Holidays with Kids
As we head into the holiday season, I’m reminding myself of how I felt over the summer. Although it isn’t nearly as long, I do want to enjoy the holidays as much as possible! I had thought summer break was going to be simple and easy – no problem. I felt the previous summer wasContinue reading “Holidays with Kids”
“Did you do anything for yourself today?”
I remember 10 years ago when Leela was a few months old, Naren came home from work, observed us for a while and asked me, “Did you do anything for yourself today?” I didn’t really know, but the answer was no. I think back at that now, and I’m glad that I took thatContinue reading ““Did you do anything for yourself today?””
Post Holiday Reset
The holidays were fun… The kids brought home a bug on the last day of school that cascaded through our family (not the fun part.) So we spent Christmas at home, cuddled up in bed, taking turns caring for each other, and re-watching How I Met Your Mother.. but we were together. And isn’t thatContinue reading “Post Holiday Reset”

Lessons From My Mother – Part 1: The Weekly Set Meal Plan
My mother is an amazing woman. A typical working mother – and busy with 3 kids, she made the time and effort for a different home-cooked meal every night of the week. And it was consistent every week. We loved the routine and the anticipation of Wednesday night pizza, where we all had our ownContinue reading “Lessons From My Mother – Part 1: The Weekly Set Meal Plan”
How to make your Resolutions Stick
The number one resolution people make in January is to improve health and fitness. And you definitely see it – the gym suddenly gets busier, we see fellow moms meeting up in their running shoes, “gluten-free” is plastered all over the place. But often by March or February the gyms empty out again, and ourContinue reading “How to make your Resolutions Stick”
How to Live in a Small Space with Kids
Most people think having a family means needing more space – often a home. My family has proven this to be untrue. We comfortably live in a small condo downtown – 5 of us in a 500 square foot apartment! And we make it work well for us. Owning a home is great for someContinue reading “How to Live in a Small Space with Kids”
