H      E      L     L    O!    

Welcome to our little world!

I'm so happy to have you here. I’m Emily Anne & this space is where I share slices from life as a new mama and wife and all the adventures that come with the territory. 

Mike and I met in Grad school, and depending on who you ask, it was love at first sight (I maintain I chased down the elevator so I could talk to him; he *says* he was playing hard to get ;) ) We were married in August 2014 in my sister’s backyard and welcomed our baby June in June 2015 (we had the name picked out before we were even pregnant so, a happy coincidence when she was born in June!).  We're looking forward to welcoming our second little in May 2017 (an NO, May is not a name that we have on the list!) We live in Ottawa with our Labrador Retriever Cliff. Life is pretty sweet <3

I started this blog in 2011 to capture our the moments outside of the 9-5 grind. (it's all still there by the way, although I absolutely cringe reading some of that earlier stuff!) blogging quickly became something I love to do,  and now that life is moving more quickly then ever, I'm so happy to have memories about motherhood and life with my family saved here for a rainy day. 

one more thing: This blog is used to be named after my grandma (Sparrow in the Treetop was one of her favourite songs ) but I was feeling the need for a change. 

Thank-you so much for being here. This is much more fun with friends!
