Welcome back! Be sure to check out my Email Newsletter. Thanks for visiting!

A few weeks ago I got an email alerting me that I had earned more Stitch Fix credit through my referral link. I was excited to order another box and see what they would choose for me now that I’ve dropped quite a bit of weight this year.

Five Great Products for Kids With Sensory Issues

April 6, 2018 By: Stephanie2 Comments

The first time a professional told me my son had Sensory Processing Disorder (SPD) was when he was two years old. He’s eleven now, so we’ve been navigating this world for almost a decade. Today I wanted to recommend a few products for kids with sensory issues that our family actually used and loved. I know when you first find out that you are dealing with a diagnosis like Autism or SPD, it can be very overwhelming–and expensive!–to try to figure out which products you actually want to try. Of course, you don’t have to have a diagnosis to find these products helpful.

How to Make Slime Without Borax

April 4, 2018 By: Stephanie1 Comment

Are your kids into slime too? My girls are OBSESSED with this stuff. They have turned the kids’ bathroom into a chemistry lab. But, unfortunately a lot of the recipes they find online include things that we don’t keep on hand, like borax and contact lens solution. We don’t have that stuff, so they needed learn how to make slime with things we do have. This easy two ingredient slime comes together very quickly and the girls had fun squishing it around.  [Read more…]
