Quarantine birthdays. 🎂 🎁 🎈 Turns out ki Quarantine birthdays. 🎂 🎁 🎈 Turns out kids don’t need all the bells and whistles to have an amazing day. Leo’s birthday was two weeks ago and messages of love from family and friends and a few surprises made him so happy. Simple pleasures, like when we were kids... Just like these lawn signs from @flamingoparty.mtl 🦩 I remember waking up to a lawn full of flamingos when I was a kid. The look of sheer joy on Leo’s face when he saw his superheroes, was priceless! 🦸🏻‍♂️ Business is obviously booming for this local company and they continue to get creative with new designs for all occasions (not just for kids!) #gifted

Meet Twix. He’s a wire haired daschund and the n Meet Twix. He’s a wire haired daschund and the newest member of our family. For the past 1.5 years since we lost Norman, our house has been quiet. Not that kind of quiet with three kids around but the kind of quiet that a dog owner feels when their pup isn’t around. Someone to greet you at the door, someone to get you outside everyday to know what’s happening in the neighborhood, someone to snuggle with. I have been on a mission to find a rescue since September. But I failed. Rescues generally don’t like adopting to families with young children and went covid hit, the shelters were empty (a good thing!) So when we learned Leo wouldn’t be going back to daycare until late June (at the earliest) we knew it was puppy time. With a lot of research, some luck and a 4-hour road trip, Twix is now home.
