Chronic exhaustion

I just cant get enough of this cheeky smile, I could just eat him all up!!!  So I may be suffering from Chronic exhaustion, Ha! I'm off for blood teats and  another doctors visit but apparently I dont get enough sleep and considering this cheeky monkey wakes up at least 3 times a night its no suprise, I'm hoping it is only Chronic exhaustion( it was the term the Doc used and I quite like it, sounds better than tired!!!) which would mean I should be all good in another 3 years! So I'm off to bed to watch the new Greys Anatomy and make a Tutu.

Time to chill

I think my body is telling me enough is enough and it is time for a rest, I am bone tired it even hurts to breathe! I have even made a Doctors app, I haven't been for a physical since I had Lorenzo so it is high time i get checked out, I would have gone to my Homeopath if the waiting list wasn't so long but I'll see what the Doc has to say first. I think I just need a full nights sleep, having run on no more than 5 hours a night since having Lorenzo can't be good for me . I will leave cleaning the house until tomorrow, I have already done parking duty at school and had Lorenzos pre school class this morning and we have soccer tonight so I am going to spend the afternoon cuddling up with Lorenzo and enjoy doing nothing for a while...

Saturday night

 Last night we went for dinner at our lovely friends condo, they have the most amazing view of downtown Toronto and the lake that you would never ever get tired of looking at. The kids enjoyed some fishing along the Humber river and we all enjoyed a late night swim and hot tub session, it was a lovely evening!

Twinkle toes and Friday Phone dump

My little girl decided she wanted to learn how to tie her own shoelaces, she really wants to wear her twinkle toes to school and unless she could tie them up herself they were a no go, so we sat outside and I showed her how once and that was it, she totally got it,  The Twinkle toes were worn today!!!

Here is my Friday Phone Dump...

Parent and Tot class

Yesterday was Lorenzo's first pre-school class and I must admit I was a little less than enthusiastic at the thought of another parent and tot class, I mean I know the routine of the class by heart!!! But I loved it, he was the cutest thing ever, he was so happy and my heart melted at his smile. He has been surrounded by older kids and his brothers and sisters friends and is such a sociable little boy but it is definitely his time to shine. He was off and playing and i sat back and let him gain his independence a little bit more, every now and then he would check that I was still there and we would play together and then he would be off again. I can't believe he is going to be 2 soon, no matter how hard I try to slow it all down and try to keep him my baby he is off and running and I  am trying to keep up!!!!

 This is his new smile, i point the camera and out come the teeth
 This was on our way, what you cant see is he is holding his little lunch bag with his juice box and snacks, Oh how he loves his little lunch bag!
 As you can see, there is no sign of my baby anymore but he is the cutest kid ever and he kills me with his charm.

Older and wiser
















So I have turned 35 today and as I have























spent the year thinking





























I was already 35 I feel like I



































haven't aged at


























all!!! I have had a really lovely day and































was really spoilt by my



































lovely Hubby and kiddos, I usually get a



































little sad on my birthday as I am getting







































older and life




































sometimes feels as it is passing me by





































but I am now embracing growing older and



































hopefully wiser and I




































couldn't be any happier with my life and











































where it is taking me!

So Excited!!!!!

I am so excited, I now have my T shirts and my hand made Tutus in my first Toronto store!!
I have been busy screen printing all of my Tees this week and we have all been surrounded by Tulle, Daniele is over the Tulle! But the Tutus look so beautiful, I am so happy with them, i went with really soft muted colours and they look so beautiful, my favourite is the Grey.
My New years resolution was to get my butt in gear and start making up my T shirts and I am so happy I did, I dropped off lots of Tees and Tutus this afternoon and I have already sold a  Rose pink Tutu and a Glasses Tee
 I finished the Tutus off with a flower that can also be worn as a hair clip, I love how it looks with the flower
 I made a ballerina Tee to go with the Tutus


The Store is called Kid Culture and is 2986 Dundas St West, Toronto.

African Lion Safari

Yesterday we headed out to The African Lion Safari and we had a great day, the place was fantastic and was great for all of the kids, we couldn't believe how close we were to all of the animals. We were brave and drove our own car through and we lucked out as the Baboons were interested in the car in front so we got to laugh at them and my car made it out in one piece!!!!!
 These two think they are so funny!!!

 We stayed around for the Elephant swim, Alessia loved how they held each others Trunks with their tails

 I think a Tiger escaped
 The baby Goats were the cutest things ever, they loved Luca's shoelaces

 Haha, this Baboon refused to get off the car in front of us, the kids kept calling it to come on our car, thankfully he was quite happy where he was!
