Last month our family trip to Miami got cancelled due to concerns related to Hurricane Matthew. I was really looking forward to getting away, but that trip just wasn't in the cards. But I didn't give up ... I was determined to do something! The idea of a staycation intrigued me and now I can't wait to share my 44 hour experience at 44 Charles. 

I love to travel, but vacations sure have changed after having a baby. The idea of packing up and jetting off for a week can sometimes be daunting with a child and can take a whole lot of planning. Therefore, a staycation was a concept that I embraced with open arms! Plus, there is just something magical about slowing down in your own city and appreciating it as a tourist.

Happy 182nd birthday to our city! I love this city, the people in it and everything there is to do in Toronto. Tonight we found a local meditation class and this weekend we will be will be hitting the AGO for Family Sundays!!

I thought I would share 10 interesting facts about our beautiful city, Toronto. Some of them I had no idea about either. 

As a mom of one I am still learning how to balance everything and I still get uptight when things go off schedule. I hear this becomes easier when baby #2 arrives (no, I’m not pregnant). Exercise has helped manage my stress and I laugh a lot more because of it. So this weekend, get moving wherever and whenever you can!
