MINI MIOCHE romper AND dress – you choose from the color options for both the dress and romper. (organic, made in Canada and both perfect for every single day wear!). $78 value.

CHILDHOODS hoodie AND knot clips – you choose the hoodie color and the clip color. (goes with everything in thier closet hoodie and wear everyday clips). $45 value.

Tuesday after a long weekend is like all the Monday’s from one month, combined. Three days of letting the chores and errands go, three days of just enjoying my people – well 3.25 since Chris had to work on Saturday. This morning was rough, sad and messy – you know the drill.

Sunday we attended the coolest art birthday party for one of our favorite little friends, my Instagram holds the only evidence of this awesome day. Yesterday the kids asked if we could go look at big boats, so down by the lake we went. After a long and beautiful day along the water, watching street performers, playing in the sand, lot’s of walking and trying to keep smiles on two grumpy kiddos faces (I swear it doesn’t look like it, but they were grump and grumpier all day) – we accidentally chose the path back to the subway that put the Steam Whistle Brewery right in front of us. So basically the day, and the entire May long weekend was pretty awesome. Currently I’m scrambling to fold mount laundry, and yawn as I try to get all my ducks in a row for a special little lady’s birthday later this week.

freinds1 RICH MOMENTS
freinds2 RICH MOMENTS

And because I didn’t really bring my camera out, my favorite “behind the scenes, outtake, photo you’ve probably already seen if you follow me on Instagram” moment…

freinds3 RICH MOMENTS

Last week one of my most favorite humans on earth (actually two, that sweet little red headed beauty is near the top of my favorite little people list) had a layover, a blip of a moment in our city. It’s crazy how even a blip of a moment with amazing people like my beautiful friend Ashleigh, can feel so full and complete. There is no small talk we just jump right into the real stuff like there has been zero time between the last time I saw her (even though really it’s been a year). Of course a small visit with someone you love so dearly isn’t actually enough, but time with favorite people can be so rich that even a blip can feel so full.

It’s a little bit funny (did Elton John just pop in your head?) how spending any amount of time with amazing friends and family quickly reminds me how grateful I am to have such an amazing list of favorite people in my life – and also how sad it is that most of them live way too far away. Simple times filled with love and friendship, force my head to shake a little. They remind me that all the worries I have about things and stuff are mostly just silly (mostly), it’s the people, those little blips of moments with my favorite people that make life so rich and complete. Now if only someone would get on creating a quicker or cheaper way to travel, we could fill our days with so many more rich moments.

napper THE EVERYDAY | NAPS

enjoying those EVERYDAY moments : 19/52 – 4.5 years old and still naps like a champ.

Yesterday my nap champ, woke up from his nap only to fall asleep for a second nap on the couch. The after nap, nap is not an everyday thing. It’s much more of a once in a lifetime thing. He looked so tiny and so absolutely adorable I had to capture the moment, it took some stealthy jedi moves to mask the loud shutter (that thing is loud when everything else is silent, or at least my camera is).

It’s been a while since I shared some of those moments I never want to forget, not that there hasn’t been a ton of them – I just sorta kinda forgot. As always these moments are all captured with my iPhone.

Last week the kids had their first dental appointment, I know a little late for a 4.5 year old but better late then never! No cavities were found, only clean white teeth (a bit of a relief) and they both sat like champs for the dentist (I was expecting tears or fears). We also found out that King has extra special teeth, an extra 2 special teeth to be exact – most kids have 10 teeth on top and 10 teeth on the bottom. King (maybe it’s because he has King teeth to match his name) has 12 teeth on top! Really this means nothing in terms of super powers, it just means he needs to brush 2 extra teeth and that he will forever perplex dentists and hygienists alike (or at least until he gets his adult teeth). We celebrated an amazing first visit with burgers partially because it was in the middle of zero personal space (rush hour) traffic and I wanted to wait a bit before hitting the subway. And King decided to celebrate his new dentist toys and cinnamon breath with some random but amazing street yoga/gymnastics.

Token mom photo, me trying to wipe dryed hot chocolate off my boys face and him extremely unimpressed and probably super annoyed.

My Mother’s Day was fantastic, we stayed in our PJ’s for over half the day and my family wouldn’t let me lift a finger. Then we went for a walk realized, it was freezing cold out, chugged some hot chocolate to warm up then devoured sushi to end the perfect low key day. I love my family, and I and beyond blessed to hold this Mom title.

The only thing my day was truly missing, was one on one time with my Mom – she lives about 4000 km away and so our “one on one time” came in the form of a skype date. I’m never really sure how to lead into a post filled with actual emotions (since I am more of a visual person), I usually stumble a bit until I can get to that part my brain won’t stop thinking about… READ THE FULL POST
