Every year I love when she makes stuff for Valentine’s Day and Mother’s Day it’s something I look forward to receiving. This year Keera decided to give me my Valentine early, because she’s off with Zaden to spend…

Mom can’t be my only identity.
“Who am I?” I’ve been asking myself this question a lot lately, and all I seem to come up with is “a mom”. You see I’ve always known since I was little that I wanted to be a mom, it’s something I’ve never had a doubt about. It’s the reason I planned on having my…
Grocery night-shift is like “Elves and the Shoemaker”.
I got myself a new job September 11th, 2015, and even though I decided I won’t be disclosing which company I work for I’ve got several things to say. This job is something totally new to me, even though in the past I’ve been a cashier at a grocery store. This job is at night…
Let’s get this mystery solved.
Today yet again Zaden had one of his mysterious episodes… It happens suddenly and you never know when it’s going to happen. It all started when he turned two years old, and it’s been an off and on thing ever since. He turns ghost white pale, says he’s cold and gets really tired in a…
Waffle maker quesadillas.
A couple of years ago I got a waffle maker for Christmas, Christmas 2014 to be exact. Since than I’ve only used it once and it’s been sadly sitting on my counter collecting dust. Even though I am a big fan of waffles, I never prioritized making them. It really comes down to the fact…

I’m not a big fan of giving parenting advice, most of the time anyway but I will share this…It’s a bad idea to book an eye appointment for two of your kids, plus yourself in one trip. If you are looking for something more insane to do, doing exactly like that but tagging along all…

A typical parent Sunday.
Today was a typical parent Sunday, Emilee and I cuddled in bed until around 11am. Then we got up and got ready for the day, I spent a couple of hours paying bills {Gas, water, electricity}. After I finished that, we head out to Costco to do some light grocery shopping and some browsing. We…
It’s been months, but there finally gone!
It’s been a long four days RECAP four days ago: I was washing clothes, I turned on the washing machine; and added laundry soap like I usually do. I put my clothes in then proceeded to fold the clothes from the dryer {for the record this folding laundry as I wash it isn’t routine, putting…
Last declutter project of 2015.
Well it’s been a pretty good year, 2015 has definitely had a lot of ups and downs for our family. I would be lying if I said there wasn’t more downs then ups. Still I am very thankful because this year has really helped me grow as a person. I want to start off 2016…
