I’ve been updating some of my blog posts this year (2021), and I stumbled upon this one… and you know what I miss are these days? It was so easy to take two kids out when they were little. Now I have an almost 5 year old and a 6 year old, and I can […]
Les Confections Lili Diapers Review
This past couple of months, I have been truly amazed by the tiny little cloth diaper companies across North America that I’m learning more about each day. Whether it’s from brands popping in my Instagram DM’s or joining me on the Cloth Diaper Podcast, there are so many passionate people out there trying to make […]
Bedtime makes me an Angry Mom.
It’s hard to be a mama to two fierce toddlers. Some days are not easy. I wrote this one night after a very long night trying to put the kids to bed. It’s not infrequent for bedtime rituals and routines to make me feel this way, or motherhood in general. Learn how I try to cope […]
Mastering the Art of Hiking with Toddlers
I’ve spent the summer determined to explore and adventure with my children. Staying inside makes me a little crazy, and my backyard is nothing to get excited about. The afternoon sun makes it unbearable back there, and the apple trees I planted have a few more years before they provide us with shade. Off we […]
Yes. I’m THAT Mom Nursing & Scrolling on my phone.
I’m THAT mom. You’ll find me at the mall, at the playground, or at home breastfeeding my baby and scrolling on my phone. I can’t remember the last time I purposefully breastfed without scrolling. Maybe a one-off here and there, someone fell and bonked their head, or my phone was lost under a couch cushion. There […]
Solo Mama: Managing Toddler & Baby Bedtime
How does one person manage to put a baby and toddler to bed? They don’t. Managing bedtime with two kids by yourself is one of the most challenging and dreadful parts of my job as a mom. However, because of my husband’s unpredictable life schedule, I’m usually the solo bedtime mama. If we aren’t friends already or […]
5 Reasons the Playground is the Best in Winter
I’ll admit to being a little bit of a winter scrouge. Coming off the beautiful days of Fall, into the bitter days of winter is a blast in the face and every year I’m #lessthanimpressed with the change of seasons. But come January, winter doesn’t feel so miserable and the countdown to Spring is much to […]
Life Lessons from 2 in Cloth Diapers
Let’s not sugar coat the experience, having 2 in cloth diapers is exhausting. I just rinsed my diapers for the third time this week because I left them in the washer (yet) AGAIN. Parenting two children is exhausting, diapers or not. The laundry from tiny people piles up quick, and so do the diapers. Curious […]
Barkerville Historic Site with 2 under 2
Taking young children to a historic site is always a gamble. Sometimes it plays out, and sometimes it’s a nightmare. It’s hard to tell, and while you can often gage your children temperament before heading out on the road, it’s not unusual for their behaviour to change wildly while at the historic site. I’m not […]
Cloth Diapering 2 on the Go with Planet Wise Wet/Dry Bag
Leaving the house with 2 babies is intimidating and overwhelming. With 2 babies there is twice the chaos, and twice the diapers. However, just because your leaving the house doesn’t mean you need to leave the cloth diapers behind. This post is not directly sponsored. I did receive the Planet Wise wet/dry bag in exchange […]
