A B O U T C A L V I N...






Meet my son, my love, my muse - Calvin (we call him "Cal").  What an honour to be his mother! This little one is so full of life.  The title of this blog "Curious Cal" fits his personality so well.  Staying home with mom and dad is nice and all, but his true colours show themselves best when we're out and about.  My "curious" little man wants to see it all - people, places, you name it!  When we travel to a busy mall or a bustling airport, he is truly in his element - observing, listening, learning.  He loves to be engaged whether he is familiar with you or not.  Sing to him, and you have his full attention!  His favourite hobbies include (but are not limited to) reading with mama, playing "peek-a-boo", visiting his grandparents, cuddling with his parents and attending playgroup.  Oh, and he loves to hold the channel changer - don't even think about turning the news on dad!  

Come visit us at our blog as often as you like.  We would love to share more of our adventures with you!

W E L C O M E




Hello! My name is Samantha.  I am a new mother to my beautiful baby Calvin. 

Six months ago I was living the usual "daily grind" in a fast-paced job where 9a.m. - 6p.m. was the norm five days a week.  The best part of each day was coming home to my loving man Ben and enjoying some late night eats while watching the latest flick on Netflix.  Since becoming a mama, things have changed a bit (to say the least!).  Purchasing countless books from Chapters' "Parenthood" section couldn't prepare me for the adventure I am now embarking on.  I'm learning day-by-day how to navigate this new life of mine and I have to say, I think i'm doing a pretty good job!  He even seems to enjoy my company! 

I'm loving motherhood with all of its glorious ups and downs.  Learn with me or leave me your expert tips.  Any and all feedback is welcome and appreciated.  

Most importantly, thank you for coming, you are always welcome!
