A Superb Day; Lost in the Woods

Knarf is always going on about how great the hiking is along the trails he and Zack frequent. I’ve tried to make time to go with him, but it has just never panned out for whatever reason.

Yesterday, I finally got all my ducks in a row, and bullied no, coerced managed to get the Hubby [...]

That Wascally Wabbit!

We had our obligatory visit from the Easter Bunny last night, and I thought I’d share a few snaps taken of the kids – mostly Wee One, because The Teen kept shrieking “Don’t take my picture!” like her bed head was anything other than the norm these days. These things must be documented for posterity, [...]

A sign of spring…

What a beautiful weekend! The snow is melting, the sun is shining, and all is right with the world.

Wee One was tickled to be outside with just a light jacket, and able to swing in the sunshine. (We’re also tickled that her two bottom teeth are finally coming in!)

Please, Mother Nature… let it stay! [...]

Dear Wee One

Remember when, a few days ago, I told you to clean up your toys? I was pretty nice about it, right? Even though the piles/unholy amount of brightly coloured plastic was beyond ridiculous?

And remember when I told you the same thing a couple days later, and I was still pretty nice, but getting that expression [...]

A cast of players…

I’ve been asked a lot recently about who the folks I talk about on my blog actually are. I’m sure some of you wonder what the heck I’m up to sometimes, too.

It can get a bit tedious (for you as well as me) to explain relationships every time I mention someone, so to that end, [...]

Stuff and Such

Yesterday was a long, long day.

Wee One and I arrived at ShaMoo’s for babysitting duty in the early AM, because her youngest son was due at Toronto’s Sick Kids hospital for a serious procedure that morning, and I offered to stay with Princess Little Bit. I won’t go in to the whole thing – [...]

Wee One is a ROCK STAR!

Wee One is my quiet, introspective child. Truth be told, she has a shyness issue, and new people and situations scare the bejeebers out of her. We’re working on it, and she has come a long way since last year.

But at home where it’s safe… my quiet child becomes a ROCK STAR!

A couple [...]

Snake in the Grass

I’ve been quiet this week due to my father being in the hospital with chest pains. He’s home now, and we’re waiting on some tests to come back and a visit to his cardiologist next week. In all likelihood, he has a blocked artery, and will need either an angiogram/stents, or – and I really hope [...]

I hate hospitals

Wee one had me rushing her to the hospital last night at 11pm, complaining of pain in her nether regions. I was hoping she would fall asleep and I could take her to our regular (female) doctor this morning, but she slept for a total of 30 minutes and woke up screaming, which is extremely unlike [...]

Mosaic Monday

Hubby looks a little grumpy, but he was just very engrossed in whatever the movie was (I tuned it out) and I think maybe I was annoying him a little with my photo session. Oh well, he kept his big boy pants on and didn’t say anything ;)

I have been on colour-overload the last week, so [...]

A quiet moment

Having a lazy Sunday afternoon…

Wee One and her Daddy snuggled up to watch a movie earlier, and Wee One had an unexpected nap. I took the opportunity to snap a few pictures.

The Teen came home yesterday, to tears and hugs. The most surprising welcome of all was from Wee One, who burst into tears when [...]
