It’s been a lovely night spending time with our newest edition - Caleb James - born at 1:20pm on November 7th - 9lbs 11oz & 56cm ❤️ We are both doing well and are excited to go home, hopefully later today! 🤞 -

Kayden and Emily are both super excited to meet him. They aren’t allowed in the hospital because Southern Alberta is currently in the middle of a whooping cough outbreak. So we will have to get all the cute first sibling pictures once we are home. -

Even as I sit here writing this caption I am still contemplating whether I should post this or not. Do I really want the world to see me sitting here in my pyjamas with my multiple chins? Am I comfortable with the fact that I look more like Jabba the Hutt from StarWars than the person I normally look like in photos? As you can see, I’m feeling very self conscious about this picture, but my hope is that it really helps get across the point I’m about to try make. -

Let them take your picture! Even if you’re looking your worst. Even if you’re in your pyjamas. Even if your double chin is showing because the camera isn’t at the perfect angle. LET THEM TAKE THE PICTURES!
You’re family isn’t judging all the things you are insecure about. They don’t care that your hair isn’t done. They don’t care that you’re not in your best clothing or that you’re not wearing any makeup. They just want to capture a memory with one of their favourite people! They just want to have a picture of mom, so let them have it! Who knows, one day when you’re finally at a place where you’re comfortable with yourself you may even be happy that there’s pictures of you during the times you thought you were at your worst. -

Moms: I know it can be hard to be easier on yourself. Especially in a world where people are posting the best version of themselves online and we rarely share anything “real” anymore. It can be hard to accept the day to day normal as something beautiful when the entire world seems to be photoshopped and posed. I’d like you to know, the real day to day life is what is beautiful! -

Happy Halloween Everyone!🎃👻 but HAPPY BIRTHDAY 🥳 to my first baby, who happens to be much bigger than a baby these days! I can’t believe that he’s already nine! NINE YEARS OLD! -

Kayden really wanted this costume when we seen it at the second hand store. It’s Pikachu. Which is awesome except for the fact that it was missing the tail and the hat! That didn’t seem to stop him from wanting it though. Apparently he had great faith in my crafting skills because he trusted me to make the ears and the tail. It didn’t turn out too bad and he’s happy with it, but maybe next year we can try for a whole costume?! Luckily I found Emily’s whole LEGO Knight costume at the dollar store for only a few bucks! Can’t go wrong with that! -

This girl of ours seriously loves her busy bins. We personally love playdough, moon dough, kinetic sand, play dirt, and orbeezs! -

I strongly suggest that if you have a child who is always wanting activities to do that you create some busy bins or busy bags that they can get to themselves! It’s a life saver because I don’t always have to find her something to do. -

QUESTION TIME⁉️ What’s your child’s favourite thing to play with? -

I’m looking for gift ideas for Christmas. I know it’s early and I’m pretty sure that mostly we will just ask for/ get experiences for the kids, but sometimes it’s good to have some ideas on hand for those who don’t like to gift experiences. -

I love when our children get to do things with their great grandparents! They get to learn things they probably wouldn’t otherwise learn and hear stories they probably wouldn’t ever hear. 💕
