Any of you who are my Facebook Friends, or followers on Twitter, have often seen me refer to myself as a DIVA. I am not talking about the drama queen, high maintenance type of DIVA. I am referring to the Passion Parties definition…. Disciplined (when I set my mind to task, I get it done) Inspired (by my friends, my team, family and more)…

Get Outdoors: Mini-Hike with Kids

PTPAMarch 9, 2014

A magical thing happened today. The thermometer on my deck sat in this thin ray of sunshine and for once, the little red needle edged over into the “+” category. The clouds dissipated and that inspiring blue colour of the sky came flying through. The mountains & foothills of our backyard popped into view, and all of the snow melted…

He Will Be Our Last

PTPAMarch 8, 2014

Knowing that you are done having children can be an emotional roller coaster. At least for me it is. I can remember telling my Mom one day when I was younger, that I didn’t want children. “They are loud, they smell and there is NO way a doctor is going to be up in all my lady bits” – Typical…

In addition, creating a laundry routine can help your family get organized. This particular laundry routine, that your…

Winter Fun With Family Festivities

PTPAMarch 3, 2014

I may be Canadian but cold is not my thing, especially when we’re talking -30 to -40 degree weather. Being a father it’s something I have to “suck up” and get over as the little one loves being outdoors. As do I, if it’s no colder than -15 that is! One of the things that I like about this…

Saddest 48 Hours Of My Life

Two days ago I went in for my 8 week appointment with my OB. I had to bring along 3 of the kiddo’s because hubby was at work. Trying to keep that many kids happy was quite a feat. But I was ok with it because I was getting to see my OB , who I love, and getting to…
