A special journey with my blessings
You are doing okay, momma. There are days I really desperately need to hear this. There are days that E is screaming and losing control and I question if I am the mother he needs. If I am enough. Those days, I need someone to give me a hug (and if we are being honest …
Hey all! I am actually going to do two posts about our most recent vacation (to Florida) so that I can cover everything. This first post will be the highlights and the second one (look for it this week) will be about the logistics. and they were off! C was sick the whole week leading …
You may have followed the drama of last week and insurance. You can read it here if you need to catch up! It was exhausting and stressful. The recovery from three days of no ABA was also difficult. Super fun! I definitely did not want to spend last week that way. However, if this is …
I’m going to start with an I’m sorry – Life got busy this month and I didn’t have a backup for yesterday’s regular post. So it is coming a day late. Sick babies will do that to you. Every year, we go through the seasons Spring, Summer, Fall, Winter. I often find myself wishing that …

I’ve been on hold for three days. Yes, you read that right. For three, very long days I have been trying to sort out E’s latest insurance issue. You see, last month I received a letter. It said that E was approved for one type of insurance, another had ended (due to us making too …
“I feel so violated.” This was the yell that ended cloth diapering with E when he was about 10 months old. Hubs had gone to change his diaper and it wasn’t a fun one. He asked what he needed to do and I told him the routine. That night we went out and bought a …
For years, I have wanted to start a blog. For years, I have thought about sharing my thoughts, experiences and funny stories with the world. It took C’s diagnosis and Hubs pushing me to actually make this happen. I’m so glad I’m doing it though. I work part time from home. With one kid in …
The diaper bag scene has changed in the past eight years. When I first found out that I was pregnant I knew that I was willing to splurge on a good diaper bag. With A, I had gone through about 10 in the first 2.5 years of her life. At $25 a pop, that was …
