Since we’ve been stuck at home so much lately, our family decided to make the most of those extra hours and do something we’d been planning for quite some time…work on finishing our basement!
Containing two bedrooms for the older boys and a large rec room, we wanted the space to be vibrant and fun. And when Photowall contacted me about reviewing one of its wall murals, I knew I’d found the perfect way to make that happen! [Read more…]
Sometimes, the best thing about getting that perfect Christmas gift is getting a perfect gadget or accessory to go with it! And if you got your dream smartphone or a brand new laptop for Christmas this year, the Eggtronic Sirius 65W Universal Charger Power Adapter is a must-have accessory that will make using your new device even better.
Calling a charger a must-have accessory may seems strange…but only until you’ve tried this one! Eggtronic is already a top name in electronics accessories thanks to its commitment to impeccable quality and design, and the new Sirius charger is no exception. [Read more…]
With two school-aged boys in the house (and one just about a year away from high school), I’ve seen my kids bring home a fair bit of homework.
And while I’m almost always willing to lend a hand if they have questions or need an explanation, I also want them to develop healthy study habits working independently. That’s why having a comfortable and functional homework space is so important to me!

With the new school year underway and both my boys now diving into their work, I’m once again looking forward to following their learning throughout the year and helping them succeed any way I can.
And for my middle son Benjamin, that means I’ll be keeping an eye on his math! Benjamin gets good grades when it comes to math, but it’s by far his least favourite subject.
I want to change that this year and give him a passion for learning by helping to make math a more fun and rewarding experience. And Revolution Math is helping me do that!
Revolution Math is an online tutoring service that specializes in helping children in Grades 2-5 develop their math skills. With games, points, gems and rewards, it’s set up in a way that helps make math fun instead of a chore. [Read more…]
Being pregnant again after so many years since my last baby was an interesting experience. Having “been there, done that” before, I had a pretty good idea of how I wanted pregnancy to go. I took my prenatal vitamin, along with an Omega-3 supplement, religiously. I indulged in prenatal massages. I tried my best to stay flexible with light yoga a few times a week.
But with two older boys in the house, a husband with an inconsistent schedule and the inevitable cravings of pregnancy, I had a surprisingly hard time making sure I was eating a healthy diet! Unlike my other two pregnancies, I had intense sugar cravings when carrying Cormac. And heartburn often had me skipping meals as well. [Read more…]
