No mess art? No way!

I love the idea of an art project that is mess free! It fills three requirements of no mess, easy and fun!!! All you need is a large Ziploc bag (think freezer size), two different colours of paint, some  construction/craft paper, tape and newspaper or paper towel to let your air dry on. To make it more fun for an event […]

Life can’t get any better than this

Spent the weekend at the cottage (actually we are still here). Here are some photo highlights of our weekend!                                                                         […]

Unsolicited advice

I don’t stop people on the street to tell them what they should or should not be doing and neither should people tell me what I should or should not be doing. Two weeks ago my sister Auntie Beige (SEE you made an appearance) offered to take Princess Peach to swim lessons as The Hubster was away […]

A weenie man

This entry is not about penises. Sorry. But the title refers to a children’s song! Listen below: Princess Peach and i listen to lots of music. Sometimes kids music or sometimes “regular” music on the radio. I often try to make her listen to musicals but she doesn’t seem to be a fan (yet). It […]

A Day of Celebration

Not only is today Father’s Day but it is Princess Peach’s 10 month birthday. I can’t believe how fast 10 months have gone by. I feel like it was yesterday that I was pregnant anticipating the arrival of the little person inside me. And here we are 10 months later with an almost walker and I feel […]

It’s there when you need it

Finally sleeping in the hospital with the I.V.

When I was little I had a rare (then it was extremely rare) disease. Luckily, although it took doctors a while to figure out what it was I do not have any lasting side effects. I did have to be monitored for a while and my immune system was non-existent as well so I was susceptible and got lots […]

A sign of the times

In my field I have worked with many children who have used some basic signs to help aid their communication when they are unable to do so with their voice. So, when Princess Peach was born I knew immediately that we would be signing with her. From birth The Hubster and I have been signing […]

Touch and Feel

Princess Peach is now at an age where she is really into touching and exploring everything! She is also really into books these days and loves being read to. It’s so cute to watch her “read” a book to herself and flip the pages. Yesterday, we went on a walk and she had a book with her and the […]

Wordless Wednesday

A pint sized artist!

There is something so freeing and wonderful about finger painting. There are no rules, no boundaries and the masterpieces that are being made are in the artist’s mind and on their finger tips! Anyone no matter what their age or abilities can finger paint. Some might need some help but it’s really such a fun experience! […]
