  • I think we are finally done the Fireplace. It’s such a hard fixture to decide on because it is the first thing you see when you walk in our front door. But this black is epic! Swipe for the progress 👈🏻👈🏻 Also, this girl is officially potty trained for her peepers but we are still working on those #2s. Wish us luck!

  • We seriously love country living, especially because our country has a view of the ocean. But with that, comes a lot more driving which to be honest scares me. Last month we teamed up with @allstatecanada to share their launch to nominate your community to implement safer driving initiatives. This is such an awesome opportunity to make our roads safer and there is still time to enter where you live. Head to my stories for the link. #safeDrivingStudy #sponsored

  • Since telling Poppy that we are having a baby, she has had a doll in her arms every moment she can. Today I swaddled the doll because she said that her baby was cold, I have never seen her happier. Mamas of girls, double tap if your daughter did the same when you were expecting #poppyruthdecoeli

  • “This morning, with him, having coffee” This man has given me so much confidence since we met. But, somethings need a bit more help than unconditional love. My smile have been a sore spot my whole life and today I’m going in-depth on my horrible history with braces and how @thebracespace is helping my smile get back to the dream I always envisioned. If you are local I’d head to the blog today. I’m 4 weeks in and am so happy that I’m doing this. Top is @shoppinkblush maternity. #partner #thebracespace

  • I love being a mother. It comes naturally to me. I even love the newborn stage where you run on little to no sleep and are pretty much a dairy cow. It’s hard but brings me so much joy. But, pregnancy...now that’s something that just doesn’t sit well with me. Each pregnancy so far has had its complications, far beyond not feeling the glow and the inability to enjoy my changing body. With Aubrey, my platelets dropped so low that I had to have weekly blood tests to make sure he was ok. With baby #2, it ended in a scary partial molar pregnancy that made itself known through a miscarriage. Poppy brought on low platelets, colestasis, and her being transverse, leading to multiple versions and an induction at 37 weeks. So, with the 4th pregnancy, we knew there was going to be something. I’ve updated you on my stories as to what is going on but will find out more on Friday. I know I am so lucky to be able to worry And to have two beautiful babies already. Thinking of that and them is making this a bit easier to go through. #babydnumero3

  • One thing that this pregnancy has brought, is knowing what a ROCK of a hubby I have. From handling the morning routine when my nausea was at it’s worse to being by my side throughout the ups and downs of emotions. He’s the best! We got to have a mini getaway @hotelxtoronto and it was the nicest place we have stayed and thing we have done in a very long time, especially before baby#3. If your heading to Toronto, you need to stay there. #hotelxtoronto #partner

  • It’s been a very weird Christmas this year with lots of highs and well behaved kIds, mixed with lows, tradition changes, and health scares. We have been doing a lot of this over the past few days and took a step back from Instagram for a moment. Head to my stories for an update and don’t worry baby is fine but my belly is no longer massive 😐😐😐. Merry Christmas to all you lovely people xo

  • We are serious when it comes to finger foods, especially around the holidays. These individual nachos have become a fan favorite in this house and are perfect for any get together you may have. Food doesn't have to be fussy and complicated when you are entertaining this season. These look fancy but all they took were leftover pulled pork, cheese, @tostitoscanada Salsa, lettuce and sour cream layered together for pure bliss. But remember, if all you have time for is pouring some salsa and cheese dip into some bowls and open a bag of chips, you are ahead of the game and everyone will still be so happy to spend time with you! head to my stories to find out how to make these. #GetTogetherGetTostitos #sponsored

  • Aubrey has always been a curious kid, but lately, he has been asking a ton of questions about our family. And, to be totally honest I don't have all of the answers. I have always been curious about our heritage, growing up hearing family stories, but never know which to believe. This Holiday I am working with @ancestryCA to find out some answers. We can't wait to find out the results. What better gift to give someone you love, than the gift of knowing their history. What would you want to learn most? #AncestryDNA #sponsored

  • Finally! We are officially in the second trimester and have made it to 14 weeks with my little baby bump. Lots of stuff has happened over the last two weeks including a gym membership,my sickness dying down as well as our decision on whether or not we are going to find out the gender. I’ve written all about it on the blog so if you’re not running around on this weekend before Christmas, head over there to find out all the Deets. For all of you who are probably going to ask this blanket is by the lovely @mulder_and_company and is an heirloom item our family will pass down for years to come. Also rocking my scrunchie game hard with @shopchelseaking. #14weekspregnant

  • Our Elf is back this year and he surprised the kids with a toy each from their wishlists. I am totally that mom that can’t wait until Christmas to see our kids' reactions to their gifts. I know I can't be the only one ;) We headed to @canadiantire for the majority of our kids' toy gifts and were so happy with the great selection. That store has seriously become our first stop for everything Christmas. Anyone else feel the same? #CTChristmas #partner

  • This season we have been reflecting on how far we have come as a family, and as individuals since Aubrey was born. There have been parts of our journey where we were so thankful for outside support and family because nothing is ever as it seems. So many people in our own community need help, especially when it comes to their food bills. We are wanting to teach Aubrey to appreciate what we now have, to know that not everyone is as lucky, and to help those who aren't. That's why we have been so passionate about helping @Sobeys promote their Holiday Giving program. It's not too late to get involved and share a food donation at your local Sobeys. These donations help food banks in our communities fight food insecurity over the holiday season. Head to your local Sobeys store or check out the link in my bio to find out #WhatFoodCanDo for someone in need. #sponsored
