One of my kids' favorite pastimes of all time is to 'play restaurant'. With play food or imaginary food, a paper and pen or just their finger and palm of their hand. They are often seen asking random people what they want to eat or drink, then running off to make a decadent meal or snack for them. Pride in providing nourishment, excited in being helpful and working together as cooks and waitresses. It's … [Read more...]
Recall my 'OVERexcited' post where I shared a photo of myself pregnant at 36 weeks? Possibly an over-used term these days, yet I honestly was completely and utterly OVERthemoon in love with my newborn baby girl, photo circa 2004.

Truth is, that's one hard decision, since there's so many toys that my girls … [Read more...]
Beat Induction: Let me take you back, the year is 2009 and the twins are sleeping soundly in the living room. One is in the Fisher-Price Rainforest Swing and the other in the Rainforest Activity Center. The room is silent except for the music from both toys playing at the same time yet not in unison, over and over. And over. Sometimes it gave me a headache as would hearing anything so repetitively, yet … [Read more...]
Our family recently took a trip aboard the Royal Caribbean's Allure of the Seas with Fisher-Price. Yet we didn't go alone. We went with 15 of our most favorite and fun families, our fellow Fisher-Price Ambassadors from Canada and the US, the #FisherPriceMoms. The mission? Learn about Royal Caribbean's partnership with Fisher-Price and what that means for travelling families. Yet, there is of course wonderful side … [Read more...]
