Jem Moment It’s been a long while since I posted a ‘Jem Moment’ but I think it may be time to try to bring them back with a little more regularity 😉 To start off their renewal, I’d like to give a shout-out to my in-laws. Not only did they travel to see us from [...]

Hello humans 😊
This is where you learn about me I suppose, though anyone reading this right now most likely knows all the boring details ;)
I am Jessica Rose Peters-Hagenouw.
(Always thought I'd be able to pronounce my married name but hey, life doesn't go as we plan.)
June 11, 1995, tis the day Robert and Bonnie Peters received the most adorable, amazing, wonderful, surprise 3rd child they could have dreamed of.
Speaking of being the third child, I have an older brother and an older sister.
Both of whom are married and have wee little families of their own, making 'Aunty Jess' another name I go by.
I grew up and have lived all of my years up till November 2015 in Saskatchewan, Canada.
Making summers that are extremely short and winters that never end, vast open spaces, northern lights, unthinkable amounts of mosquitoes, lakes, forests and people waving to you on the grid road all different things that mean = Home.
But Home is not where I'll be for some time.
My husband is a Dutchman, living in Europe.
Therefore I too have been living in Europe for the last few months.
The reason I started this little blog/journal/writing thing, is to document a bit of my "whole new world," for those at home who wont be awake at 3:00 am wanting to hear about how I couldn't find flour at the grocery store.
Thanks for stopping by and taking a peek into my little life 😊
The ‘Firsts’ Of Many!
Well, I never thought it would take me over 9 weeks to write a blog post about daily life 😅🙈 That being said, let’s just dive right in to this overview of Lakes first week home! No pun intended 😜 16th - (The evening) I finally opened up the gifts that had been left on the kitchen [...]
Preparing For Departure
Well, Baby H came into the world at 1:41 am on Tuesday, September 15th, 2020. He got to snuggle with his daddy and Grams and I for a little while before they took him for his first official check up. The nurse walked away with him, whispering sweet words and promises of singing to him [...]
Small Space Storage Solution
This little space beside the stairs in our homes entryway, was always been a bit of an eyesore and a convenient ‘catch all’ area that would look very messy, very fast 😬 We had the entry closet to store some things in but after putting a small freezer in there, that storage went away too. [...]
Aren’t You Excited ?! A Slightly Different Perspective On Pregnancy
I wrote this post a few days before Lake was actually born. I then mulled over it for a chunk of time, had my husband read it and also my mom. After they had both read it, I felt like maybe they were the only ones who should read it and it didn't need to be [...]
What’s In A Name…?
As many, or perhaps all of you know by now, we had a rather difficult time trying to find, agree and then settle on and confirm, a name for our small person 🙈 He didn’t have a name until his second day earth side and that caused the days following his birth to be a [...]
