The day is almost here. I CANNOT believe it! I feel like we just found out we're having a baby, while at the same time this past week I've started to feel huge, and like I've been pregnant forever! My third trimester has been pretty similar to the second, with a few more aches and [...]
I did it! My husband and I left our daughter at home and went on vacation, but getting me there definitely wasn't easy! As mamas I think we can all agree that leaving your children to go on vacation is tough. First off, you have to prep almost as much as you would if they [...]
This next recipe from the newlywed cookbook series is my aunt and uncle's famous simple pancake recipe. I grew up in a pretty traditional Eastern European household, so pancakes weren't something we typically had for breakfast [eggs, veggies and cold cuts were more our style]. I actually don't think I tried pancakes until I started [...]
I’ve teamed up with Pink Blush Maternity to bring you this blog post on my fav piece of clothing during pregnancy - the kimono! Typically, while not pregnant, I like to wear loose fitting clothing, however when I’m pregnant I like to wear tighter fitting clothes the second there is any sign of a bump! [...]
This winter has been LONG! It's no surprise that many of you are heading down south for some sun and sand. After my recent trip to the Bahamas I got a ton of questions about what I packed, so I put together a list of some of my favourite resort ready vacation items to help [...]
If you're craving something healthy, fresh and simple the two salad recipes below are for you. Both the tomato and cucumber salad are my mother-in-laws go-to's for just about every dinner, and they're my favourite! They're perfect for an easy meal at home, or as a side when hosting a dinner party, but the best [...]
It's Family Day long weekend, and what better way to spend time with family than indulging in a home cooked meal. From what I hear, Shepard's Pie is a family favourite for many, however the first time I actually tried it was when I made this recipe! Verdict: It's SO good, and easy to make [...]
Valentine's Day is almost here! After a looooong and cold January, it's a nice to have something cute and sweet to celebrate, and what's better than celebrating your love for someone! Personally I really enjoy giving gifts, and Valentine's Day is no exception. Typically my husband and I exchange something small, or we pass on [...]
This chocolate strawberry cupcake recipe is my besties - it's super cute and delicious! They're not too sweet either, which I love. Prior to having boys to spend our Valentine's Day with, we would have a girls night, make dinner and bake these exact cupcakes. These are perfect for Valentine's Day, but let's be real, [...]
Valentine's Day is all about L O V E. For some of us that means spending it with your significant other, while for others it's showering your kids, parents, family or friends with some heart shaped confetti. While I love a fun night out, my favourite thing to do on Valentine's Day is stay home [...]
