11 Weeks

It has been 11 weeks since I have been here.  Eleven weeks since I have complained, bitched, relished, laughed, joked or told anyone what the heck is going on in Pinto Bean land.  In 11 weeks we have said so much, done so much and grown so much I don’t even know where to start [...]

My Sanctuary

Everyone has that special place where they can go and just be.  You can arrive at your sanctuary knowing that whatever the day(s) bring you’ll be able to handle it because you are in your safe place.  You are somewhere where everyone knows you, the real YOU. You can laugh, cry, scream or just sit [.

Time

It’s been far too long since I’ve been here. Far too long that I’ve neglected what has been a saviour to me. I began coming here to help me find me and I’m well on my way in that search and rescue mission but feel that there is still a missing person out there. I’ve [...]

Exhibitionist & A Vampire

This morning on my way to work our nanny calls me laughing hysterically.  I guess little Miss Sofie was as naked as a jaybird.  Sometime in the night this little devil angel removed her sleep sack, onesie & diaper.  Also, sometime during the night she peed in her bed.  EVERYWHERE! All things conside

SHHHH

Sunday morning we woke up to an eerily quiet house.  There was no crying, babbling, screaming or pitter patter of little feet at our abode.  For the first time in 16 months T and I were in our own home together.  ALONE!  I’ve been alone in the house and T has been alone in the [...]

House Rules

We recently went to a BBQ organized by Durham Parents of Multiples and I was amazed by how having just a few families there  the numbers quickly add up when we are all parents of multiples. There was a couple there with their 3 month old twins (oh they were so cute and little). I asked them [...]

Nap Time

The Beans have two naps a day right now and at almost 16 months I would think it’s time to change this to one nap a day.  With all this sleep interrupting the day it’s hard to plan things, do things and get out of the house for longer than an hour.  The Beans sleep [...]

Think I can pay for their university education with these?

Yes, I am bragging here but these two are THE CUTEST kids around.  Even though one of them had us up at 2am last night and I seriously wanted to throw him out with the bath water, their cuteness overrides their pain in the assness! Filed under: Awesomeness, Beanism

So this is what it’s like

This week in the concrete jungle (and I mean that literally, just look at pictures of the 3m high fence in downtown Toronto), T and I have mixed it up a bit.  T is working from home this week and I’m coming downtown for work.  That means that T is home when I get home, [...]

Good Luck

I like to enter contests.  I like free stuff (really, who wouldn’t).  I like to read product reviews and I like to give other people my opinion on stuff.  My friend was asking me the other day what I have won by entering contests.  Well here is the list. 1. A Sleep Sack from Wee [...]
