Visit our sponsor: Imagine the following monologue in the style of an overly enthusiastic late-night infomercial: Are you tired of throwing your money away on products that disintegrate within weeks? Do you hate that Jeff Bezos added $67.9 billion dollars to his net worth in a year when the rest of us common folk were […]
Why You Need Polar Stroller Skis for Winter
Polar Stroller Skis Review I’m an optimist. Maybe you follow me on social media because my bubbly personality and glass-half-full outlook are just what you need to break up the monotony of your daily doomscroll. Or maybe you’ve blocked me because I’m not what you need right now. Either way, what matters is you’re here […]
Take a Peek at PEAKBWA: Kids’ Clothing that Lasts
As Canadian treasure Joni Mitchell would say, “you don’t know what you’ve got till it’s gone.” Except in my case, it goes something like “you don’t know all the cool people living near you and you don’t realize the impact of affordable daycare till you move away.” But those lyrics wouldn’t fit in a Big […]
Unique Slow Fashion Gifts from JORD {+ Giveaway}
In a world of fast fashion, JORD is a family-owned, high-end accessories brand that is striving to innovate with ethically made designs from reclaimed and natural materials.

18 Books That Shaped My Life
A guest post by Maman Loup’s cousin, August Kirste-Yee I just graduated from high school, which, if I’m honest, still doesn’t feel real. What feels even less real is the fact that my 18th birthday is next month … yikes. With all these huge milestones plus these wacky pandemic times, I’ve been feeling pretty nostalgic. […]
More of My 7-year-old’s Favourite Series
We miss the library. A lot. While some folks were panic buying toilet paper, I only just bought a small package last week. What I’ve been panic buying is BOOKS. If my son yells to me from the toilet that we’re out of TP, we’ve got loads of soft flannel wipes for that. But if […]
Hamuq Hybrid Mattress Review
I don’t know about you, but one of the most exciting things about finally co-habitating with my then-fiancé—now husband of almost eleven years—was that we would get to share a bed! Sure I was moving to the opposite end of the country, but what was most exciting? Picking out sheets for our new bed! A […]
5 Things that Surprised Me About Newex Period Panties
I have always been a bit baffled by period panties. Since having my first child and committing to cloth diapers, I fell in love with cloth menstrual pads and menstrual cups. But when period panties first hit the market, I admit that I didn’t really get it. Isn’t the whole point of a cloth pad […]
Racing Through Life in my Toboggan Canada Parka
In writing this review of my deliciously warm and delightfully stylish Toboggan Canada Christine K Parka, I have gone down a proverbial internet rabbit hole, determined to correctly define the terms “parka,” “jacket” and “coat.” And while I now know that a parka is a knee-length, normally down-filled winter jacket, and that this term comes […]
4 DK Titles to Pique Your Curiosity + #DKGiftGiving Contest
Curiosity is a curious thing. It’s innate in small children as their brains learn to process and understand the world around them. As a parent, this nascent curiosity can be as contagious as it can be frustrating. “Why is it snowing?” can just as well inspire an engrossing conversation about how the water cycle works […]
Endless Possibilities for Preschoolers with the NEW Fisher-Price® Wonder Builders™ design system
For better or for worse, my 4-year-old daughter is sandwiched between a 7-year-old brother and 18-month-old twins … so she rarely gets an activity that’s just for her. So when Fisher-Price®—a brand whose toys from the 80s and 90s are still hot commodities when my kids visit their grandparents—came calling with new building toys designed […]
#adulting in Style with JORD’s Unique Wood Apple Watch Band {+ Coupon Code & Giveaway}
By Sean Gallimore (aka Maman Loup’s baby bro) This year, we finally got around to doing a responsible adult thing—we got life insurance. I suppose it’s not a particularly exciting thing and generally wouldn’t have anything to do with watch straps, but in this case it does. And, that’s about as good as a segue […]
Best Straw Cups for Baby
Having never had babies that took bottles before, I turned to fellow moms of multiples to give me some tips on what to do for the Cub Twins when they were done with bottles. I have sincerely and truly (perhaps annoyingly to some) loved breastfeeding, but pumping milk and mixing formula in bottles was really […]
The Philips Avent Soothie Snuggle: The Soother-Loving Baby’s New Best Friend
This blog post is sponsored by Philips Avent. The opinions expressed are my own. If you’ve been following my journey from mom of two to mom of four, you’ll know the arrival of the Cub Twins brought all sorts of game-changing experiences my way. I suppose it’s an asset, considering my line of work, to […]
Keeping my Qool with the Joovy Qool
It would’ve been so qool to have had the Joovy Qool stroller from day one when we brought the Cub Twins home from the NICU. Luckily, I had another awesome Joovy product in its place, but once the twins were out of their bucket seats, the Joovy Twinroo stroller had to move on to greener, […]
