Doesn’t a full belly laugh just feel so good??? Let me tell you, it’s a great way to spend time with your spouse!
Darren and I really wanted to go to Amy Schumer Live and had talked about getting tickets for several months. In case you’re not familiar with who Amy Schumer is, she is a ‘no-topic-is-off-limits’ kind of comedienne. We both really enjoy her humour, which is strange almost, because we don’t typically have the same tastes in entertainment…so, bonus right?? [Read more…]
October is a busy month for many families and our family was no exception. Of course we had the usual…work and hockey for my husband, preschool and activities for the twins, and I ran my business and blog and continued to make the ‘wheels go around’ for our household.
On top of that there was, of course, Thanksgiving and Halloween…plus we had one last ‘Glamping’ hoorah. Oh, and my BFF also had a big birthday celebration to top it all off. [Read more…]
One of the hardest things about having kids is keeping the marriage alive. I’m mean, let’s face it…our bodies are different, our schedules are busy, our beds are sometimes not our own, etc., etc. I could go on and on – there are countless things fighting for our attention and challenging our time.
On top of all of this, if you haven’t hired a babysitter in YYC lately, I’ll let you know right now that the going rate is $10-$15/hour. [Read more…]

Afraid of looking like an angry clown despite efforts to look sexy, while a complete stranger photographed my mostly-naked self. [Read more…]
Wow! I can’t believe I’m finally here!
This tiny idea of having a personal/lifestyle blog has sort of become a bit of a project, so I am elated to finally be sharing it with you!
(starting a blog seems like it should be simple but, man, there are A LOT of things to consider before actually getting to put your pen to paper! That’s definitely going to have to be a blog post later!) [Read more…]
Hi! I’m Dionne – and, welcome to my mommy blog!
I’m a busy mom to kindergarten-aged twins, a small business owner, and a wife.
…and when I can, I try my best, to be a good friend!
I live in YYC (full-time) and the East Kootenays (part-time).
This is where you can find my adventures (and catastrophes) trying to manage it all and still hold onto a tiny sliver of my own identity…and sanity!
