Dr. Bloom’s Chewable Teething Jewelry and Sensory Tools
Most Moms like choices. I am no different that way: I am all about choices and options and being able to make the best and smartest products and brands available to my family and to me extended family of friends here on Twitter, Blogger and Facebook. When I find a product I like I have to share. Dr. Bloom’s chewable jewels are worth sharing. Most who know me also know that I have a daughter with sensory issues and some special needs. This is my daughter Ainsley (seen above). She has sensory processing disorder and a number of other assets and challenges. She is also a chewer. Before we figured…

Monday Mingle: July 11 and Driving Distractions
Hi there and Happy Monday Mingle. I did this one on the fly today and couldn’t recall question 2. So here is question two in print. Q2. Where do you go to relax or have peace and quiet.? I used to go the bathroom, but my kids often bust in or slip notes through the door or holler loudly on other side of door, so no escape there. Once in awhile I now use the YMCA as my quiet place. Workout time equals quiet time. So if you see me at the YMCA back away slowly.

Radisson Resort Orlando-Celebration
The main pool near the grotto with 40 foot waterslide and one of the buildings in the background. Vacation silliness and the billboard near the kiddie pool. Ping Pong near the activity area and warm pool Overview: On our second big family trip to Disney and the Orlando area we chose to stay at an economical family friendly place. Our first family trip three years ago was epic fun and really incomparable because we stayed at a Disney Moderate Resort called Port Orleans. Port Orleans was a bit more expensive than our usual accommodations, but it was Disney A+ service all the way. The Radisson was not that trip. Nor…

Tropical Traditions Virgin Coconut Oil : a review and some thoughts about tipping points
When I first received this product from Tropical Traditions for review I was a bit taken aback. It is a jar of Virgin Coconut Oil and I will confess at the risk of sounding foolish, it came with no instructions and I assumed it was a skin care product. I saw nutritional information on the side and that made me wonder. Also the consistency of the product was well – a bit lumpy and wrong for skin care. I read the nutritional information two or three times and may have even tried to see if I could use it as a moisturizer (not saying I did or anything because…

Wonder + Simply Free Blog Tour and Early Canada Day
This year we plan to be out of the country for our Canada Day celebration (well at least for the day that Canada Day actually falls on.) That will be odd because we often spend Canada Day at Niagara Falls or at home having a big party. See our family does summer big with multiple birthdays and anniversaries and cottage time and barbequing is a huge part of that tradition. This year though we had a chance to participate in several barbeques leading upto the big day and we helped host one for friends and family, with the help of Wonder + Simply Free and Mom Central Canada.We held the…

The Thrill of Last Minute Travel
My kids, my husband and I have had a lot of adventures and they have been successful and fun, save for one very difficult flight back from Jamaica a couple of years ago when my youngest who has sensory processing disorder, had a major meltdown at 30,000 feet in the air. But we dealt with it and moved on. (And so did some of the passengers sitting nearby.) My daughter was very tired and frankly a flight attendant might have avoided the whole panicky episode if he hadn’t been so insistent that my darling girl cram her blanket and favourite teddy bear into the seatbelt with her. Ainsley is super touch sensitive and that…
