I'm figuring that the OCD personality trait is what keeps us interesting? Let's just tell ourselves that, haha.

I agree. Us Canadian gals need to stick together. Whereabouts in Ontario are you?

You are working full-time with your three boys? HOW do you do it girl? Because in your Instagram pics you are always dressed and so are your boys. And they look clean.

Hahaha!

Maybe I'll have to add eating cottage cheese to my list of challenges for 2013.

Fear Factor. Ahhhhhh!

Okay WHAT, my dear, is a Filofax? I will definitely have to check it out for sure.

I feel the exact same way! I see the pictures on Pinterest and get excited in my mind but then can't seem to put forth the effort to make it a go.

Coops was born on April 25th. I'd love to see a pic of your daughter!!! That would be so cute if they were born the same day.

I so agree with Anonymous! You made me laugh when you said cottage cheese looked like brains.lol I do eat it but never thought that...still laughing!
I do have to check out the Etsy shop!

2013-01-30T14:45:46.589-05:00

I love your blog! You are refreshing and your baby is darling. I am a Grandmother to three. My oldest Grandson we raised from birth, who is now 21 and a junior in college. I feel fortunate as it seems that I have had two lives, raising three boys and then the Grandson. Your random thoughts made me smile and relate to those years of youth. Your decorating style is awesome. Bobbie from the Northwest

You know that time in the afternoon when you are trying to get the house tidied before hubby gets home and prepare some sort meal even though you would rather eat toast? That time when babies start getting whingy and whiney and cling on to your ankles while you are trying to walk from the fridge to the stove and you end up stirring the pot while jiggling the kid on your hip and watching the clock until reinforcements arrive??? Know which time I mean?? We called it arsnic hour at our place. My daughters call it cactus hour!!!

I don't know if you have many Asain Fans, but i'm from a small country, Cambodia. And I truly love your work and all decorations. I hope with my small salary saving will have a small house and could use all your inspiration style for my future house.

your blog is way too awesome. oh your family is so lovely.

2013-01-28T18:19:40.491-05:00

I'm the same way with the no muscle tone thing. Total bummer. How is that even possible?! I'm pretty sure before I got pregnant I never lifted something as heavy as a baby multiple times on a daily basis...

2013-01-28T15:12:54.781-05:00

This is such a fun post! Random thoughts are really what we're all thinking anyway, so why not write a post about them?!
B-day parties are way over the top...as are weddings, which I'm planning with my daughter now. Remember when you just had some friends over for some cake and then you played outside? Those were the days! No themes, or goodie bags or extravegant gifts...a simple toy and some fun. And weddings? Save the date? favor bags? REally????
The magazines...I love magazines and it is so hard to let them go. Your local library will probably take them and then patrons can buy them for a pretty cheap price and get to enjoy them just like you did...just a thought!
I miss snuggling my babies.
I love blue ink, but use black. Even better? red ink...just looks happier!
I have never, ever gotten back to my pre preg. weight and never will. Nope. Won't happen. I should lose some, okay lots, of weight and get in shape for the wedding...only 6 mos away. Shoot.
Technology. I'm not good at it. I can, however, sit for hours and look on pinterest and read people's amazing blogs, all while sitting in my pj's.
You will get a full night's sleep again...someday...buy you'll miss the days you didn't!

2013-01-28T13:20:09.476-05:00

Black ink for sure. That's not weird, is it? I love your random thoughts. I have those too but I'm afraid to reduce them to writing. I totally get the re-starting lists when you make a mistake. Sometimes I make a mistake right at the beginning of the list (usually my grocery list) and have to start again. OCD? Whatevsies ... Love your blog and love checking in to see how you and the fam-damily are doing. Keep it up. I'm Canadian too and I've been trying to figure out where you live (my guess is Sudbury). Love that you're Canadian and that us here in the Great White North can relate to you.

2013-01-28T13:03:23.311-05:00

Sarah- I know what you mean about being out of shape! I weigh the same thing I did as before having my boys as well- but I am not toned or in shape, but I guess since I see the same number on the scale I think I am doing great, and like you just pick up a cookie because I am proud of myself? ha! With three boys and working full time I can't imagine feeling in a workout time too- just sounds too exhausting, so I just stick to the fact I am glad I lost all of the weight! lol

Birthday partys are exhausting- I can't help myself and I am either all the way over the top or nothing at all! Ha, which we have never done nothing at all even though I tried to convince my Husband to let me do that last year and just take the boys to the beach, so he convinced to have a "small" party, which wasn't small and over the top! I can't wait to see what you do for Cooper's birthday! :)

2013-01-28T08:48:36.195-05:00

Sarahhhhhhhh, black pen is the one I absolutely avoid. Colour, colour, colour :)

And cottage cheese - oh man! Cottage cheese on toast with a cup of tomato soup = my favourite winter lunch :)

2013-01-28T07:53:13.980-05:00

I have to start lists with mistakes again too! Even if it is just me who is going to read it.... and I also only write in black. Blue or colours = yuck. Soon i am going to write a post dedicated to my new personalised Filofax (complete with my version of fancy photos - ie. rubbish!) you should check it out, i think you will like it! x

2013-01-28T05:40:44.436-05:00

I'm with you on the first birthday party business. I feel like doing something over the top, but then I get lazy just thinking about it. By the way, I live in Australia, and I think Cooper and my daughter were born on the same day, or maybe a day apart.
