Happy summer!

To The Hubster and all my teacher friends out there, Happy Summer Vacation!!! Too all the parents out there who have your children home for 8 plus weeks until school starts again: Have fun, make lots of new memories, eat lots of ice cream and s’mores and I wish you all loads of patience, love and giggles. What […]

The last 24 hours

The last 24 hours = stressful. The Hubster and I have been so busy these past two weeks. The Hubster is finishing up another year teaching and with the end of the year comes an insane amount of things; coaches dinners, report cards, awards dinners, meetings etc. I feel like we have hardly seem him or spent […]

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 […]

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 […]

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! […]
