Pano view today ⚾️⚫️⚪️ #rogerscentre #toronto #bluejays #panorama

Hello, Toronto! Fish out of water in this place but what a beautiful day to be outside. ☀️🐦☀️ My only other baseball game was an LA Dodgers game (Yup. That long ago.) at Dodgers Stadium in LA at the age of 12. #workthings #bluejays #afirstforeverything

I love my son’s artwork. That is all. 🤓🖤✨ #rumiMB #weekendlife #qualitytime #threeyearsold #art #expression

Family night @missthingshawaiian🏝💛🍹Sooo yummy 🤗 #rumiMB #famjam #family

Yesterday right after pick up time at daycare... Me: Did you have a good day today?

Rumi softly replied: Yeah... my Mommy picked me up. (for the record, I’m not always the one picking him up)
Or at bedtime and he hears Rudy walking/moving around the house and he says to me: “That’s my Daddy.” ♥️😭🥰 #rumiMB #threeyearsold #igettobehismama #sweetness #thesimplethings #thingsiwanttoremember #motherhood #parentlife #home #mamalife

My sick day view from bed. Do I put artwork up on this wall under the chandelier or keep it clean? It’s next to the large mirror so it feels odd to hang something right next to it. 💭🏡🤔 #manquilahome #bedroom #bedroomdecor #oldhouse #smallspaces #homedecor #home

I’m now sick so Rudy made the best soup. 🐖🐓♥️🌿🌶🌽 #longweekend #soup #love #home #sickness #sigh #chefathome #chefrudystirahan #chefrudyboquila

Summer ease.✨ He was softly singing his own “Let’s go to the park” song while we ate dinner with @pancancooks. So afterwards, we did. ✨ #feelingbetter #rumiMB #nowmamaissick #ootd #citykid #threeyearsold #torontokids #summerevening #parkhangs

Still trying to figure out storage solutions. We are always purging the unnecessary crap and we really try our best to be conscious/mindful shoppers. I consider seasonless, timeless, ethical, quality clothes more desirable than ever. But this is not enough storage space for two. A work in progress, for sure.👖🧥👟 #manquilahome #smallspaces #citylife #wip #diyhomedecor #urbandwellers #oldhouses #needarollingrack #justalittlemorestorage
