I just submitted this to the Udi’s recipe contest on their facebook page! Chewy is allergic to everything. I finally found a cookie recipe that he loves that tastes like real cookies! These are Gluten, Milk, Casien, Soy, Nut free. Gluten Free Chewy Oatmeal Granola Cookies Print Recipe type: Dessert Author: Emily Vanek Prep time: 15 mins Cook time: 10 mins Total time: 25 mins Ingredients 1 cup Coconut Oil 1 cup Brown Sugar 1/2 cup Granulated Sugar 1 tsp Vanilla 1 tsp Baking Soda 1/2 tsp Salt 1 tsp Cinnamon 2 large Eggs 1 tsp Xanthan Gum 1-1/2 cups...
How I wonder what I’d ever do without this toy! Chewy is not one to have a favorite toy, blankie, etc. He likes trucks, cars, trains, things with wheels that either talk or make noise. He usually takes the 800 stuffed animals I collect for him and uses them to throw over our balcony. But not Scout! I saw Twinkle Twinkle Little Scout by leapfrog at the TimeToPlay Holiday Showcase and instantly fell in love. I thought Chewy would like it okay, but totally underestimated the power of this little singing puppy. This toy is in my sons hands just...
How young is too young to give birth? My husband asked me that today after reading an article online about a 10 yr old giving birth in Spain. I thought about it and said 15 was too young. Really, I still feel I was too young at 20 years (and one day!) but I do know of a few people who, at 16, were perfectly capable of raising their child. Yes, they had help and the love and support of family and friends, they did it and the kids are perfectly well adjusted children. My husband is an Anesthesiologist (say...
It’s true! It’s also one of their products. LOL The perfectly named Happy Family product line just introduced something I cannot live without. Gluten Free Puffs! They have no Soy, Dairy, Corn or Gluten. Thank you Thank you! Since Chewy is allergic to 3 outta those 4, finally there is a puff/snack for him on the market. Before we knew of all of his allergies, and before we realized the extent of his feeding delays, we used their frozen foods religiously. Their purees, frozen foods and puffs are of the highest quality. I never worried about feeding him just a...
I was given a Baby Dipper set to review and let me start by saying this product is not life changing, but definitely meal changing! What I noticed first is the slanted design of the bowl. This allows for you to get every last drop without having to tilt the bowl and scrape the food down. Genius! Next is the great shape of the utensils. My 2.5 yr old has special needs and cannot seem to be able to feed himself well with the straight spoons, but he could get these from the bowl to his mouth much easier. I...
I have to say, I’m quite shocked at some of the things people google and find my blog because of. Some of the top searches are: Androidz Toys – This is due to my review of the product Housework Sucks – Let’s face it, it DOES suck. This is the one that surprised me… Pictures of Toddlers with Hypotonia This is due to the fact that in one of my posts, I mentioned my youngest son being a yoga master since he has such low muscle tone in his legs and feet. He’s able to contort himself in some positions...

I have a NEED to do something with my hands. I went to college to study graphic design, but quickly discovered I didn't want to just design. I loved the production end just as much, if not more. I didn't want to just come up with the idea, I needed the follow through. I loved the messy printing end, but didn't want to give up the creative design end. So I took a break to figure things out. My parents are still bitter. And I got married, and had babies and decided what I REALLY wanted to do was be...
We had a blast at the walk today! I’ll get pictures up soon, my camera died literally minutes before the walk! There were over 100 walkers and Team ColoradoMoms raised almost $500! Chewy didn’t “walk”, I pushed him in the stroller, but he seemed to have fun. One of the highlights for my boys was when we saw turtles swimming in the lake. The boys loved it! When we got there we signed in and got our rockin’ yellow shirts! We waiting for the rest of our team to show up (my MIL, 2 BIL’s and their families) then it...
