Clean socks are a privilege, not a right
Well 2015 has been interesting so far. One week into what was supposed to be all about getting back into a routine, with school and all, turned into a LOT of well….. First day of school ended with Adam telling me that he was not feeling well at all. He was clammy and said his […]
The best part of doing product reviews, is being introduced to companies that I wasn’t familiar with before and that will be added to the list of products that the Crunchy family now uses. Boiron was a name I knew as I had used Camilia to help with teething when the kids were small, but I […]
Even the most tech-savvy parents can feel the rug pulling from under us as our kids talk 10 to the dozen about a new YouTube cartoon they’re all into or how to find cheats in their favourite game by doing something gross to zombies.

So have bankrupted myself after financing just TWO birthday parties for the Children Crunch. It is going to suck when I really have to work at Tara’s…hers is in 17 days…very bad planning on my part right there! Husband was horrified at the costs of the birthday PLACES and so home was the place..but […]
