Yay! We had a week of junky colds/respiratory illness and then a week of stomach virus in the family, but we are finally better. I’m excited for a relaxing weekend to recharge and work on some home projects!

I had a different post planned for today about organic clothing, but this week has just been one of those weeks if you know what I mean… so that post will be coming next week and in the meantime, a chatty life update :)… Read More »

I’ve come around to the fact that normal life with little kids is just always busy. When you’re little, it feels like the days, months and years pass slowly. But when you’re a mom, you blink and it’s Friday once again, even though Friday feels like yesterday. You only just get into your daily routine for the academic year, and then the end of the year is on the horizon and things change all over again.

Crazier yet is with five people in our family–and my parents, brother and family nearby–it feels like someone is ALWAYS celebrating a birthday. Eric’s was last week, little A’s is next week (2!), my brother and mom’s birthdays are in March and so on.

Happy Friday! This week felt looong… serious TGIF vibes today! Little e is starting skating lessons tomorrow and we have an otherwise cozy, homey weekend planned with yummy breakfasts, healthy baking and some work projects for both of us.

I haven’t written a Life Lately post in ages so let’s catch up, shall we? 🙂

We’ve been super busy lately (but I guess that’s par for the course with three little kids) and whilst I love the holiday season, I’m actually looking forward to things slowing down in January too! A nice little reprieve from the busyness of summer and the hustle and bustle of fall/winter holidays.

I said to Eric yesterday, I feel like I’m usually just treading water trying to keep on top of everything–and then the holiday season just pushes me past that limit and I’m forever playing catch-up. It won’t always be this way, especially as e/A/K get older. But it’s definitely a tough balance to find between all of the Christmas prep/events, being present in the moment and still trying to keep everyday life running smoothly!… Read More »

Although it didn’t really feel like it… It rained, snowed and has been in the 30s/40s and otherwise cloudy all week.

Tbh this will probably be a very short post as this mom is very short on energy and motivation at the moment–I woke up with a splitting headache after being awake for an hour overnight. I think it’s time to resurrect my morning espresso habit. TGIF!… Read More »
