I have a soft spot in my heart for American Thanksgiving.
My grandma grew up in Buffalo, and every year we would call her on her Thanksgiving and wish her a happy Thanksgiving.
So, when I turned on the tv and saw the Macy's parade preparations, I was excited. So, I told Doodle all about Great Grandma, and how this day was special to her.
I told him that Great Grandma was born in Buffalo. He looked at me with really wide eyes and said "Wow! My Great Grandma grew up in a Hotel and shopped at Target when she was 4???"
I could have told him about hardship and growing up back then. But, instead I just said "yep. her life was pretty exciting."
I'm sorry to not post more. I have about a zillion drafts saved, but really, there's not too much to say. My baby is teething again, I'm kind of dreading going back to work, and I'm stressing about Christmas. That makes for some fun posts.

Me and the Fam
- LD
- Toronto, Ontario, Canada
- I'm a zany mom to a little boy and a baby girl. My house is rarely clean, my life is kind of frazzled, but I'm happy and wouldn't change a thing! My son, Doodle, is energetic, crazy and one of the sweetest children you will ever meet. My baby, Coco, is almost one. She's full of energy and is total personality! I've been blogging for a couple of years now, but recently decided to move to a space that gives me a little more anonymity. I've been married for almost 7 years to "Phat Daddy" a wonderful man who is my complete opposite. He's calm when I'm hyper. He's quiet and I'm talkative. We bicker a lot but we love each other intensely. I work in marketing and communications, downtown Toronto but enjoying my maternity leave right now.
