I really should be packing up our house right now, instead I’m on the couch doing anything but getting ready for our move in 7 days. I’m thankful that my husband is not a procrastinator (like myself). He has been busily packing boxes, moving them to the house we will be moving into next week… Read Full Post

Today we met with part of the Feeding Team, the Clinical Psychologist. Although she was running a little behind, she was very nice and we started out the appointment like we always do: Jackson in a high chair eating. I didn’t think to bring foods he doesn’t like because it is always so hit or… Read Full Post

Sorry I haven’t been posting much! I’ve mentioned before that we were trying to sell our 2 bedroom townhouse now that a new baby is on the way. I don’t want to jinx anything, but it looks like we have sold it and we close next month! So, that’s where I’ve been: packing up all… Read Full Post

I have been a computer/technology geek since I laid eyes on my first computer at 4 years old, an Apple IIC. Since then I have always looked for the latest and greatest technology. When I was pregnant with Jackson 2 years ago, I was greatly disappointed with the video baby monitor market. I wanted a… Read Full Post

After our OT (Occupational Therapy) appointment on Monday, we were given some homework for Jackson to work on. Besides the obvious, eating more, we are also going to do exercises or “heavy work” with him to strengthen his upper body. I ordered bean bags from Amazon for him to lift above his head and put… Read Full Post

Since Jackson is obsessed with spending time outside (or “side” as he calls it), I found this “Tiny Tots” baseball set at Target and knew it would be perfect for summer days outside. New England is getting slammed with thunder storms today, so we decided to set it up for the first time indoors and… Read Full Post

Dear Jackson, You are now 18 months old! I can’t believe you are a year and a half old already. You’ve turned into a little boy with a fun personality and you are a joy to be around. Your favorite things are your stuffed dog, Coco, and your basketball hoop. You could spend all day and… Read Full Post
