Happy March Break. Hopefully you’re not stuck at Happy March Break. Hopefully you’re not stuck at home like us and can enjoy the week off. I had the pleasure of speaking about family activities on @nowtrendingshow on @cjad800 Read all my picks on the blog. Link in bio.
Yesterday was by far the hardest day of our year-l Yesterday was by far the hardest day of our year-long Covid journey with multiple classes in our school closing. I let my kids use their devices too much, sometimes they eat cookies for breakfast, my consistency in parenting isn’t always the best. Until it really matters. I have said No so many times this year. No play dates. No birthday parties. No garage hangouts. Just No. Because it’s not worth taking a chance. While we’re still locked up at home, waiting, my consistency makes me feel a tiny bit safer in this unpredictable situation. My consistency has hopefully taught my kids that following the rules is more important than ever. My consistency will hopefully protect my family. My consistency has made me proud of my title of mom. Stay safe everyone. And stay home, especially this March break.
Covid puppy. One year later. And to think I was wo Covid puppy. One year later. And to think I was worried about having to leave him and go back to the office when he was just 3 months old. He’s currently still my at-home office mate. He’s definitely provided more than a bit of sunshine during this year at home. #twixthedog #wirehaireddachshund

Seriously. 📐 Convex. Concave. Parallelogram. I Seriously. 📐 Convex. Concave. Parallelogram. I can honestly say that after helping two kids with geometry, I know they’ll never need to use this in their life. Or will they?! Anyone use these concepts in their work?
A new month with no where to go so might as well f A new month with no where to go so might as well find some creative things to do! ✂️ 🎨 🖍 I’ve rounded up my top 5 art activities for kids that can be delivered to your door this month. Link in bio.
These two have gotten closer through lockdown, eve These two have gotten closer through lockdown, even with a 4 year age difference. Science experiments, fort building, movies and DogMan coloring tutorials are just some of their favourite activities. Don’t get me wrong, they definitely have their moments but without play dates with friends they are happy to have each other. Has lockdown brought your kids together or is the fighting intense in your house?
“When I was a kid I’d go skiing in -20 without “When I was a kid I’d go skiing in -20 without hand warmers.” 🎿 Can’t believe I’m officially making “when I was younger” statements but these kids definitely don’t have the same tough skin that I grew up with. 🤦🏻‍♀️ It’s currently -18 with the wind chill up north and getting lots of resistance over here. ❄️ Who is heading out on the slopes today? ⛷
Anyone else feel like this was the longest week ev Anyone else feel like this was the longest week ever? ❤️ if I’m not alone. Can someone please make the news a bit brighter? Especially here in Quebec where cases are rising, kids are in school and the government thinks they know how to dose vaccines better than scientists. 💉
This is where you’re going to find us on Saturda This is where you’re going to find us on Saturdays 🎿 With ski school cancelled @sommet_morin_heights and across the province, we’ve been given the option to keep our day-of passes. Funny thing is, we’ve been teaching our kids how to ski since day 1 and finally decided this was the year for some structured lessons. My husband used to be an instructor and I seem to have a bizarre amount of patience on the magic carpet. So I guess we’re back where we started this year. Now if it would only just snow... ❄️
