But what if this year we didn’t think big? What if this year we thought small?? I’m not talking about Chihuahua small, I’m talking pocket sized puppy small. I’m talking smallest thing you can possibly think of small. Even if to you it seems like nothing. Even if you have such massive goals for the […]
Who doesn’t love a warm bowl of oatmeal in the morning? Unless you’re trying to get kids out the door, lunches packed and organized and maybe throw a brush through your hair! Some mornings I get to eat breakfast with my family, sometimes I’m on the run. These oatmeal cups are perfect for busy parents […]
Mamas, let’s be real. French toast is the best and it makes for such an amazing start to the morning! The best part of this recipe is that it starts with basic ingredients- until you add in all of your favourite toppings! Ingredients: 1 loaf of 1-2 day old bread (you can use challah, white […]

The feelings of“I should really……X,Y,Z””“Why can’t I just…X,Y,Z”“Why does everyone else seem to be able to…X,Y,Z”And my personal variety as the twin mom that I am “I can’t do X,Y,Z for one and not the […]

Mamas – let me tell you…..it has been a WEEK! This last little bit in our household has involved a lot of transitions and quite a busy time for all of us. To top it off, my little guy had a two and a half hour doctors appointment this week. TWO AND A HALF HOURS! Now, […]
A lot of parents I work with don’t necessarily want to be in my office. Don’t get me wrong it’s not because I’m not super fun, -trust me I’m really entertaining!
