One thing I will never deny is my love for food! Yes, I make an effort to exercise effectively and yes, I do eat healthy - packing my meals and snacks when I go off to my full-time job. But sometimes, I need that break from the kitchen and need to enjoy some down time with girlfriends. 

This is exactly why when I heard about President's Choice launching Babylicious that I had to get a bunch of mommy friends together to dine at one of the city's finest French restaurants.

How many of you are guilty of taking tons and tons of pics of your little ones only to have them sit on your phone or on your desktop for months (or years)? Okay, so I'm guilty of this too! I absolutely love taking pictures and I really should print them so that I can frame them or have a photo book in my family room that can be admired by guests. 

This month you might also recognize some familiar faces in the latest issue of Today's Parent! We are so grateful to have made a small appearance in such a respected parenting magazine - thank you!! 

Finally, mothers don't have to suffer going to mediocre restaurants just because they are considered "baby friendly"; President's Choice is launching BABYLICIOUS, which is a dining experience that allows us mothers to enjoy high-quality restaurant food in the company of our little ones!

Exciting news - our friends over at Binky Magazine just launched vol 7. of their mag and you can find us there too! We are so grateful to be a part of this as we share some fitness tips for the modern mama. But don't just go there for us - the magazine is loaded with beautiful images and kids styled in clothing that you and I could have only dreamed of as a child. This mag is unlike any other and I am so proud to be a part of this issue.

What an honour to be featured on cocoandcowe.com. I can't tell you how much I enjoy following her journey through motherhood - from her DIY projects to her fun snapchat adventures with her little one - she is just such an inspiration in so many ways! 

What a lovely start to the week! I was interviewed by the ladies over at Social Common and featured as one of their #SocialCommonMoms. I shared a little bit of background on myself and how No Tummy Mommy came to be. 

Happy Sunday FUNday! Tagged by the beautiful mama Lana Michele to share 10 more facts about me for Unite In Motherhood's anniversary! So here goes:

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. 

February is the month of love, so we're on the LOT 801 blog today talking about the importance of SELF-LOVE!

Wishing you a happy and healthy Valentine’s Day. Okay maybe gluten-free chocolate isn’t exactly on the menu, but we hope you celebrate LOVE not only today but every day of the year!! I'm sure you also had some time to satisfy your sweet tooth too!

If getting fit or improving your health is on your "resolution" list this year, you're not alone. More than 80% of people feel the same way every year. But how do we keep our resolutions real ... this is how:

I've been insanely busy with my full-time job, No Tummy Mommy and day-to-day mommy duties that I just need to stop and take a breather. I am now making a promise to myself to set aside 5 minutes a day to meditate ... and believe all mothers can relate and benefit from just a few minutes of meditation each day.

Thank you so much to the ladies of Dress Your Guests (DYG) for featuring us on their amazing blog that is composed of everything from fashion to fitness, but all around fun!

We just got back from a week in the Dominican and had a chance to relax and reset! We did have some time to put in some short workouts, but we didn't let them get in the way of beach time. 

I had a lot of fun talking health and fitness with #TheLocalView - love seeing how the community is finding ways to keep our families active!

It was such a blast being a guest expert on Social Common live YouTube show. These mamas are so hilarious and tell it as it is --- NO FILTER! 

Selfhood to me involves stimulating myself mentally and physically. It's important to me to stay active and set an example for my daughter so she understands the benefits of exercise. Mentally, selfhood means continuing to allow myself time to learn and giving myself time to read about things that interest me and stimulate my brain. 

I started this company inspired to help other mothers be happier and healthier. I never believed it would be where it is today. I still work a full-time job and stay up to ridiculous hours of the night working away, but I know it's all worth it!
