I've been meaning to capture the moments that make motherhood so special and although there are many videos and photos which will account for the first 15 months of Tavish's life there are no journals or scrapbooks. So, this blog will document the tid-bits and tales of the moments that make a mother proud, happy and generally enthused about this ride that is motherhood. This has been created for me but I invite you to read, share and enjoy this collection of moments too.

Stay-cation Camping
It's always nice to get away, so we spent two nights camping during Tom's final week of "parental leave". After sleeping in 5 different places in 8 nights with 2 kids, we opted for the camp ground over a canoeing trip this year to minimize the amount of planning required. Plus, this way, we had lots of space to ensure that we ate well and relaxed (as much as is possible with two kids anyway).

MOMENT: Portable Home
Car-camping enables all of the amenities of home, just much smaller and ... well, a little dirtier. It was high density living like we're used to - Tavish even played with the 'neighbour' kids. Tavish had his first roasted marshmellow, we spent hours at the beach, and only one night was interrupted by a raccoon. Good times, good times...
