We’re a blended family figuring out life together—sometimes gracefully, sometimes chaotically, but always with love. I’m a stay-at-home mom, and my husband is a ship captain who’s away for work along stretches every month, which means our days are full, lively, and always a little unpredictable.
Our story began in 2020; me with two kids from a previous marriage, him with a daughter from his own past relationship. Navigating divorce, separation, and blending our families hasn’t always been easy, but it’s taught us so much about patience, teamwork, and finding joy in the little things. After five amazing years, we tied the knot; and shortly after, found out we were expecting again! Now our children have an 8, 11, and 16-year age gap from our new baby, which keeps life exciting, challenging, and incredibly rewarding.
We started this blog to share our journey: the ups and downs of blended family life, our favourite parenting tips, products that make our days easier, and our adventures as a Canadian-US family who loves to travel. From family trips to everyday moments at home, we want to share the real, messy, joyful, and sometimes hilarious life we lead.
We are soon to be a family of 6! Our journey together began in 2020; me with two children born in 2014 and 2017, and my husband with a daughter born in 2009. Together, we’re creating a home full of laughter, learning, and love, with our newest little one on the way to join the mix!
My husband and I also share a 15-year age gap, which brings a unique perspective and a lot of life experience to our family dynamic.
We aim to connect with like-minded people who value family, travel, and everyday adventures. We want to share our journey as a blended family; celebrating the joys, navigating the challenges, and finding inspiration in the little moments. Along the way, we highlight the products and brands we love, sharing what truly makes life easier and more enjoyable.
Looking ahead, we hope to collaborate with brands that align with our values and lifestyle, creating authentic content that inspires and connects with others on a similar path.
