An Exciting Venture Ready To Be Announced!

Last August, 15 days before I delivered a tiny human into this world, Jules and I launched The Craft Cabinet. Over 20 woman gathered together in a charming vintage shop in Long Beach California to eat, drink, craft and be merry. And merry we were. We had just as much (exhausting) fun as our attendees, […]

Ready And Waiting

It’s been over 5 years since I played this waiting game, but it still feels all too familiar, like it was just yesterday.  This whole pregnancy I’ve had this notion in my head that this being my 3rd time around, it would be easier.  The labour and delivery part.  I had myself convinced that it […]

Potty Training the 3rd Time Around

We set out to get Hayden potty trained a couple of weeks ago, just several days shy of his 3rd birthday. In all honesty, had we not been required to have him fully trained for the start of preschool, I’m not sure I would’ve finally taken the plunge. He’s my 3rd and final baby, and […]
