We Love Fridays: 15 TV Shows to Watch Over the Holidays

While I love my family and getting to spend oh so much time with them over the holidays (seriously, I do), I need some alone time too. When it all becomes a bit much, I like to escape with my favourite television show. Having a marathon with my TV BFFs and some hot tea is blissful when the holidays become stressful (and if you're my family, loud too!)

20 Fresh Ideas for Fun with Kids

I'm pretty sure they invented Teacher Workdays for the sole purpose of convincing we fence-sitters that we're really not cut out for homeschooling. Not even a little bit.

We just survived a month littered with at least 6 days off school (did I mention I'm a Work-At-Home Mom?).  It might have been more, but I think selective memory is shielding me from recalling every little...

Postcard from the Orlando You May Not Know

If you're an Orlando newbie like me, the first thing you think of when someone mentions the city is, without a doubt, Disney World. However, I recently had the amazing opportunity to see Orlando for a few days with Visit Orlando and not only did I have an incredible time, I had it without visiting Disney World. I'm not knocking Disney World by any means, I love me some Disney and I have a...

Dose of Adorable: Cutest Reaction to Christmas Gift

 
All throughout my childhood (and still into my adulthood), I always wanted to receive a big present box. Wrapped up in shiny paper and tied with a perfect ribbon bow. Then, I would open up said box and to my delighted surprise a brand new cuddly and adorable puppy would pop out!

I can't be alone in this fantasy, right? In this edition of Dose of Adorable, I wanted to find and share some...
