Welcome to another instalment of Tattoo Tuesday. The past 2 years have presented us with some of our most challenging issues of our lives. The most common response I get from people is, “I don’t know how you’re managing all this stress.” The answer is always the same, “I’m just living one minute at a… Continue reading Tattoo Tuesday – My Life Motto

Top 5 Ways To Ruin Mother’s Day
Mother’s day is less than 2 weeks away and this year Mother’s day also happens to fall on my birthday. Yay me.

Baby Needs A New Pair Of Shoes
In the interest of purging and trying to create a simpler life with less “stuff” tying me down, I realized that my children have an obscene amount of shoes. In fact I pulled them all out and found that after 3 boxes of shoes in storage they have over 100 pairs of shoes between 4… Continue reading Baby Needs A New Pair Of Shoes
How To NOT Win The Lottery
At least once a week I like to fantasize about winning the lottery. A day dreamy moment of escapism from the laundry list of things on my to-do list. Oh what a blissful life I live with 30 million in the bank. I promise I won’t forget the little people. But if you want to… Continue reading How To NOT Win The Lottery

Could you stop yelling at your kids for 1 day? Could you stop yelling at your kids for 1 hour? Most of us would answer, heeeeeeeeeeeeeelllllll NO! So, I’m just going to lay it out for y’all, I yell. A LOT! I’m not proud to say it but most days it’s the only thing I… Continue reading I Shut Up

Life Is Good #97
My little babies turned 5 in March! I can’t believe how fast time is flying by. Although the birthday party was a success and fun was had by all, thanks to Petland and Nana’s spectacular cakes; later that evening we were rushing Hilary to the Children’s Hospital via 911 and an ambulance. Long story short,… Continue reading Life Is Good #97
I’m In The Picture (week 9)
I know it’s been a while since I posted a pic with me in it. Let’s just say, I’ve been busy and leave it at that. So this is a picture of Abby and I at her 5th birthday party.

Moving Sucks
That’s really all there is to it. Moving sucks. We lived in our last house for over 9 years. We bought it and moved in 2 months before I gave birth to our first child. We had 3 more babies living in that house. We had summers and Christmases, BBQ’s and birthdays in that house.… Continue reading Moving Sucks
The Art Of Self Doubt: A Lesson From BlogWest
When I showed up at BlogWest in Edmonton on March 7, 2013 I didn’t expect to leave the 3 day conference feeling like a different person but I did. As soon as Julie from 3 Chickens and a Boat got into my car on the first night, I could tell that she was… Continue reading The Art Of Self Doubt: A Lesson From BlogWest
