I’m happy to report that for the first time since Simone has been born, she does not have cold urticaria. What is cold urticaria?

Since Simmi can’t eat potato chips or corn chips on the GAPS Diet, Dom has been making her the most amazing alternative chips.
We slice butternut squash very thin with a mandolin, brush them with a little organic olive oil and sea salt and dehydrate them for 12 hours in the oven on the “warm” setting. [...]
Yesterday we celebrated our Christmas. A few last minute things were were purchased for decorating the house and it was so wonderful to finally see our dining room starting to take shape. I wanted so much to make all the gifts this year, but with all the work we were doing in the house, it [...]
Yesterday Vicki, Simmi and I took a ride up to Sam’s Club to pick up lamb for the 28th (We’ll be celebrating Christmas then) and then to Williams Sonoma and Kohls. For those of you who know me, I do NOT like going to the stores, especially during the holidays, but I made an exception [...]

Happy Birthday Simone! Thank you for being in our lives and making each day so special for us. Even though you don’t understand what a birthday is, you like the birthday song! We’ve been practicing with you to say “I’m four” and to hold up your four fingers. Sometimes you can do it, sometimes you [...]
As my thoughts begin to migrate towards the end of summer, I’m left wondering, “Where do I find great therapists?” I gave Simmi a break from her therapies because she was no longer receptive to anything they had to give, she was angry, hostile and would just run and hide after a few minutes of [...]
How time flies my sweet Simone! You were born on June 10th, three years ago, and from the moment I held you, I knew that you were such a treasure. Oh how you have grown from that tiny 6 lbs 11oz sweet pea with strawberry blond hair and deep beautiful eyes! While your red hair [...]
