Ever since my third child was born, I’ve had an on and off struggle with my weight. I say on and off because I’ve finally reached a point in my life where I’m comfortable with my body image. This was something that I had struggled with through my teens and through my twenties. My self esteem was a wreck and I had a pretty messed up view of how I was supposed to look. Once I got comfortable with that though, it was easier for me to accept that I had gained weight. For one, I was finally in my optimal weight area. But then I started to gain more weight. And, according to the BMI chart at the doctor’s office, I was borderline overweight….

Christmas is two months away though we’ve been in Christmas mode for quite some time here. I am the person who will listen to Christmas music all year. And I wouldn’t mind having a room dedicated to just Christmas. But I digress. Squeaker is not yet old enough to write a Christmas list but she certainly has no problems pointing to stuff. We’re trying that method for her when it comes to picking out her list of gifts for both Christmas and her birthday. One of her recent interests is Doc McStuffins so we’ll start with that and have similar toddler handpicked gift ideas over the course of this week.

I absolutely love chocolate chip banana bread and this recipe is so easy! It started with a search for banana bread recipes that didn’t use flour as I was trying to make a gluten free option for a church friend. I did find a few recipes that I’ll try out in the near future. But this particular recipe is not gluten free. This recipe yields a regular sized loaf of banana bread but since I was making mine to take to church, I ended up using two loaf pans. Actually I can’t really call them loaf pans but they sure are handy to have! I love easy baking recipes. Like my French toast biscuit bake. A lot of the prep-work on those can be done…

Parenting an Autistic Child

The Year That I Made Santa Claus Cry

Holidays with a non-verbal autistic child have never been easy. In fact, some holidays have fallen by the wayside completely- I’m looking at you Easter and Halloween. That’s not for a lack of trying because we did try. And maybe some holidays were salvaged or at least scaled down. Easter just couldn’t work for us and Halloween required a little bit of savvy on my part. Thanksgiving… well, we’re mostly okay. It’s a food related holiday, after all, and as long as we had food that was okay for Sweet B; we were fine. I just never expected for her to eat what everyone else was eating. Knowing what I know, it just wasn’t realistic. So that brings me to Christmas. My favorite holiday and…

“This post was sponsored by Nature Made® as a part of an Ambassador Program for Influence Central.” Alright ladies, let’s be real for a minute here. If you’re a mom, how often do you really take time for yourself? How often do you do something that’s just for you? For that matter, what steps are you taking to take care of you? I’m not the best at self-care and I’m really not the best at maintaining a good level of health and fitness. I can provide you with a list of excuses and reasons. But, aside from a general lack of motivation at times; it boils down to one thing. Time. Maybe I just need to improve my time management skills in general but it’s…
