In our home being a nerd is GOOD and my son is perhaps the nerdiest of all. All of his favorite things are those things that are often considered to be nerdy- Nintendo, Super Mario…

In the last 'Lessons in Cloth', we talked types of diapers. So, now that you've decided on the type of diapers you're using, it's time to decide what to use for stuffing/absorbency. Honestly, you can use anything that will hold liquid in your diapers, but there are definitely so…

I was sent the single of "My Telephone Number is" by Genevieve Goings to review as a influencer with Entertainment New Media Network.  I have been compensated for this post but my thoughts and opinions are always my own.

When people learn of my son's autism diagnosis one of the first questions often asked is, "Is he high functioning or low functioning?"

These are terms used frequently within the autism community, but today I'm going to be entirely honest...I cannot STAND them. I realize they have …

Bath time with baby is fun isn't it? Both of my kids have been big bath fans...splashing around, having fun, getting clean (okay, perhaps not the getting cleaned part). But do you ever take a look at yourself afterwards and find yourself wondering who got the most…

As some of you may recall, shortly before I became pregnant with Finley, our family experienced an early miscarriage. If you have ever experienced a miscarriage, my heart goes out to you. If you have not, I pray that you never will. It is a pain that I would not wish upon my worst enemy. No matter …

Another month has come and gone...and while I wish I could say with March came warm weather, unfortunately here in Indiana it was still mostly cold! We even had more snow over spring break. We have had a few warm days, and have taken full advantage of them when they came. Here's a brief look b…
