Baby's Day Out
Dressing a Toddler For a Day At Disney World
We are so excited for our very first trip to Disney World this week (a first for both my little one and myself!), that I decided to plan our outfits ahead, because one must be wearing the perfect outfit when they’ll be visiting the happiest place on earth, right? Here’s what Fern will be wearing…

Last week they finally came. The balance bikes that I spent hours researching and mulling over which to choose and finally ordering, they finally arrived! Oh glorious day. What first began as a bit of a long-wait in shipping turned into a perfect collision of time and circumstance. You see, I’m a lover of my iPhone. iPhone ‘appery’ as it were – is probably one of my favoured vices. Photography, photo-editing and movie-making apps to be precise.

When it comes to photography and photo organization, I’m extremely disorganized. My video clips and photos of my kids are all over the place and usually get dumped into iPhoto or folders throughout my desktop. This makes things challenging when I’m trying to create photo books or fun creations for my family. Over the past couple of weeks I’ve been testing out the brand new “Story” app from Disney that has made my life so much easier.
This is a digital storytelling app for iPhone and iPod touch that allows you to transform your photos and video to create beautiful stories that can be saved and shared. It’s genius because it automatically places your photos in order (by time and date) so you don’t have to manually insert each and every one. I took my son out to the park yesterday afternoon and put it into play. Here’s a look. Want to create your own? The Story App officially launched today and is available for free from the App Store http://bit.ly/18slGZY.
Magic In The Mundane: Instagram Challenge
Last week I shared a post all about finding magical moments in the midst of the mundanity of parenthood. I shared a slideshow about simple, everyday moments, that I had captured of my daughter…the little moments that are such a part of our everyday routine that they have become a bit mundane. Through capturing and writing about these moments, I was reminded of the incredible beauty that lies in the most simple parts of our day together. Our children will only be little for so long, a fleeting season, so let’s take the time to soak it up!
On Believing All the Way
“When you believe in a thing, believe in it all the way, implicitly and unquestionable.“
~ Walt Disney
Yesterday I was looking at Disney merchandise online and came across a plaque. On it was the above mentioned quote by Walt Disney. I didn’t think much about it and continued going about my day. But this morning, as I finished packing to attend my very first blog conference Walt Disney’s words came back to my mind. I thought about my husband and how, despite traveling with me while my mother takes care of our furry baby, this would be the first time that he acted as the primary caretaker for our daughters for an extended period of time.
