Simple wellness in a frantic world.
Holidays & Seasonal
My days are normally full to overflowing with diapers, dishes, and discipling. Somewhere in there, my formerly-crafty-creative self gets squished down and I often come to the end of the day without having created so much as a well-executed meal (pancakes for dinner again?). That's why ...
Beauty & Body Care
I've seen many homemade toothpaste recipes floating around internet-land for a few years now. Most recipes are a baking soda mixture, and while I have serious respect for the power of baking soda (it's an awesome tub cleaner!), the thought of it in my mouth makes me scrunch up my ...
Babies & Kids
The day is drawing to a close. Dinnertime is finished, cute little tooshes have been scrubbed clean in the bath, story-time is over, and even One-More-Story-Pleeeease-time is done. Time to snuggle and get into cozy beds when all of a sudden you hear it: a low growl, or heavy ...
All images in this post by the amazing Jay McIntyre Photography It has been a crazy year for our "little" family... 2012 started out with me being partway through the pregnancy of our third child. Hubs started a job as a flight instructor in Tiny Town, but wasn't making enough ...
Holidays & Seasonal
Without a doubt stocking stuffers were my favourite part of Christmas morning as a child. My siblings and I would wake up super early and wait not-so-patiently in our rooms until the agreed-upon time (usually 7, I think - such cruel torture! and yes, I'm absolutely doing the same to ...
Holidays & Seasonal
It's holiday party-time! Whether you have plans to attend a posh event with eleven pieces of cutlery per place setting, or you're getting together with the cousins at Grandma's, there's usually a festive sort of feeling at gatherings in the month of December. I love this time of year ...
I used to think that when I became a mother I would be in control of my mothering-life. I'd be in control of my kids, of my temper, of my laundry. I'd be the organized mom, y'all (how hard could it be?). I'd be the patient one, the one with crafty activities and delightfully playful ...
Holidays & Seasonal
(This is my monthly post over at Frugal Granola) Now that Thanksgiving is officially over, there’s really no excuse to tone down the Christmas talk. Yippee! (says the Christmas-enthusiast-who-started-listening-to-Christmas-music-in-October). Handmade gifts have enjoyed a ...
Holidays & Seasonal
I declare a mutiny on the rush and stress of the Christmas season. I'm tired of it. It flies directly in the face of every ideal I hold for what Christmas is actually all about, and this year - I'm doing something about it. Christmas is a time to slow down, reflect, and worship the ...
About Me
I’m a mom of four with an obsession for all things natural health, but I’m driven by wellness, not perfection. I’m an eternal optimist, a non-conformist, and a classic INFP. When I was 19, I married my total-opposite hubby, who is an ESTJ. This remains both the craziest and the best decision we’ve ever lived to tell about. I can always be bribed with sushi or tex-mex, and I love to embarrass my husband by cranking the music and dancing (badly) in the passenger seat.
