I have started and restarted this post so many times that I have lost count. I've been a horrible blogger. Honestly I've just been bad at social media in general lately... and by lately I mean the last few years. Once upon a time I was fairly decent at keeping things updated, but after the … Continue reading Dusting Off the Cobwebs…

New Year… New Blog?
It's been awhile. Far too long really. Over two years if you want to get nitty gritty about it. I didn't mean for that to happen. I really didn’t. It just kinda did. One day we were moving out of our first apartment here in Washington to the next, far superior, one. Then Halloween happened, … Continue reading New Year… New Blog?
Typical Parent Worries…
Just because an Autism diagnosis didn't have a major effect on our lives doesn't mean I don't worry about the Boyo's future. As I mentioned in last weeks blog, I believe that Boyo is exactly who he was meant to be - but that doesn't mean I can't be freaked out about his future like … Continue reading Typical Parent Worries…
Hello Again…
We are still in California. Our realtor seems to be getting contacted by a lot of people who swear they really love the place and don't care about the space rent, only once they come to see the house, we never hear from them again. It's more than a little disappointing and honestly it's really … Continue reading Hello Again…
Dropping In…
It's been a crazy crazy week this week. A lot of things are changing - some far more rapidly than we planned on - so to give you a quick run down of everything that is happening: A month ago, the Boyo was diagnosed as Autistic (which wasn't that big of a surprise, honestly...) The … Continue reading Dropping In…
A Little Late…
...thankfully it's not for an important date! (That was far funnier in my head... oh well...) Anywho, I'm going to keep this week's update short again. I'm sorry to do this two weeks in a row, but my toddler has been pulling this 'I don't need a nap' bit this week - even though it's clear … Continue reading A Little Late…
The Mysterious Door…
The Boyo has an ear infection (apparently it is still possible to get them even if you have tubes in your ears) so life is a little chaotic right now while we deal with that. Normally his mood gets better once he get started on antibiotics, but this time around it's like his attitude is … Continue reading The Mysterious Door…
Of ASD, Therapy, and Picky Eaters…
I can't recall if I've shared it here, or if I posted it someplace else, but Boyo is considered High Risk (depending on which professional you talk to) for Autism due to his early birth and family history. For awhile there we were pretty damn sure that a diagnosis was inevitable because his speech was … Continue reading Of ASD, Therapy, and Picky Eaters…
Pootastrophy
There's a story going around on Facebook about a roomba running into some dog poop in the middle of the night and causing a big big mess. Well, I'm here to tell you that you don't need a roomba or dog poop to have a poonami of epic proportions - you just need a 2 … Continue reading Pootastrophy
The Terrible Twos
The Boyo turned two this weekend. Two! It feels like just a few weeks ago he was this tiny baby. And now he's this little boy who likes dragging me around the house by my finger, shrieking at the top of his lungs, climbing on things, and giving me gray hairs. We celebrated his second … Continue reading The Terrible Twos
