A baby has a special way of bringing joy to every single day
I think one of the things that bothers me the most about the whole vaccine debate (and most other issues out there for that matter) is all the fear mongering that goes on on both sides of the issue. If you don’t vaccinate, your kids could get sick and die, but if you do, they [...]

So I really love BC. I love that we get flowers coming up in February, while Calgary is still -40. I love being near the ocean and that there are so many forests. I can’t wait until Meredith is just a little older and I can take her out to the beaches on the west [...]

There have been a few days lately that I wonder if Meredith will be out of diapers any time soon. Other days I think it could be any time.
For one thing, she has been dry through the night a lot recently. She rarely wants to be pottied in the middle of the night, but she [...]

My friend Katey shared this recipe with me. It’s originally here at allrecipes.com. She made some alterations to it, and then I made a few more. These are sooo good. My husband ate most of the peanut butter this morning (where can I get a psychic model?), so I ended up halving the recipe. (Probably [...]

People (including myself) seem to have the habit of being very critical of pretty much everything anyone besides themselves does. This can be as small as “How could she wear that, my GAWD!”, but it can also be regarding much more important subjects in life itself (not that fashion isn’t important…).
As a general rule, I [...]

I was tired and uninspired today, so I had decided to just copy from a post I made elsewhere about animal vaccinations. Then I started writing an intro and before I knew it had typed out part of a post about vaccines that I’ve been thinking of writing anyway. Then Meredith woke up and it [...]

Kris and I have spent the past few days decluttering and moving rooms around. It’s a great feeling to watch our boxes and piles of stuff slowly diminish. I have a whole pile of stuff to post on FreeCycle or Craig’s List, and a huge bag of clothes to consign or donate. It feels good [...]

I remember Deet growing up. For those who don’t know, Deet is the most common ingredient found in most commercial insect repellents, and is known to be highly toxic. My parents used to caution us to use only tiny amounts, especially my dad who is an environmentalist and was quite concerned about its use.
Here is [...]

Before I get started, Lindsay was a guest blogger at Alice In Average-Land, a blog written by her sister. I suggest you all check it out as she’s a very talented writer and her posts are always fun to read.
When you read news articles/editorials in the paper (or more and more for me at least [...]
