Remember how I said we've embarked on The Summer of the Sundress? Well, we certainly have, but there are times when shorts just have to be the thing. I mean, really. And I got the child to acquiesce when we received these handsome green plaid cuffed shorts from a friend (the same lady who … [Read more...]
S.O.S (summer or sleep?)
Out of all the seasons, summer, by far, is the favourite around my household. Don’t get me wrong we’re fans of all 4(what other choice do we have right?) but my crew is more into shorts and flip flops than toques and snow shoes. Summer is where it’s at, parks, bike rides, pools, splash pads, … [Read more...]
This Is How We Roll
Most days the little turkeys get driven to camp, but there are some days when me and my little scooter ninjas just have to ride... we make quite the spectacular little posse, you know - ready to terrorize y'alls neighbourhood. And every time I look out in front of me, watching the little … [Read more...]
From My Closet – July 17th, 2013
Lawd, but it's hawt. (This is not a complaint, Universe - just an observation.) Like in most Canadian cities, summer really means stripping down and enjoying the heat on one's skin. In Montreal? People are walking around practically nekkid. That's because we spend the other ten months of the year … [Read more...]
Urban Kid Closet – July 16th, 2013
I tell you, it's The Summer of the Sundress for this little girl. I can barely get her into shorts at all. (She says she feels pretty in a dress. What can I say, really?!) Fortunately, I bought a few end-of-season sale items to put away for this year... in this case, we fell into the Gap. At … [Read more...]
WOWing Them At The BBQ
It's mid-July and summer BBQs are a plenty. But are you like me? Are you kinda getting a little tired of the iron steak on the BBQ with the same old, same old spices? Or throwing on burgers? Threading a few kebabs? Brush the olive oil on the veggies? Sides of potato salad and cole slaw? White Burger … [Read more...]
Urban Kid Closet – July 11th, 2013
Oh, Old Navy, you've done it again... this time it's an A-line cotton sundress, so simple in it's shape and design. I wasn't sure I'd love the bright floral - I worried it might be just... too damned bright - but against the grey-green background colour, this dress is a winner. Of course, those … [Read more...]
Blue Mountain Segway Adventure
Planning a vacation in the summer can be challenging. Finding a spot that offers a variety of activities for both kids and adults, whether it's a week or just a couple of days away, can be exhausting. I had the opportunity to spend the last few days at Blue Mountain Resort in Collingwood, Ontario … [Read more...]
TV Host Patty Sullivan chats about CBC, Kids & #ZombieMoms
You know her as that cheery, bright-eyed children's television host Patty on CBC. She's a mom of two beautiful girls and wife to actor Michael Kinney. We had the wonderful opportunity to chat with Patty about what it's like to be a mom, TV celebrity to kids, and about the upcoming Kids' CBC … [Read more...]
words for wednesday-paddle your own canoe
I have long loved this phrase. It means what you know it does- be strong, be independent, follow your own path, be yourself. We started art camp with the question "what is your most cherished trait?" Mine is two because choosing is hard and, well, it's my game, so I make the rules- my … [Read more...]
