While navigating my eldest son's difficulty with peach baby food ("difficulty" is putting it nicely, he would projectile vomit his entire stomach contents) and how it effects his little brother. I slowly discovered that he was reacting the same way with other foods as well. Check out the video above for the story in more detail. Here's a summary. It took some digging and I don't remember exactly how I came across this, but I finally made the connection that the foods he was reacting to were all high in Sorbitol. Sorbitol is a sugar alcohol found in stone fruits and a few other things including peaches, pears, apples, apricots, plums, and prunes. A Sorbitol Intolerance can cause bloating, cramps, diarrhea, and/or nausea.

I'm so tired of seeing boring wipes containers. The prints some companies have been coming out with are something but they're still rather basic and not at all personal. I got a chip on my shoulder the other day about this and decided to do something about it. The good news is: I got what I wanted. The bad news is: well, you'll see... First I gathered my supplies. I used: a plain, wipes containers (obviously) some pretty fabric I had in storage Kitchen shears The first tube of super glue I found in the junk drawer Note: There's no specific reason to use this specific glue. It worked for me, but I didn't try other so they may very well work too. An upside-down picture of the super glue I used because reasons Let's dive in! It was a pretty straightforward process. I glued it down on the first side, then the second, third, and fourth, folding the final edge so that it laid down to cover the first edge. Then on the bottom I folded the fabric at the corners to make s

Touring my boys' closet and changing table and showing how I organized them to hold both boys things. Separating my toddler's pull ups and my baby's diapers in the main drawer with the wipes, diaper cream, air freshener, lotion, bulb syringe, and rectal thermometer. The first small drawer has the baby's socks and shoes (cause his are small) and the second small drawer has the toddler's socks. The last compartment has the garbage can and spare bags. Then showing the closet layout for both boys, each having a side with a mutual, hanging shelving divider in the middle. The floor has large bins for the large items and the upper shelf has small and medium sized containers and all of the other miscellaneous things.       Check out my channel and follow my blog for more organization videos and my crazy life with 2 little boys!

Join me for a demonstration on how I've been cleaning toys since this pandemic started. I wash, sanitize, and sort fabric toys (plushies, blankets, and costumes), plastic and metal toys, baby toys and teethers, electronic toys, large toys, and ride ons. My boys' dad has been going to work throughout this pandemic and due to health conditions of at least one member of the family, I haven't been playing around with cleaning. The boys toys (hehe, that rhymed) are a big part of that, especially with a teething baby putting everything in his mouth.
