Oh the drama! We’re eating dinner last night and Enzo goes into a spaz and runs to the bathroom hysterical. Turns out his bottom front tooth was suddenly loose. He cried and whined through dinner and we eventually decided that dinner was done for him and he wanted to save his dinner for breakfast. He [...]
Oh boy…I spent a little over 2 hours on a grocery trip that didn’t even buy a week’s worth of food. I never realized how much dairy and/or food containing any form of milk products my kids eat. No wonder we don’t have picky eaters; we only ever buy the foods my kids eat…dairy and [...]
It’s so overwhelming to read up on diet alternatives for kids like Enzo. While there’s no guarantee it will help, alot of the stuff we’ve read seems to point that it helps with some of the symptoms/behaviors that SPD exhibit. He’s not autistic but SPD is on the same spectrum. And even tho he hasn’t [...]
Any of the SPD families out there successfully implement a gluten-free diet for their chiild? I know “success” is relative but I guess what I mean is that you saw a definite change and improvement in your child. Or just other families that follow a gluten-free diet. Anyone have any insight on SPD and the [...]

Really?? We walk in a restaurant (any place really that has a lot of random unorganized noise) and it’s too loud for him. It’s really not all that loud but too loud for him nonetheless. He looks funny, still cute tho (Thank you Lord for such a cute face!). But hey I’m not complaining, especially [...]
Enzo craves being snuggled, squished and rolled…some days more than others. So when he asked to be rolled up in this crazy soft blanket, it was a welcomed request on this particular morning. Yes, our day had barely started and we were more than ready to be squished. He has his pj’s on to prove [...]
Dear Confused Florida Weather, The chill in the air you are so graciously providing is turning my Enzo into a sensory mess. Please make up your mind – cold or warm? Better yet, how about leaving us with consistently beautiful, yet breezy, spring weather…one that will leave Enzo focusing his sensory energies elsewhere. =) Love, [...]
[via SPD Foundation] I found these today on the Sensory Processing Disorder Foundation website. They have these to print out as cards for over-whelmed SPD parents. Where was this 3 years ago? haha would have been so much easier than trying to explain something I couldn’t understand either. HOWEVER, now that its been almost 3 [...]
