This is it, over 5 years in the making, I have reached my 1000th blog post! I thought about having a huge party, getting drunk, and selling my blogging soul but opted out at the last minute. I know, I can be such a lame-o sometimes! Instead I did a little research on what other [...]

Alright, I’m constantly losing track. I have to check a silly app on my phone to figure out how far along I am in this pregnancy. Clearly, a third pregnancy symptom. Even with Carys I could remember the week number, perhaps not the day, but at least part of the time scale. This time, I [...]

Well, the big game of the year is undoubtedly over now. The Canucks did not pull of the miracle that Canadians were hoping for. Needless to say, the atmosphere at our house immediately after the game was pretty solemn followed by a day of exhaustion and disappointment. Thankfully we didn’t trash our house in a [...]

Yay, I’m over half way through baking baby #3. It’s become very clear to others now that I’m not just working on my beer gut; I’ve had at least two people directly ask me about the baby, and several people ask indirectly. The last week and a half has been the best so far. I’ve [...]

Well it’s finally over. Nearly two and a half months of waiting and our brand new vehicle is now living in our driveway.  I know, I know! We probably didn’t tell you (don’t worry less than a handful of people actually knew) that we had taken on a new adventure in French consumerism. It all [...]

Today is a special day for me and this blog. It’s the fifth anniversary since I published my first post. It was nothing miraculous, or insightful and I’m rather embarrassed to even draw it out of the depths of the archives. The amazing thing for me is how much things have changed since I wrote [...]

Since I didn’t get many pictures during the big events of Christmas this year, I’m making it up with lots of fun pictures during the quiet times. We went out for a quick walk yesterday and I got some shots of the sunset, and of Dan and Jude skating on a frozen pond. Perhaps you’ve [...]

I miss Daniel

This week, Daniel went to Amsterdam for a conference. We opted out of joining him since it was going to be a busy month with unpacking and getting settled into the house. Of course, as a result I’m left at home with the two munchkins. I love my kids! They are wonderful, happy, boisterous, energetic, [...]
