I'm Kristin.  I am a wife, designer, Christian and for now a SAHM.  My husband and I are parents to three kids- Dylan Archer, Kyler Jude and Noelle Rose. Despite the name, this isn’t a mommy blog and you won’t find sponsored content here. My target audience is actually my children when they grow up if they wish to reflect on their childhood so everything I share has them at the forefront of my mind and secondly those who wish to follow along my journey. I created this space to document my family's adventures and lessons I've learned along the way.  The Mom Jungle is a modern interpretation of both the family newsletter and scrapbook.  

I call this The Mom Jungle because motherhood is fun and messy, filled with laughter and sometimes heartache… it truly is a jungle out there!

Canada Day 2016

THE MOM JUNGLE
Celebrate
“... True North Strong and Free.”

This lyric from Canada's national anthem perfectly encapulates my native land.  Since living abroad, I have a newfound appreciation for my home.  From it's receptive multiculturalism, political and economic stability, overly polite culture ["sorry" about the not-so humble brag!], majestic scenery and yummy food [Mmm.... maple syrup or poutine anyone?], Canada is a truly magnificent place to live.

Before having kids, I would spend the day at the beach, followed by spectacular fireworks over the water. Fast-forward a few years, we decided the logistics of juggling the kids coupled with today's icky weather just wasn't worth it.  Instead we opted to have a quiet day at home as a family.  These simple moments with my loves are the ones I will treasure the most.

Happy Canada Day! 🇨🇦
