One More Summer Day!

July 31, 2019July 31, 2019 ~ thespeechmom ~ 2 Comments

We are all trying to squeeze the last few moments of sweet freedom out of Summer.  Everyone is heading to the beach, a cabin by the lake, or their favorite camp site.  Well, we are anyways. When we venture into our Summer excursions, there are always a few cheap and easy activities I keep on … Continue reading One More Summer Day!

La la la Lemonade

June 14, 2019June 14, 2019 ~ thespeechmom ~ 1 Comment

As we established in the last blog post, Gus gets speech therapy now.  He is into it.  And he is already making progress.  I am not going to lie, it is kind of fun to be on the other end of speech therapy.  And to be 100% honest, for the first time in my career, … Continue reading La la la Lemonade

Gus goes to Therapy

May 1, 2019May 1, 2019 ~ thespeechmom ~ Leave a comment

A few weeks ago Gus was telling us a story and I thought, "Gol, his speech is kind of a mess.  I should get that fixed.  It's probably because of those big beautiful cheeks making it laborous to talk."  And then naturally I went on with my day. The next day John asked me "Do … Continue reading Gus goes to Therapy

The Case of the Mystery Pre-School Day

March 8, 2019 ~ thespeechmom ~ 2 Comments

We have a little issue at our house.  No one knows what they actually did at school.  No one knows even ONE SINGLE THING that occured at preschool. It drives me insane.  So I put on my therapist pants to take a closer look at the situation.  Because that is what I do. And I … Continue reading The Case of the Mystery Pre-School Day

Gus and the Giant Tonsils

January 17, 2019 ~ thespeechmom ~ Leave a comment

Whenever I forget how difficult it is to have a child who doesn't eat, God does this really great thing where he makes one of my kids have my issues.  And then I get frustrated and angry and tell my kids to pull it together - and then I realize I am doing the things … Continue reading Gus and the Giant Tonsils

Inexpensive Ways to Work on Colors

September 27, 2018 ~ thespeechmom ~ Leave a comment

The boys are learning about colors at school.  They love it.  Gus loves it most.  He is taking his color days very seriously.  He especially took green day seriously.  Because for once we had a pair of green shorts.  This was so much better than the navy, gray, or black shorts we make him typically … Continue reading Inexpensive Ways to Work on Colors

Stage 5 Baby Foods

September 12, 2018September 12, 2018 ~ thespeechmom ~ Leave a comment

When Hank first started on puree, I made them.  Because I had one child.  And that child was only going to get the best.  So I steamed pees and boiled carrots.  I pureed until every mini mason jar in the city had been filled with mushy love.  I thawed and warmed to perfection.  And he … Continue reading Stage 5 Baby Foods

Every Last Drop of Summer

I took the month of July off from writing.  Because once in a while it is okay to take a break, right?  I hope none of you noticed.  Not because I hope no one missed my ramblings, but because I hope you were all out - enjoying every minute of Summer with your family and … Continue reading Every Last Drop of Summer

6 month Development

May 22, 2018May 22, 2018 ~ thespeechmom ~ Leave a comment

My friend Britt, from Brittzinkpt.com, and I teamed up to pull together our knowledge on developmental norms. We are starting early at 6 months.  What should a little one be doing at 6 months?  Great question! Obviously your 6 month old child is not ordering you around, asking where their shoe is, or telling you … Continue reading 6 month Development
