With Violet’s Nut allergy we find ourselves making more foods at home. On tonight’s menu was Melissa’s home made Pizza and Lemon Meringue Pie. Both were delicious.
POD: Final snow day?
Today I was reminded of what I can expect as the weather warms. You see Jacob’s friend came knocking on the door after luanch today, wanting Jacob to come out and play. When it’s nicer I would have sent him out without a second thought, but today I bundled him up before heading out with …

Mobile Monday: Bud Phone
It seems strange that I have anything sponsored by Bud on my phone, but this little application saves me money so it’s hard not to like it. Bud Phone uses VOIP to let you make local calls to many cities in Canada (the complete list is here). Bud phone is a simple Dialler application for …

There sill …

POD: Snuggle-Up-and-Read 2
Once again Jacob’s school bag had books for Snuggle up and Read. So Mommy and him snuggled up on the couch and he read her a story. After wards they sat at the table and he wrote out the title, drew a picture from the book and wrote about it. It’s such a simple thing, …

Today is Valentines day and our little family celebrated. My Picture is of the kids in their chairs with their Valentines treats from mommy and daddy. I was hopping for a better picture but when you have to young kids wanting treats it can be hard to get them to sit still.
