Mama in the City: It's Holiday Time!

Well, Hello There!

Mama in the City since 2008 and blogging since 2009!

Hi! I'm Andrea, a 30 something girl who loves living the downtown lifestyle and didn't want to give it up once I started a family. I live in beautiful Vancouver city right along the seawall and three years ago I had my first baby.

My first apartment baby is now a full on boy and we struggle with finding space in our condo for his growing toy collection. I'm also a new mum to our second apartment baby, born January 13, 2012!

I have a husband who is an excellent cook and takes amazing photos. I work as a labor and delivery nurse and really love the work that I do and gave birth to baby #2 at my work place.

I use this space to write about my family and to share my passion about breastfeeding, birth and parenting. I have a fantastic purse collection and have loved watching it grow, mostly lovely gifts over the years from my husband. I currently have a closet full of purses that are too small or impractical to fit a diaper or sippy cup in, and so they are on hold for future years.

Have a question or a comment? Email me! I also love to read comments left on posts, so feel free to leave me a note!

It's Holiday Time!

Posted by Unknown November 26, 2009

Tomorrow is a special day for me! My two sisters are making the trek to my neck of the woods and we are having our annual sisters holiday shopping trip. We have plans to go and see the holiday musical 'White Christmas' at The Stanley here in Vancouver.

My husband will never ever go to a musical and so I am happy to have my sisters to go with. Especially as we have a whole evening out on the town planned. Over the weekend there are shopping trips planned through out and I have my Zip car booked so we can trek around the city.

I am really excited that my older sister Sarah has offered to help put up our Christmas tree. She knows me too well and knows how much I hate putting Christmas lights on the tree. She is going to be bringing my 5 year old niece with her and the little cousins will get time to play together.

Then there is my little sis Glynis. She is going to be coming and going through the weekend and is always so helpful with entertaining Ben and so I think that some actual shopping just might get done on this holiday shopping trip.
