I received this item at no cost to facilitate my review. All opinions remain my own. We’ve been using the same old 2-person backpacking tent for year now, and it was Trail Dad’s before that. It was compact enough, big enough, good enough – when it was just the two of us. Kirby doesn’t take up a lot of space… Read more »
I received these items at no cost to facilitate my review. All opinions remain my own. Ever since I published the guest post “10 Things to Know Before Fishing with Kids” by Adam from Cast For Fish, I’ve been itching to fish with Huckleberry. I can vividly remember my first fishing experience as a child, in the Muskokas with my… Read more »
“Attitude is the difference between an ordeal and an adventure.” ~ Bob Bitchin We love adventures! Big ones, small ones, close ones, far ones! And all of our adventures wouldn’t be nearly as fun if it weren’t for our toddler, Huckleberry the Trail Baby (yeah, I know, he’s not a baby anymore). And that quote above rings oh-so-true when adventuring… Read more »
I received this item at no cost to facilitate my review. All opinions remain my own. I know this post has “back-to-school” in the title of it, but let’s pretend that isn’t happening, okay? I want the summer to go on forever. I want more hikes, more camping, more road trips, more boat cruises, more sleepovers at the cottage, more… Read more »
A note from Maman on the Trail: Welcome to “Meemaw Mentions” – a new semi-regular blog series brought to you by my mom/Huckleberry’s Meemaw. Meemaw will use this blog series to mention products she likes, tips and tricks for a healthy and active lifestyle, and words of wisdom from a mom of 3 daughters and a Meemaw of 4 (almost… Read more »
I received these items at no cost to facilitate my review. All opinions remain my own. Have you ever packed yourself a bottle filled with ice cold water for an adventure, gotten to your destination after slogging up a steep rocky hill in the humid air, taken a swig of your refreshment only to find that it wasn’t at all refreshing,… Read more »
I received this item at no cost to facilitate my review. All opinions remain my own. Last summer I decided I could go the cheap/lazy route and just use my same old bikini as a nursing bikini. I mean, how hard is it to pull it up or down when Huckleberry needs to nurse? Well, it wasn’t difficult, but it… Read more »
Huckleberry would be happy if all we ever let him play with were sticks and stones, but those are not great indoor toys. And although our social media feeds may not suggest it, we do spend time inside. So, what does Huckleberry play with when he’s not in the great outdoors? Not much, actually. We did a very good job… Read more »
I received this item at no cost to facilitate my review. All opinions remain my own. Huckleberry has always been incredibly talented at napping on the go. We’ve never avoided adventure because it was nap time, knowing that we could guarantee a trail or car nap while out and about. However, when we moved from mostly using our Onya Baby… Read more »
I received this item at no cost to facilitate my review. All opinions remain my own. The one thing I cannot stand is hair in my face. I don’t wear my hair down very often for this reason. And on days when I do wear my hair down, it’s only for about half of the day because I can’t take… Read more »
Itchy, scratchy, red bumps and blotches all over your body! No one wants that! And no one wants that for their child either. But when you spend as much time in the outdoors as we do, you’re bound to end up with a few, and let’s keep it to a few, shall we? We have gotten pretty good at avoiding… Read more »
Having an ill-fitting bra can be a nightmare! But how does a new mom know what size nursing bra to buy (especially when her breasts change size almost hourly!)? I’m currently on my 3rd size of nursing bra, now at almost 20 months postpartum, and I’m still not back to my pre-pregnancy bra size. It’s really incredible what your body can do to… Read more »
I received this item at no cost to facilitate my review. All opinions remain my own. Summer is in full swing around here! This means lots of extra time outside soaking up the sunshine! Except that we don’t want to soak up the sun, not really. My sore peeling shoulders and Huckleberry’s very pink cheeks can tell you why we… Read more »
