Yesterday was an interesting day for baby and myself, I swear this kid grew over night! I have read that around the 33rd week or so the baby’s movements really [...]

Finally the day arrived for our first perinatal class. Last weekend we jumped in the car and headed to Squamish for our first real look into what is about to come. We have both been so busy that neither of us have had much time to mentally prepare for the birth, so it would seem [...]

Work will be coming to an end soon, prenatal classes are next weekend, life insurance has been bought, wills are being written…it’s amazing what can be accomplished when expecting your first child.

Well it has been much too long since I last wrote having been completely consumed by the events that have taken place here in Whistler over the last few weeks. The Vancouver 2010 Winter Olympics came on like a wild storm and as quickly as it came into town, it suddenly vanished like a beautiful [...]

I have to say that with being pregnant comes new reason to shop for the best deals. One day you have everything you need and then the next you need to buy a million things, so much that it becomes extremely over whelming.
Every time I make a trip to the city to my new favourite [...]

The one thing both my husband and I agreed on was to invest in a good stroller, one that would allow me to take walks on trails and still be able to maneuver easily in public spaces. We needed something durable, functional and practical and through our research we decided on the Baby Jogger City [...]

Well it certainly took longer than desired but I am very excited to say that I can finally feel M.J. now! Looking back at it, I had been feeling movement here and there but I couldn’t determine whether it was the baby or simply gas!

Christmas has always been my favourite time of year, all the great food, parties, desserts the giving and of course the receiving make for such an exciting time of year.
