for a quiet . . . → Read More: Who needs spring?

ComfyRumps cloth diapers (giveaway)

While I am hopefully in the home stretch of using diapers, I haven’t starting the potty training process with my youngest yet. This means that I’m still looking for cloth diapers that are cute, won’t break the bank (especially since I’m hoping to only be using them for a few more months) and fit . . . → Read More: ComfyRumps cloth diapers (giveaway)

After months and months of heavy layers and feet of snow, it’s such a wonderful change of pace to have splash pants and muddy rubber boots at my front door!

While visiting my mother-in-law this weekend, we went to her church on Saturday for their annual egg hunt and Easter celebration. The girls had so much fun and even had their faces painted which was definitely the highlight of the day!

Wordless Wednesday – 2 more days

Just 2 more days until my baby girl 

turns two! The speed that time is flying by is blowing my mind these days.

It doesn’t help matters that she’s telling everyone that she’s turning 3.  Hang on baby girl, you’re still 1 for the moment!

Wordless Wednesday – Winterlude 2013

Winterlude2013_zps87522153

The weather was slightly less freezing on Sunday so we decided to attempt Winterlude.  The last time that we went was 2 years ago so we were excited to check it out.  We got to cross on the canal – no skating for us this time – and see some of the sculptors working on . . . → Read More: Wordless Wednesday – Winterlude 2013

The years are short

A friend of mine quoted Gretchen Rubin’s “the days are long but the years are short” on her A Gym Tale blog the other week and it’s been echoing in my head ever since.  Being a stay-at-home-mom for the last 3.5 years, I frequently wonder where my day – or week! – has gone; the days are . . . → Read More: The years are short

Wordless Wednesday – Our Christmas Tree Tradition

First came decorating the tree together (for the record, my husband was working, not ignoring us):

 Then I took the girls to pick our their annual ornaments.  Let’s just say no one is surprised with either of their choices:

Wordless Wednesday – Pumpkin Painting

The girls are too young to carve their own pumpkins so we paint them instead!  It was Rowan’s first time using paint ever and she thought it was the greatest thing, and the girls even worked together to paint the pumpkins.  Lots of fun, lots of mess, and a nice long bubble bath to . . . → Read More: Wordless Wednesday – Pumpkin Painting
