Murphy's Law.... again...

After telling ALL the boys in the house that I was planning to wash the kitchen floors and that they should get their breakfasts before I start, absolutely NO ONE was interested in eating. The SECOND I finish washing the floor- and, of course it is still wet- EVERYONE is suddenly starving and needs to get into the kitchen RIGHT THIS MINUTE. I had an urge to throw Alphabits at them in the living room ;)

Hope you all had a nice day xox


The one milisecond that I had a clean kitchen floor ;)

Cosy day

Today I stayed home with the boys because it was a day off from their school. It was such a beautiful day and I felt so fortunate to be able to be outside! When Andreas got home, he put up the long awaited trampoline and we got some gardening done. Alexander, the lucky guy, was invited to go overnight camping with one of his best friends so he head out mid afternoon. To make up for it. Oliver and Nicka helped put up the trampoline and got to jump, jump, jump...
Now we are winding down for bed... I hope that Alexander remembers to brush his teeth ;)

Happy Friday to you all!

One of my favourite places

Sometimes, when they let me, the boys come to cuddle. If I am lucky, I get to kiss their heads. It reminds me when they were babies... their smell is still there. It is one of my favourite places to be and I treasure every moment of it....

Hope you had a happy day!

Flower bomb

Yesterday, it snowed. Really. Not much.... but enough... ugh! Happily, today is much better! Sunny and warm-ish... I will take it! Thought I would post a flower bomb in order to make up for the crappy snow ;) Nothing like Montreal in the spring time!

Wishing you all a great Tuesday xox

Party dude

Well... after almost 2 hours of trampoline jumping, cupcakes and friends, Oliver is tired. He won't admit it but his energy level is definitely approaching zero ;) He told me that loved his party and wished that he could do it every weekend! Ummm..... can I recover from this one first? ;)

Wishing you all a great end to the weekend xox












Six years

Today, Oliver turns 6 years old!! I cannot believe how fast time flies! I still remember when he was born.... sigh!
We will be having his party later today so I will check back in after that. Wish me luck... 12 kindergarten friends... and cupcakes... That will be a lot of energy! Thankfully, we are not having the party at home but at a trampoline centre. Wish me luck.... and some post-party wine ;)

Happy birthday to our beautiful Oli-boli! xox


Then.....

... and now! Happy birthday!

Today: an office with a view ;)

Last week, I thought my "new office" was a good idea and it couldn't get any better... I was wrong ;) Today, my "office" was on my backyard patio, with a bonus of beautiful sun, 23C temperature, a comfortable desk, an ice cream cone and my 2 new colleagues ;)

I finally finished grading about 30 minutes ago (YES!!! FINALLY!!!!) and will walk over to the boys' school to pick them up. We can all enjoy a nice walk home in the almost summer-like weather!

Hope your day is as awesome as ours.... When you live in Canada, you have to appreciate every drop of sunshine xox


This is a much nicer office than the one that I have at work ;)
Nice big windows ;)

The food is not bad ;)
Hello, colleague #1 ;)
I think that I am getting a dirty look from colleague #2 ;)
DONE!
Whew!!!!!! ;)
