My Non-Identical Identical Twins – Twiniversity

I’m a member of my local twins group and it’s fantastic for most twin related needs, except for what it’s like to have one twin develop at a typical rate and the other to be behind. My NICU and preemie groups are mostly full of singleton parents, and the twins that are parts of those […]

Calling all firemen!

I cannot believe my little bear is three! What a special birthday this was,  his first really being aware of what a birthday actually is. Per his request, we celebrated with a firetruck party! While the party won’t make any BuzzFeed lists, I think the theme was present from the firetruck balloons to the favours, […]

Happy Birthday, Baby Boy!!

Exactly three years ago, only one day past his due date, I was experiencing contractions every minute and could not sit or lie down. By 10 PM, my water burst everywhere and after being run dramatically down the hospital corridor to a labour and delivery room, Braeden entered the world and made me a mama. […]

Women who drop their kids off at school in these fabulous outfits with all locally sourced organic lunches who breeze around town in amazing four inch heels and have some super chic job that they love and excel at before coming home and making an amazing,  […]

We’re 13 months old!

Thirteen months! Next month the girls will be at their corrected one year, which is hard to believe though they seem to change every day. Raegan is 18 pounds and 28 inches long and has six teeth (the top front four and bottom two) and is getting more. Those canines are definitely getting ready to […]

He’s not a baby anymore

On Sunday, I took Braeden to a birthday party. We’ve probably been to forty or so before,  but this one was extra special. The reason?  This is Buds’ friend from school, in other words, a friend he made all on his own, not one of my friends’ kids. It’s amazing to see him grow up […]
