Hi guys! So, many of you have asked me how we are surviving or enjoying staying in hotels with our small children, for an extended period of time. Well, it’s been really great and also challenging too! Here’s a few quick points on how to survive hotel life while ‘on the road’: 1. Do…
Where in the world are we?
I really thought I would be blogging way more while ‘on the road’ but sadly that just hasn’t happened (yet). Traveling as a family is very exciting, but even though it sounds really amazing, it does still come with its challenges. Like your littles getting sick or not sleeping very well in different environments… We’ve been…
What to pack when traveling with a toddler
Let’s be honest… the thought of flying with young children can be overwhelming even with angel kiddos 😉 We recently traveled overseas with our nearly three year old toddler and our nearly three month old baby. I was way more nervous to travel with our baby; but actually, that was the easy part! Hands down, our…
A Letter to my Dad

Well except for your lawn! 😉 Our…
Traveling with Littles: Tips and Tricks
I’ve learnt a few things flying with small kiddos lately, and I know I’ll keep on learning as we continue to raise little jet setters who are happy flyers. We are by no means experts, but we’ve made enough mistakes and witnessed enough meltdowns and vomit explosions to know a thing or two about traveling…
Traveling with Littles – Part One
I’m sitting on a flight to Toronto, on our way back home to Saskatoon from South Africa (flight route: Johannesburg – Munich – Toronto – Saskatoon via Lufthansa operated by Air Canada) as I start typing this post, and my oh my have we been having fun flying with two littlies… Said no parent ever!…
