Alexandra was born Feb 12th and that day was filled with so much chaos! Firstly she was born vaginally without medical intervention. No drugs people. No drugs. And it was the best. I'll have to talk about that in another post.I had to stay in the hospital for two nights because of complications. … [Read more...]
Look what I made mommy! oh yeah it’s all about the arts and crap….
When my oldest two were younger and had just started school I remember how excited I was whenever they brought home any kind of art work. Full of pride, I would hang it on the fridge or kitchen wall convincing myself that they were going to be famous artists one day.Then I had more children.All … [Read more...]
Bring On the Vitamin D!
Winter sucks the life from my soul.I never quite realize how weary and zoned-out I've become until that first day of sunshine hits and it feels like my crusty ol' heart begins to beat afresh.Today it felt like spring. I went to the park with the kids and really watched them play. Then we went and … [Read more...]
Take a “break” from cooking & eat at Fancy Franks
Even though I'm chronologically 39 (yikes!)-years-old and feeling more and more my age every day, in my mind there are tons of times I still feel like a kid. Like how I still laugh at toilet humour. Or how I still love all those gross-out movies like (don't judge me) Jackass and The … [Read more...]

Give us this day, my daily shower!
While I was pregnant with my son I started Oh Baby! Magazine and that's when my 'education' began. It seems like I was reading everything online (and off) about pregnancy and baby. One of the things I started to really hate was the concept that new moms don't have time to shower. This made me … [Read more...]
MARCH BREAK and CHILDREN

grocery shopping for eight
The other day somebody asked me how much food my family goes through in a week. My answer was A LOT! This question had been asked a while ago and it was the same answer A LOT, but at that time the twins really were not eating that much so I didn't really include them. My children … [Read more...]
Vegetarian Lasagna…with vegetables?
"Mom, just because you make vegetarian lasagna, it doesn't mean you have to add in all those vegetables." Said my daughter on Monday as we embarked on our second week of Meatless Mondays."Ummm. Yes it does," I thought to myself. Thought being the operative word because had I dared … [Read more...]
