You Auto Know: "Fiona's Five" a Fairy Fête
http://www.youautoknowblog.com/2015/04/fionas-five-fairy-fete.html
Sunday, April 26, 2015. Fiona's Five" a Fairy Fête. I have a five year old. But you already knew that. Fiona decided on a fairy theme after a heart to heart discussion about too much of a good thing. We still love you Frozen but I just can't anymore. I may have added a little "woodland" to the fairy mostly so I could grab 90% of the decorations on a cabin nature walk. Some ripped fabric added some whimsy to this branch. These pre-bud willows will also take up permanent residence in our home. There are th...

You Auto Know: August 2014

Thursday, August 14, 2014. Our Garden and My Mom is Super {Obviously}. My Mom is amazing, I'm sure I've said that before but, you know, I feel like I can't say it enough. There are many reasons but today I'm talking about my Mom the career woman. My Mom put her career on the back burner when we were young and was home everyday until I was old enough to be home alone. She still worked part time {which I only recently found out since it never affected us} but did so when my Dad could be home. Don't get me ...

You Auto Know: Cedric is 3! {And Has Been for Almost a Month}
http://www.youautoknowblog.com/2015/04/cedric-is-3-and-has-been-for-almost.html
Thursday, April 2, 2015. And Has Been for Almost a Month}. When I asked Cedric what type of birthday he would like he gave his answer without a hint of doubt. Motorcyles that is, for those who don't speak Cedric. After some thought we expanded a little to motorcycle racing. Mostly so I could fill the house with these sweet banners. He didn't mind, of course. As long as something was "vrooming" he would be happy. Our new chalkboard wall got it's first workout. Freepik.com had plenty of choices.

Friday, January 16, 2015. Our 2014 Christmas Gift. Now that it is well after Christmas I feel safe in sharing our family Christmas gift. I mean, it's January 16th, were you all aware? I feel like I was just introduced to January and she's halfway out the door. We decided to do a calendar for our family this year. I have been enjoying having a DSLR so much and, even though I'm far from a pro, felt like sharing some of my favourite shots from the year. Just keeping it real you know. And a beauty in the boat.

Tuesday, June 24, 2014. Cecchetti Dance Theatre's Swan Song {but it's really mostly about Fiona}. I've said before that I have witnessed big change in my little girl this year. After Fiona's year end dance performance I reflected on how far she's come in even this small part of her life. When we first started attending the Cecchetti Dance Theatre. Classes I could barely peel Fiona off of me and certainly couldn't leave the room. I sought help from the instructor with no great expectations. Who wouldn't l...

You Auto Know: Fiona the Fabricator
http://www.youautoknowblog.com/2015/02/fiona-fabricator.html
Friday, February 6, 2015. Let's call it story-telling. Sounds much nicer than what I was originally calling this phase. Which was more along the lines of blazing trousers. Fine line there, right? I have heard other moms talk of how their littles lie so was expecting a few falsehoods. Nothing really prepared me for what we are now experiencing though. I mean, these are no ordinary lies. She's not just "no I didn't write on Cedric with Sharpie.". Me: Feefs, how was gymnastics. Me: What did you do? Me: sigh...

Monday, July 21, 2014. Some Favourite Pics From the Weekend. This was a bonus weekend for us. I was supposed to work on Saturday then mid week a friend reminded me that she owed me a weekend and that she would take this one. Well she sure didn't have to ask me twice, I jumped at the chance to get back to the lake. There was plenty of horsing around by these munchkins which produced this. I was attempting to get a nice picture of Fiona but these days I get a lot of duck lips. Cedric says: "No Nona.".

Sunday, November 30, 2014. It's Beginning to Look a Lot Like. I have a weekend trip to Toronto to share but that task seems a little daunting for a Sunday night. Instead I am posting some pictures of the weekend. We started it off right with a Friday night swim with our youngest friend Olivia. Saturday began with Fiona's ballet dress rehearsal. Her third dance recital is taking place next week and they are cute cute cute. In the afternoon we took in the Festival of. I know her so well. I hadn't equipped ...
