We carved our pumpkins last night. Well...I didn't. While I wish I could rock my orbs the way Grumble does, I'm pretty happy with our lil punkin this year. Last year after all three kids jumped ship on me I swore we were only going to have one pumpkin that I was simply going to drill holes into. … [Read more...]
Sandy vs Cuyler
Cuyler wins. kind of We started talking about Hurricane Sandy on Sunday. Just very subtle preparation for the kids to expect a very windy night and probably no power for a little while. I replaced the batteries in each of our lanterns so they could act as nightlights if the power did go out. I … [Read more...]
FotoFriday: Fall
I will admit that fall is my least favourite season. Cold. Blustery. Everything seems messy with wet leaves blanketing the ground. But I cannot deny the beauty in the colours. Right in my own backyard … [Read more...]
Gratitude
Dear Cuyler's EA, I just wanted to take the time to say thank you. It was about 13 years ago when you were the Teachers Assisstant in my preschool classroom. Who would have thought that our lives would again intersect the way they did when I found you were the EA in Cam's junior kindergarten … [Read more...]

From what we are hearing he's not the only 11 year old who is a complete jerk all the time. He doesn't listen. He doesn't do what … [Read more...]
Me time
It's been a really busy and stressful past two months. I told Sean that I needed a break. I just need to get away. Even for one night. Just a break from the kids, from the house. From our life. Easier said than done. Between Cam's hockey schedule (Sean is head coach), Sean's work schedule and our … [Read more...]
Here we go again
I've written before about my total aversion to loose teeth. I have three children. There is no way I was going to avoid dealing with loose teeth. I knew that I was going to go through it all over again with Eva. It has started. A few weeks ago Sean darted upstairs to find out why Eva was … [Read more...]

Clueless
We know that raising kids doesn't come with a handbook. Raising kids with special needs? OY! We're going through this blind. With no help. Cuyler is my heart but lately I have no clue what I'm doing with this kid. We are seeing behaviours I never thought we'd be dealing with. Aggression. … [Read more...]
FotoFriday: Food Drive
Similar to Sara's weekend (although not nearly as fun or jam packed) we will be helping crush hunger. Our local food bank is low and one local boy decided that if each family from the participating teams in the hockey tournament that we host this year (and every Thanksgiving weekend) brought non … [Read more...]
