#EndMomGuilt

Mom guilt. We all have it and it seems to start the second our babies are born. You know what it feels like. Second, third, and fourth guessing every decision you make as a parent.

You can make a difference! Donate or Participate in the Canadian Breast Cancer Foundation CIBC Run for the Cure

CIBC Run for the Cure My So-Called Mommy Life

Eleven years ago, after completing University, I decided to participate in a walk for Breast Cancer. I was 24-years old, I had just started dating my now husband, and no one in my immediate family had been touched by cancer.  I solicited my friends and family who were extremely generous and helped me reach my […]

It’s hip to be cube with My Mini MixieQ’s

My Mini MixieQ's review

Sometimes when I look at Princess Peach, I see glimpses of myself as a child in her. For example, she can be quite stubborn at times, as was I. She loves performing and thinks she is the best and as a kid, I thought the same thing of myself. There were times that I thought […]

Schick Intuition Razor Rate and Review

Shick Intuition Rate and Review

When you are a parent, everyone always talks about not being able to pee alone.  Since becoming a mom five years ago, if my kids are home, someone is always in the bathroom with me. I don’t understand why everyone always talks about peeing in peace and not showering in peace! As babies my kids would […]

A summer to remember

I had high hopes for summer 2016. Really high hopes. After not being able to enjoy last summer because I was finishing chemo and had my double mastectomy, my goal this summer was to make it amazing! And amazing it was! We swam in the lake, we laughed, we ate ice cream daily, we spent so […]

Happy 5th birthday Princess Peach!

My So-Called Mommy Life

Dear Princess Peach, I can’t believe that you are 5 years old today! A whole hand of fingers. It feels like you were just a baby yet at other times it feels like you’ve been a big kid for so long. You are quite the spirited girl who loves to talk. Your talking could be […]

We’ve been having a pretty fun filled summer. It’s crazy to think that today starts week 7 of summer vacations and we still have a few weeks left! 12 days ago, we had a highlight of our summer when Princess Peach lost her first ever tooth! Here’s what happened: About 3 weeks ago at breakfast, […]

Parenting in the summer versus the school year

My So-Called Mommy Life

I don’t know about you but my parenting has been off its game since the summer started. Or, maybe I’m saying it’s been on its game. I’m really not sure but I’ve noticed the parent I am during the summer is remarkably different from how I parent during the school year.  Here’s why: Lunches: During the […]

My review of Revive Massage on Demand

I think there are two types of people- those who love a massage and those who don’t. I don’t know about you, but I’m part of the group who loves getting a massage. I always have a lot of knots or sore areas, and it is always such a relaxing treat. Recently, I had the […]
